Re: OBC IIMB waitlist tracking -

Hi.
the controversy? regarding OBC seats could be very simple. probably IIMB has implemented 60 seats as they had promised.
Basically what must have happened is this.
of the 831 people called from general category,
228-222 get confirmed calls in the general category ( this might include other OBC guys who have cleared it in the general merit)
19 - 25 get confirmed calls in the OBC category since they don't clear it in the general category ( lets call it GEN-OBC category for now)
and from the 240 people called for GD/PI
41 (40+vamc nrsh) clear it with converted calls.
This makes the seat distribution as follows
Seats: 202 (GEN) + 60 (OBC 17%) + 52 (SC 15%) + 26 (ST 7.5%) + 10 (PWD 3%) = 350 Total
regarding buffers, notice that sc, st and pwd categories have no buffers this year and number of seats = number of confirmed offers. regarding general and obc buffers it depends on the actual numbe of people in the GEN-OBC category mentioned above. If it is 19 resulting in
OBC Buffer = 0
General Buffer = 26
If on the other hand, there is indeed a buffer of 10 % in the OBC category ( via 25 people in the Gen-OBC category mentioned above. Then we have
OBC Buffer = 6 ( 10 % of OBC Seats)
Gen Buffer = 20 ( 10 % of General Seats)
This seems to be a realistic picture than the assumption of 225 or so seats in the general category. Of course all the information is just logical deduction or just a good guess, standard disclaimers apply.
I wonder if there is any way to check this like reference numbers in the letters of the confirmed calls.
