Hi Everyone,
First of all congrats to people who have got the final calls..
I think i am the first Waitlist List candidate posting here...
I had a good pi and i was expecting the final call... but reached only to the waitlist...

I called iisc ,they didn't tell me the waiting no... they kept it secret..
They just told me that about the final status of ur admission , call on 11th...
I think selected people have to submit there fee by 11th...

I request that people who have already converted some other institutes or get converted b4 11th , plz decide about iisc and if u r really joining then only submit the fee.... becoz it will give chance then to Waitlist people.

Another thing is once the people have submitted there fee... and if u didn't join then , at that time iisc doesn't consider the waitlist candidates... which ultimately reduces the batch size which is already so small....

So Plz friends it is a humble request to reconsider ur decision wisely and then only book the seat..

Hi Rohit,
Interesting predicament this. I'm hopeful of a VGSOM call and in that case, wont be taking IISc up. Don't feel like wasting a seat, but VGSOM results would come only by 7-8 April and considering I stay in Mumbai, it will be kinda late then to send the DD.

So what I can do is - send the money now and mark my seat. If VGSOM results come before 11th, then immediately mail/inform IISc that I won't be taking it up. So possibly they can re allocate the seat.

All this provided they have a concept of a waiting list. Seniors, can you pls confirm this ?
I remember the dean mentioning in the presentation that there are no 'waiting lists' for IISc.

Hi ohayo,
can you give some direction to the placement process.
I went through last years thread and was confused to see that companies have to be intimated individually as per one's interest and they call you for summers interview. It seems scary as who will be interested in recruiting for summers. Can you give some statistics for this year summer placement and also the procedure for final placements as well.
thanks.
