Everyone can view the excel sheet, no one can edit it.

there is some spamming in the spreadsheet..
i thnk sm morons are playing bad sport... u can delete those entries.. if i can help in any way.... let me know

@Adcom:Accomodation is provided only till 16th.
What about 17th for those who have immersion on 18th?
Is the programme really extended to 18th or was it just a spare day?

Hello Puys
Can anybody tell me whether all who have cleared G1 are called for Immersion or there are some people who even after clearing G1 have not been called?
Thanks.

as has been mentioned in the threads, and in the mail sent out, only people who did well in GI2 have gotten the calls. which means, there are many people who cleared GI1 and have not gotten immersion call.

hi swetha good work... but make sure that the final spreadsheet which contains all the entries from the form, isnt public. If it goes public,someone can wipe it out like the last time. Plz make it private, so that no one can damage it..

The admission process of SP Jain is becoming like thrillers of James Hadley Chase.

Noone knows the truth.


Let's :drinking::drinking::drinking: and forget everything.

Does the another day support the theory of 600 ppl getting immersed???!!!!

Had not booked a slot as I was not sure of going. Today When I booked, 18th March was the only date available.Also got a confirmation mail for 18th after booking.

@Adcom: Is the event extended to 18th also? I was under the impression that you could accomodate any number per day in the programme. Hence dint book earlier.

Is this another surprise for us... 18th was never told and discussed... wats goin on people... Daily I m hearing something new... 600 immersion calls... 18th March... phew... anymore surprises... anyone???

prats26 Says

i have a strong feeling that SPJIMR wil come wid final results straight away & im pretty sure they wil do smthng pleasantly surprising for guys wid immersion calls... just my assumption

Just to add on to what my friend has just said...which made a lot of sense. what could be the surprises that SP could have for us prob are as follows:-

1. Some interactive sessions between the aspirants and organize a few management games and all...just to c how we perform in a group...

2. Few topics on presentations...micro presentations..case studies..blah blah

3. Promotion of a NEW CAMPUS for SP JAIN....calling industry stalwarts and promotion of the new campus..all major schools are opening new ones...!!!

Puys these are just assumptions that I am putting across.....I am looking it from the perspective of a Bschool calling aspirants for an event...spending money for reimbursement.....and the mail does not say that the event is optional.....try CONNECTING THE DOTS(courtesy Steve Jobs....)

i have a strong feeling that SPJIMR wil come wid final results straight away & im pretty sure they wil do smthng pleasantly surprising for guys wid immersion calls... just my assumption

to all friends,, just chill yaaron...bulaya hoga jitno ko bulaya hai...chal ke dekh lenge...n in the end list aa jyegi to wo bhi dekh lenge...really..i was also very much worried, constantly looking here there nd searching all..then i realised every one here is on the same boat...just relax yourself..simple fundae..yhan tak pahunche hain to kucch to baat thi ham sabhi mein...to aage bhi jayenge..spjain ya aur khin but jyenge jaroor...
i also contacted the adcom people nd they said cant disclose the no. and immersion is a new initiative to make future aspirants make feel about ur aspired institute nd mba studies..already followed in foreign colleges...so spjain has started this trend in india...nd attending is not required nd will not hv any effect on list at all...they are relesing the final list after immersion so that people dnt lose interset in this immersion programme....

so humble request chill.,, concentrate on other interviews nd assignments...nd kuch nh hai to aaj netherland se match hi dekho..sehwag n sachin se koi ek chal jaye..i am going for that..mine is on 15th..looking fprward for that.....

ajith.asok Says

but,they havent said so officialy...ryt????

its mentioned by adcom members in the GI experiences thread. thats as official as it can get.

Abhi_is_now Says

Yes it is the end for those who did not get selected in immersion.At least for this academic year of SPJAIN.

but,they havent said so officialy...ryt????

@ puys.....

does immersion mean a total list of all the candidates who will be selected + those who would be put in different waitlists or there is some chance for those not in immersion as well??

Simply put: is "not immersion" = end of the SPjain dream?

I feel that even if the Admission office has disclosed a figure of 500 or 600, it's not the true one, OR they have increased the number of seats. Else it doesn't make sense for SPJIMR to call so many people who have "done well" in GI-2 to enable them to make an informed decision about joining the college. (With all due respect to the Admissions committee!) So I guess it's best to wait n watch, instead of speculating.

I hope that if they are planning to take feedback from the Immersion call-getters during the event, some sort of review sheet is put up on the website, to help those who can't make it. Just a suggestion.

Understanding that this is being done for the first time, I also hope that the process becomes more transparent and well-planned for the next year, so that anxiety levels don't peak up as much.

All the best to call getters, and all the best to Adcom, for ensuring that the event is a success, and yields what is expected out of it.:cheerio:

Agreed.. Sheer common sense

Hey puys...I have been following the discussion and would like to comment on only one thing...

There is no point speculating or discussing the number of invitees for the Immersion event. When we got shortlisted on the basis of Profile List, Score based list..etc etc....Did any one of us discuss...how many?who all?seating capacity?

We just went there and gave our best....and left the rest upto the result. The mail says its an opportunity..lets think on how we can make full use of it..rather than sitting and speculating numbers....it would help!!!!:thumbsup:

lankesh Says

Dude.... Actually i ve been following PG for a long time. Just never really cared to participate till now.. There are some posts which catch your attention and this was one of them. The point I wanted to make was that there is no way to check the authenticity of the ppl who reply to that poll. And to kill all the speculation, let me tell everyone. a total of 600 ppl have been invited for immersion. I was asked not to put up the entire list here else I would have done that too.

Hi Mods....is anyone of you active right now?? We have a surprise visit by The Almighty Himself, disclosing confidential information to the general public.

A gentle request to Mods to take appropriate action! Just like people speculating the result declaration dates are banned, a similar action should be taken against people speculating such information without quoting reliable sources!

@ all my fellow immersion invitees, don't run into unnecessary arguments on this topic. Lets wait for the final results, and discuss them whenever they are declared!

Lanka k naresh ko rokne k liye aap Ram na bane! Just wait till the results are out!

Btw....the spreadsheets initiative is a good way of estimating...and that too....genuine figures!!

Dude.. who asked you not to disclose the list?? where did you get the list from ?? since you say that you have been following pg for long you must know that this entire thread has just been trying to come to a conclusion about the number of people invited.. spreadsheets and poll and everything.. So with all due respect to your status message kindly stop trying to draw unnecessary attention.. If you have anything credible post it and the source..

Hi All,

Since all of us have come so far among approx 15000 people, cleared GI-1 and we are amongst top performers of GI-2.... So be it 600 or more, it should not matter to us.Just believe in yourself, have faith in God and stay motivated.If you have the power to come so far, you can definitely go further.

Stay Calm and Stay Alive.

Best Wishes to all.

Khanquer Says

Good info. So it's jus an opportunity for a campus tour,after all!!..tense man...but did you ask anything abt the rough figure of invitees?

yes i did,..
back then they said approx top 500..
but considering that no lists are out.. so cant be very sure.

Lets jus hope for the best. We have done our bit.. ATB to u

I need help in filling up the excel sheet... Can any one do that for me... I am using my phone to access pg but spreadsheet is not compatible from my phone... Please someone do it for me....

i seriously don think they have disclosed the figures to anyone........so pls stop make irrelvnt statements unless u can prove it......
if they can disclose the numbers ,then they wud hav definitely come up with the immersion shortlist.........

Hey puys...


I had spoken to one of the Adcom members and ...

1. he confirmed, Immersion is optional
   
2. and it ll have no effect watsoever on ur rank in the admission process
   
3. aim of immersion:starting campus tours (as already happening in foreign universities)..building more familiarity ( a similar thing even ISB does in India n provides free accomodation for a 1 day/night...no travel expenses though )
   
4. plus, the results will be declared after the immersion..
   

hope it clears a few doubts..
Note: i m attending the process on 15th.. looking fwd to see the college/meet the faculty/ know more n explore Mumbai..:.

lankesh Says

It is first 600 candidates. My idea of disclosing the figure was not to start another rond of speculations.. :D

well, if you do sit and make posts without proof, speculation is what is going to happen. i reckon you should either take back your statement or post this "list" you are in possession of, if you do have it.

Surenders7 Says

: Is it an agreement or disagreement ? What do u mean by des statements ? :lookround:

Neither , it is an apprehension.

diya17 Says

I called Admission Off and they told that around 600 people have been called. If it is true it will be very weird. Why are they calling so many people just to reject them later...

:D All those who wanted proof of the number 600 can refer to your post.. It is good that the Adcom is answering these questions now. Atleast people who found 600 weird and illogical would find some rationale to it now. Cheers !!
