Hi,
This is for all those who have got through IIM C PGDM (not PGDCM )and not joining it.
This would give some clues for all of us who are speculating about the possibility of a waitlist from IIM C.
If not us, who? If not now, when?

Lets crack next yr re | No Sir, Not me. I would definitely join MDI this year. See friends, if I am good, then does it really matter whether I join 1st rank instt or 10th rank. To me both of them are good, if they are able to provide me with one of the best job in the industry. So, its quite possible that if I can give excellent performance in MDI, I may get a better job than most of the IIM A guys. So, let me use myself to the fullest now to reach the top. And that would be my advice to you as well dear. Lets rock MDI...

hey piyush !!!
Include PGDCM poll also as:
PPL who have only pgdcm call frm cal and joining
PPL who have only pgdcm call frm cal and not joining
PPL who have both calls and not joining pgdcm but joining pgdm
PPL who have only pgdm call and not joining
PPL who have only pgdm call and joining
so that we will get a realistic picture of both pgdm and pgdcm calls | | | | | | | |

so that we will get a realistic picture of both pgdm and pgdcm calls | On the contrary I feel that it would be useless, if we try to include both of them in the same poll. To get a clear picture of any of the course in Cal, there has to be seperate polls created. so why not creating another thread of PGDCM polls? A single poll won't be furnishing any data.
If not us, who? If not now, when?

good idea to join MDI.
The advantages of the IIM or IIT "brand" are limited to the foll:
1) Adds to your vanity
2) Helps u in the first 4 months in your company
after this (to quote cliche) its your performance and other subtle traits ,perspectives and abilities to identify opportunities that count .
MDI presently is under very dynamic leadership and it's only going to keep improoving as they build a stronger alumni base to support themselves.
Another reason is preparing for cat once again is almost a no brainer. the exam is good, however it does no substantial value addition once you have already cracked the written, and in the interview you always have a chance of getting rejected for the same reasons you were rejected in the first place.

By the way, where can I get in touch with you, i.e. which college are you joining?

There are loads of people who repeat CAT after interview rejects from the IIMs, even though they've got admits to other top institutes ...
I'm not going to be one of them though!!  Have had my fill of funda books and mock tests and November D-Days followed by Feb/March D-days!!
For the record, I got a solitary IIM call (IIMC) as well as calls from SPJain, MDI and NITIE ... got the boot from IIMC  but managed to get into the other three 
I'm packing my bags happily for SP Jain ...
Cheers!
