Re: XLRI GMP - Admissions and Beyond - 26-01-2009, 05:08 PM

hv interracted dirctly / indirectly with the pool. IIM B has lost some gound being the first year, while IIM C has a very scewed and not-so-mature mix ( as its driven by crude GMAT score) and not-so-good placements last year, with one of the guys not getting any offer.... XL on the other hand has more maturity in the course, more diverse batch and placement was impresseive in the last batch. I always recon XL above IIM L/K and I and I think most of the Pagals will agree.
Its all my analysis..could be grossly wrong.

I interviewed at IIM C PGPEX, but didn't get a final call. Really hope things work out for you man. Have been following your story while jouneying through mine.

Xlri is the last of the big ones I hope to get to. So slightly unnerved.
hey tokanava,

i know it would have been tough for you after facing rejection from IIMC...

where all did you apply..?

Yeah i gave my Interview at ISB...and am hopeful abt the result:-)

640-for XLRI is on the lower side, cos the form dint have enough to explain the positives...!!!

Good luck bro....though am not really hoping for the call...

I applied only to ISB and XLRi

Ask for Prof.Rajiv Sharma next time you call....he is the admissions chairperson. And try explaining your case to him.

Let me know the outcome of your next call.
Hi Siva,
Thanks for your help. I will try and connect to Prof Rajiv Sharma. Please let me know the contact numbers in order to get in touch with him. Do I need to connect using the same contact nos , in any case Please repost them for my reference. I have emailed the admissions committee and requested for a telephonic interview. I will keep you posted as soon I as hear back from them.

Regards
Sameer

No dates are communicated. An official mail will come.After reaching India I have another offer as a competency head and then back to US. But I am seriously thinking about MBA.

When will ISB result come out?I am sure you are coming to hyd.I have a feeling ;-)..

These days are going dull and this dull period will continue for another month
