hi,

Does XLRI accept a GMAT score of apr 2006 for 2009-2010 program?

You have to check the advertisement for next batch in Oct-Nov2008. As for as I remember they accept 2 years old GMAT score.
cheerssssssss...........

Hello Daya Nand Katyayan,

Can you please clarify if GMP is appropriate for me?

I am a 40+ IT professional working for a Tier 1 Indian IT company as a Group Manager, with some strong academics (M.Tech, M.S) but not so great GMAT score of 710. The very reason why I am evaluating Executive MBA at this stage of my career is the build necessary competencies so as to head an unit or IT organization within next 10 years and am thoroughly convinced that full time 1 year executive MBA is the way to go.

However, considering that there is significant investment outlay to acheive my objective, I am not sure if the risk I am taking is worth it. Clearly, my cost-benefit analysis assumes that I will land up in a reasonably good assignment post-MBA. Does this assumption hold true, given my profile and given GMP's placement trackrecord? I will appreciate if you provide your candid response.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Friends

Myself amit.
I have also applied for GMP course for 2009-10 session.
I am giving XAT for it.
Done B.E. (Production) in 2001 and have about 7 years of experience out of which 3.5 years in Automobile components industry in Sales and 3.5 years in Sales & Marketing in Capital and Construction Industry.
Just planned to give a try to these courses, so couldnt be able to give either GMAT or CAT and so either IIMA PGP PMP or XLRI GMP are the last hopes.
Well now have planned to give GMAT in feb-march if couldnt get thru both of these institutes.
I require some help from you people:

Can anytell me what is the cutoff for GMP course in XAT last year in percentile for overall test and for individual sections based on which people were called for PI.

Cheers
Amit
