Waitlisters thread for IIM Calcutta - 01-05-2008, 03:00 PM

This is the thread to track the waitlist movement for people like me who have been waitlisted for PGDM at IIMC batch 2008-10. It seems 7% of total seats have been waitlisted. All people who have been waitlisted or people who are not going to join IIMC please use this thread to help us. Thank You.

AFAIK, these are the ppl who prefer their A convert over C convert. Correct me if i am wrong.

Surfacer, paybacktime, tortured_soul(maybe), ankit_jn(maybe), Guta.Singh(maybe), avi_mba, parulbajaj

(maybe) ppl havent posted their preference, others are going to WIMWI.

This doesnt include ppl choosing IIMB over C, except parulbajaj.

My dad called IIMC and he was told the figure of 7%. I couldn't find the no. of seats in IIMC. I'm sure it must be there somewhere in the vast resources of PG.

Re: Waitlisters thread for IIM Calcutta - 01-05-2008, 04:26 PM

is it possible to find out the number of actual calls given? Bcoz if 450-500 calls have been given as was the case last year then chances of waitlisted students getting converted r very slim.
It seems to me that waitlists have been given this time round to fill up seats if they cant find enough students to fill the OBC quota
