Welingkar Admissions

[deepbluesea]

hello all

i have been reading the messages about welingkars admission process and the absurdity of inviting everyone for the first round. many ppl are dissapointed with the final selection and some guys wit h awesome CAT/ATMA perctiles+good workex have been denied admissions.

when the PGBDA results were out i was surprised as well since i have 96.89 percentile in CAT
+ 2 &1/2 yrs of good work exp + the GD/PI/ silly psycho test were a cakewalk

but ......i have been selected for the PGPeBiz course they offer. although i am apprehensive bout taking up the course because ---

as i have had negative reponses from certain ppl reg taking up the course.
also i would like to add here that the PGPeBiz course isnt recogised by the AICTE...and hence teh industry doesnt recognise the ebiz course persay.
also i dunno whether this course is technically an MBA course...its too technical.

i am still not convinced to take this course up...
anyone in here would like to share their views bout this course...and give a friendly advise..??

cheers

Hi buddy,
Good that u are not taking up the PGPEbiz course.I dunno if u have seen my posts in Welingkars Round 2 forum of this site, but let me tell you that I have a background in Bsc Comp Sc with a 2 year work ex with Wipro Spectramind as a Technical Support Associate.I didnt apply for the PGPEbiz course cos i think i would be learnin the same things what i have already learnt in my college as well as due to this my profile will be restricted to e-business.I believe that obtaining a hardore Marketing or Finance profile would do be better and widen my horizons.But unfortunately due to their shady admission processes, I havent been able to get through the PGDBA this year.

If the course is not recognised by aicte , then one shuld be careful coz its amazing to see how companies actually try and get recognised courses students during the recruitment . Do u know that RBI goes to JB for placements and don't go to IIM'S coz they award a diploma . silly but true .
