@ambar

The answer to your question is answered in the post above you.

Anyway, this is because all the B-Schools ( including IIM-I ) gives buffer calls in advance itself, so that there waitlist movement is the least.

Every school tries to keep ther waitlist movement to the least ( because that gives its status ). Imagine in one school the waitlist movement of 500 and in one school watlist mvement of 100. To an outsider he will think that the school having the waitlist movement of 100 is good as there are less number of students who leave that school than the school with the waitlist movement of 500.

Hope it clarifies something

Wht you say makes sense Gurjot, but,well, i kinda expected the indore WL to move a bit like MDI, and so seeing no movement was a bit of a shock... ...btw, i hope u recognize me, i'd given you a call the other day! ....You're Rahul Chidgopkar's friend, if i'm not wrong?

I know that the movement of all the IIM's are independent.
But it makes no sense that IIM A has a WL movement of 45 and at the same time Indore comes up with no movement at all!!!!

So all IIM hopes for this year are down the drains as far as i am concerned.

IIM-A might have given just a few extra calls expecting that not many people would leave an IIM-A call while IIM-I perhaps over the years has realized too well that people will leave it for all sorts of colleges (IIMs, FMSs and blah). So they give a large number of extra calls (confirmed ones that is) since a lot of W/L movements would only add to their work later on.




It matters not whether you win or lose; what matters is whether I win or lose.

Hi buddy...this is probably because of the OBC seats. IIM A do not give that much a buffer calls..because of the obvious reasons...but this time may be the OBC seats are vacant.
They are vacant in other IIMs too..but they give buffer calls.

This is what i think.

By the way i also am waitlisted in Indore

I was selected in IIM Indore.....and had paid the fees.......

But now my IIM Bangalore waitlist has been cleared...so i will be withdrawing my admission. Hope this gives some respite to the waitlisters.

I dont know how much waitlist is expected to move...but i gues some cancellations may happen now after first waitlist movement...

Thanks for the hopes buddy.
But i feel its better we are not optimistic about the waitlist movement.

If it does move then let it come as a pleasant surprise rather than waiting and then getting disappointed.

The next movement of waitlist will be notified on 6th of June.

Does anyone have any idea of how long will this waitlist process go on.
I mean when will they finalise on the list???
