@seniors

Last year wen u had been asked to submit relative documents to get fee waiver.....

After receiving the acceptance form and DD, PGP Office (IIM Indore) will send u the details (including fee waiver application form).
Most probably u will get all these in the first week of June and may ask to submit (filled application form with documents) at the time of joining.

@seniors

Last year wen u had been asked to submit relative documents to get fee waiver.....

I had called in the morning and got connected first time itself. The person who answered was very helpful as pramod mentioned.

Even I tried calling them 3-4 times since morning, they transfer the call to some department and there nobody picks up the phone.

I also want to know, where admission letter no is mentioned. Are we going to get a separate admission notification by post or there will only be a email notification.

Hello Puys,

I have tried contacting the Admission office regarding the "Admission Offer Letter No" , but no one is responding. Can anyone please post the Admission Office contact numbers(other than 07312439685). Also , what is the suitable time to call them. I have been trying since 2 pm today.

Thanks,
Ashutosh

Even i have been trying to call them since morning ... called up around 6 times, and the same, no one responding ...

@Seniors

Few queries..........
Suppose if the session starts on 1st July, and for those who are not listed
for preparatory classes,
Are they supposed to join few days in advance or they can join on 1st July
as well.

Also if we reach before 1st July, So what about the accommodation.
Just don't know and need to plan.

Will be obliged if any of the senior can reply.

Echo 2! Me too WAITlistED

(echo) ^ x
x=unknown number

I too have checked posts in this forum.I have found that total 109 have recieved confirmed call out of that 54 not joining,around 5 have confusion over I,K,FMS,NITIE,Current Job etc rest are ready to join planet I.

Out of these 55 ready to join around 25 are from category.

Waitlisted are 45.

I believe this is encouraging data for waitlisted people(Offcourse including me).Also there will be movement in waiting list of other(A,B,C) colleges also.Finger crossed.But my antaraatma says waiting list will be cleared.

These people are not nonsense to give waitlists.

But one negative point is IIM Indore has really selected people from diverse background.May be they are fed up with brainy IT people like me.

God give me a chance to enter planet I.

isme hamara kya kassoor ke hum IT me ghus gaye.Paisa jahan hoga wahin to jayega ek aam aadmi.Yeh 100 crore ki abaadi wala bharat hai.parai kar ke scuba diver bannoo kya? yeh india ka bschool hai jo fund se chalta hai.koi Financial times me listed internationally ranked nahi.diversity ... diversity...diversity!!!

Seniors, this information would be really very helpful for all of us to get an idea of what all to expect, if not this years, even information about the subjects that you yourself studied would also be very helpful.

Hi,
I hope last year's information gives you some idea.

Registration - June 29th 2009
Mid-terms - 2nd week of August 2009
Term end - 12th September 2009. (exams normally take 3-4 days, excluding Sundays in between, if any. )
1st Term Nr. of credits - 28

2nd Term registration - 22nd September 2009
Mid-terms - 6th Nov to 10th Nov 2009
Term end - Dec 24th 2009
Term 2 Nr. of Credits - 36

3rd Term registration - 4th Jan 2010
mid terms - 17-19 Feb 2010
Term 3 ends - 30th March 2010
Term 3 Nr. of Credits - 18

Composition of courses in each semester, as well as total credits per semester are subject to change.
Everybody has to study the same subjects in the first year, no electives for year 1.
I have refrained from divulging information about dates of the festivals and other important events etc that form an integral part of our calendar because:-

1. These dates are quite flexible, there's no guarantee that they will occur on the same dates this time.
2. You will be formally introduced to these events once you are on campus.

Seniors, this information would be really very helpful for all of us to get an idea of what all to expect, if not this years, even information about the subjects that you yourself studied would also be very helpful.

Not terribly important anyway; assume it to be 11 May.

All the seniors are busy with their summers, so they might take a little bit of time to respond to our queries/requests. You just have to be patient :)

And by that time, I should try to respond to all if I have any relevant info with me, as I am just enjoying my notice period and doing nothing else in office :clap:

I guess we have no other option but to wait... !!!!
Thanku seniors...

As of now, here is a brief summary of what is going on at Facebook page:

1. Introduction of people joining the 2010-12 batch.
2. Some people asked about accommodation for guys with family. The response was that there are rooms for married students to accommodate their families.
3. Details of the informal meet posted.

Do you have academic calendar for year 2010-11 ? Please share with us if any

Seniors, this information would be really very helpful for all of us to get an idea of what all to expect, if not this years, even information about the subjects that you yourself studied would also be very helpful.

Puys..

Request all final call getters and waitlisted candidates to put their votes at http://www.pagalguy.com/forum/cat-and-related-discussion/53751-2010-2012-iim-indore-final.html

well, did some anyalysis and came up with following conclusion

IIM Indore from the very start of this year's selection process has done things differently and gave PI calls to a candidates belonging to CAT score range 90.xx to 99.xx

So what I believe is they are clearly looking for diversity in the batch. Since the batch is huge it makes sense to have diversity in the profiles of candidates.
What I believe is they have categorized candidates into different pools based on different criterias. Such as say candidates belonging to IT industry with 3+ work ex in one group and so on.

In the final selection list also they have tried to maintain the batch diversity. They want a particular number of candidates to be there from a particular group.

This explains two of our queries:

Firstly : Why no waitlist number this year ??
Reason : Since there is as such no combined waitlist but group wise waitlist, so they do not want to reveal that and create more questions for them to answer.

Second : Why huge range of reference number to selected guys.
Reason : Since candidates are dispersed among the different groups and they want a particular percentage of candidates from each group, so that's why huge range. There may be gap in the reference number alloted to confirmed guys as of now.

Puys, please comment on this.

Yes,I believe this analysis could be true.I have visited to few selected candidates profile their profile is really diverse.So I believe you could be quite correct.

Another point is while other IIMs have declared their final selection criteria IIM Indore has not.It could be because if they declare their criteria their could be huge uproar.

What you say puys?

Anyway keeping fingers crossed

Coverted and Joining.......:cheers:

Hello All,

The Mentorship programme was for the call-getters to aid them in the GD-PI stage. For the final selected candidates, there is no mentorship programme. All your queries can be answered either here or on the Facebook group - Welcome to Facebook | Facebook

A Facebook group makes sense as almost all our batchmates are far more active on Facebook than on Orkut. However, we'll make a dedicated forum on Orkut as well, though it would still be preferable if we have just the one group on FB as that will be easy to read through discussions and doubts both for us as well as for you guys (tough to track multiple discussions on two separate websites).

I am unable to join the FB group. I have already sent my details to you. Please have a look and add me into the group.
Thanks much

Hey.. Congrats to everyone who got through IIM L.

Can everyone please fill up the Waitlist Tracker for MDI, IMT G and IMI given inthe link below. It would be really helpful for waitlisted people like me.

Thanks

Dude, there's a problem with your tracker. I had IIM I and MDI calls and I converted both but still it asks me to fill in the waitlist compulsorily. Change this and pm me. Cheers!!!

Why only 47-48 applied? Why not all? I don't know anything regarding this Student Exchange Program. Whats the reason of all not applying?

If you go for exchange, you cannot be a part of the committees on campus and cannot hold head positions in the events like Ahvan, Mridang etc. Thats the current policy. It is justified given that one has to be on campus when these events take place or when the bulk of the work for these events takes place.

Also, going for an exchange term may not add so much value to your resume but involved in activities at IIM Indore may add more value.

Some others may have financial considerations while a lot of others who have had stints abroad(work related) do not find it very attractive.

Hence, the number usually comes down to 50.

I have been working for last three and a half years.
My family income (without mine) is less than 3 lac per annum.
Does IIM Indore consider my present income in family income?

Well Rahul, I'm not too sure on this, so I would request other ppl of my batch to throw light on the same if they know. But, in my opinion, if you haven't mentioned your income in the GD/PI form then it shouldn't really matter here as well. What I mean is - once you are on campus you won't be earning anymore, so ideally it shouldn't be included in consideration for the waiver. But whether or not this is true I really don't know.

ankit9doshi Says

About 35 odd people are going this year and about 47-48 people applied

1. Prep Classes - Well people, these classes are conducted for only a few students for a few subjects only. Now who these students are, is decided by the panel who has interviewed you. If they felt that you need some more knowledge in a particular subject they give your name to the Admissions office for these classes. The whole purpose is to try and bring the entire batch at the same level before the course begins. Again repeating what has already been mentioned in the thread before - you need not register for it. You shall be communicated with by the PGP office if you are required to attend the same. Also, if you don't receive any communication on this then it means that you aren't supposed to attend it. Atleast this is what had happened for our batch. Hope this clarifies your doubts on the Prep classes now.

2. Informal Meet - The entire purpose is just to give you an opportunity to interact with our batch and help clear all your doubts and queries. This is in the true sense just an INFORMAL meet, so you need not get anything to the meet or be worried or tensed about it. Just be present there (as MSJ said-the presence is more important) and needless to say but get all your doubts cleared.

3. Last but not the least - The Placements: All your doubts may get clarified by referring to the placement report. The link for the same is - Indian Institute of Management Indore - ins news

akash.chaudary Says

so does that mean that same company might offer differnt pkgs to diffrnt students depending on the work ex...

Yes, depending on the duration of your work ex.

hi ankit..not able to join the group..have already PM'ed u the details..

Adding to what Karan is saying, I hope people realise that across IIMs and other premier institutes the entire batch is not placed with 10 lacs+ even when batch sizes are 120, or 240 or 360 or 450 now. Any one who claims that everyone gets even 8 lakhs even in IIM A is either misguiding you or is a fool.

IIM I administration was fully aware before increasing the batch size and there are plans in place. Whether the plans will be successful, only time will tell. (Now don't ask what those plans are, we ourselves know little)

However, from what I have seen, people who are good will get placed well irrespective of the batch size. In my opinion the real difference could be only if you are in ABC. At times I have seen at ABC even not so good guys end up with good jobs.

I know it is difficult but I would want to look at the 2 years as something a little more beyond placements. There are a lot of advantages when you meet someone and say that I am from IIM Indore.

Ankit ur blog seems to be convincing but not this post..
wat are u trying to outsource your placements now.. bcos ISB does that as they cant handle it...

seniors and puys,

any one know about the criteria for the preparatory course?? and tentative date of when does it begin?

have to plan my resignation accordingly.

Please do post your profiles here. But also do not forget to post your profiles on facebook too! Login | Facebook

I guess lot of people have not posted their final calls from Indore. Can we have a round of profile posting so that wait-listers also get the idea about the profiles of people joining Indore.
