Hi guys...am from Mumbai and one thing I can definitely tell you is that it is marketing itself agressively.And boy,are they trying to create an aura around their name(although,nothing like our beloved aye aye pee em ).Howeverlots of students over here think pretty highly of it.Also while the placements are not particularly great(highest-3.5 pa,sheesh)they do have 100% placements,if that is what you are looking out for.

Industry interface is quite good and it does have the advantage of being located in Mumbai.I had my acheiver's workshop over there and the infrastructure is good,plama TVs and all.More importantly,some hot chicks out there .

However,guys this is an MBA you wanna do.Couldnt you try for something better next time around.Definitely not for workex guys.Freshers,maybe.

Cheers,
Kartik.

Your XAT score will not be accepted. Welingkar accepts only CAT scores. 85 in CAT is decent and should get you in. The admissions also has other factors in the overall score. Just make sure you dont lose out much there and u should be through.

As regards donations, I have not paid any donations, being a student myself. This is the case with most of the ppl doing the course at welingkar.

Ya with your CAT score you can surely make it to Wellingkar.
My friend there got 83.14 last year in CAT.
They call everyone for GD/PI and finally shortlist a few 400 for final interview.
Ya, if you are ready to pay donation you get on the spot seat during final interview. But at your score I don't think you need to pay donation.

Also Jay is right. The highest this year there is 5.5 lacs. But average is 4. This statistics were given by Wellingkar people who had come for a presntation at CF, Mumbai. Infrastructure-wise the institute is good. They have 100% PLACEMENT ASSICTANCE AND NOT 100% PLACEMENT is what we were told. Some people back out from placement process for joining family business and all. They don't count them in their process. Rest if you do well in those 2 years you sure will get a decent placement.

At that CAT percentile, he has a decent chance. If you read one of my other posts, the written test is worth 100 outta the 150 points applicable for the shortlist. The remaining 50 is for workex, the answers given in the form(it has subjective questions), academic performace and extra-curricular activities.

A further 150 points are given to the GD/PI/PT (50 each). Hence the final selection will be outta 300.

So if he gets shortlisted, he will have to do well in the GD/PI/PT.
