Hi Indro,
I am a Mechanical and Production Engineer from Chennai , working as a Quality Manager for a Software company :-x for the past 15 months.
Nothin more from me........... just an ordinary Guy

a debut in CAT with Mocks really bring my Moral down after every time i hit them :....

Really didn't even Know about the existance such a Institute before I read abt it from PG and did some R&D . Great place to live is wat i feel .. But there are a lot of questions in my mind... What after Forest management... I don want to get into this corporate hell again Livin just for money.....
but still some confusions in my mind..
that's why asked ur long term objectives.so that i can see the various options out of Forest management.

I do agree people get in UN, World Bank and in SAMPARK i read about alumni at the Yale University too . But only 2 people from the college has made it to World bank and UN(data frm website sorry if I am wrong) and one into Yale. the sample seems to be very low..

What I wanna know is do we become really competent enough to get ourselves an international job with such responsibilities. Does IIFm gives you such a cuttin Edge. I know that we need a grass root work exp to make to UN but how about placements in grass root industries or NGOs; no stats are available in the sites(guide me if i am wrong)...

Hope u can understand the state:crazyeye: of my mind....


Why I prefer IIFM (not chose it...........because I need cat score .. don know if i will make it)

Greater Social Responsibility with Financially stable life........


Regards
Hari

hey 1st things 1st.. no1s ordinary!!! as far as Mocks go.. yeah they do matter but not entirely... i know people screwing up in mocks and doing great on Judgement Day!! and vice versa!! so do look at mocks but not much!! at least dont lower ur morale for the same!!! confidence beyond everything is required for the D Day in November.. maybe staying cool is another important aspect. yeah true IIFM is not known to everyone but we are working on it.. thats why im posting like a mad guy here. he he!! well see i what about post forest management is what you have got to decide. with the three different specialisations coming in from the 2007-2009 batch things have become a little clearer. trust me you have varied jobs which can enthrall you or send u bonkers!!! its fun nevertheless. read up on these courses in the official website. and then let me know which one do you like.. will help me let you know what all can be done here regarding that!! im in 1st year and still thinking on my preferences!!! so dont be restricted but obviously have your likes n dislikes sorted out. once u join things will get clearer..!! to your questions on the credibility bit of IIFM.. its a big yesss... c'mon do you have any institute of this kind in the country or even in Asia. we r definitely the best in what we cater to. and we are 60 odd folks in a batch so samples and percentages will always look small.. think about it. i have been through these initial inhibitions!! and trust me understand what u r going through. so just 1 plain advise!!! try to think out ur interests!! are they aligned to the mandate of this college!! if yes then u wont feel like kicking yourself when you are here!! yes some of it is strange and alien!! but thats the fun bit of it!! learning stuff which u wouldnt imagine your many generations to get into.

first give the cat the form can be filled even after the CAT so dont worry. And i dont think so that TAPMI and IIFM have same cutoffs. I have talked to some IIFM guys personally. And its clear that no body got call with 50%ile any section. And more or less the sectional scores are same for all the three section. I met there some of the guys with %ile around 80 overall..
So it would be better that you first appear for cat then you can project your percentile according to ur performance then if feel like filing the form then go ahead. And I think you have some wrong information TAPMI gives a call around 90%ile (If i am not wrong).
Please make sure that you have the right information.

Cheers

dear Aditi,please do not get confused!! 55% is not a cut off in the real section!!! it is the least minimum % u have got to get in each sense!! it is not that anyone and everyone whose got 55% + in each section will get a call for gd/pi. overall % also does matter! so aim for a 90% in CAT overall ensuring a 55% in each section at least!!! hope this clears it!!! as for seats its 75 for your batch entrants!!! this includes the OBC quota!! will clarify this again n let u know asap!! and division of courses happens in 2nd year on a certain set of rules!! the seat numbers r dynamic so dont worry about that now!!! if u perform well in class and ur interested ur sure to get ur choice of specialisation. happy diwali and study well for CAT!!! forms can reach till 5th! and please let us your background in brief too!!
