Rightly said comparison of business schools is not allowed on PG.if you want to compare send the pm to the person who you think will be able to provide you the answer and m stating once again comparison is against pg rules

Comparison of B-schools are not allowed on PG
If you have any such queries send a PM to any one who can help you
P.S. Go with your interest ( if you are interested in HR and are a fresher then XISS HR is a very good option )
WE PGDM ( specially Mumbai ) attracts huge competition, so its hard to take it for granted that one will convert ( its good to be confident though )

HRM @ XISS, Ranchi or Welingkar?? Which one is better? Please guide.

hello sir,
I have got call for XISS, Rachi for HRM. I have also applied to We School PGDM. Can you please compare both? which institute should i go for?

my friend u are refering to List of Accredited Programmes as on 5th May, 2009

and the other report is of march 2011.

if you want to believe those, please go ahead.

the insitute is approved by AICTE, BD is a new course, so there is sometime before the course becomes eligible for accreditation.

the course is very good...still if u think these things matter to you more, please don't apply, may some deserving candidate who gives importance to faculty, course structure, pedagogy, innovation lab, design thinking approach, rural plus international exposure and awesome faculty, do this course.

First document is of March 2011 & it clearly mentions lack of accreditation.

We always refer the latest data. If you have revised doc, share it. Till then the same data is referenced. This is no-brainer.

sohang mathur Says

will there b creativity test and essay writing 4 pgdm as well?

All programs have a common selection process, it's not that if you have only applied for BD you have to go for the creativity test
In the final selection list, the courses are assigned according to preferences and total score of the selection process
Not sure about essays ? last year they didnt have any essays

will there b creativity test and essay writing 4 pgdm as well?

esshansra Says

Photocopy / Internet Copy of the CAT Score Card / CET Score Sheet / ATMA score / XAT score card / CMAT score (Written Test Score only). Students not submitting the same will not be eligible for selection.

heyy thankxx..but it is also mention there that " Please bring the Original Score Card of the entrance tests taken by you for verification purpose".But i dont have my cat original score card so plz tell me what i hv to do??

http://www.pagalguy.com/forum/cat-and-related-discussion/67760-we-school-2011-2013-final-11.html
chk out dis page...its very disheartning to see that students with even 99 prcntiles, gud acads, excellent gdpi's did'nt get through last year for pgdm mumbai...

Badmaninheaven is right...if someone's acads are not good then that doesnt mean he/she is not good...he may be more smarter excellent in other skills...still...he/she is a better bet for a school like WE...then also foe people like having everything awesome....there are other b schools too.....



Interpretation depends from person to person....

Really if we show up we go through the process and its over...just think of a situation where u have to interview 40 or 50 candidates...its a tiresome job to do...also they are much more experienced...excellent in what they do...thats y they are there to make a selection.....hope u understand.....

mr golu99,
thanks for your update.
please dont be disheartened.
check the welingkar entry process...
140 marks is the weightage given to written competitive exam...
now if u score pathetic in remaining 260 out of 400 (total marks) you wont get an admission...for sure...
so
please dont be disheartened...
ofcourse u sud be if you one of those geeky kinds, who score...99.99 but cant articulate there thoughts...
sorry welingkar doesnt want those people...


so PLEASE DONT MAKE SUCH COMMENTS WHEN U HAVE NO IDEA ABOUT HOW THE PROCESS GOES...

Its k @badmaninheaven...just make him aware...still he is still to know a lot..u r an experienced guy so just let it go...u know it why...

Thnks for helping fellow aspirants.....

Hello sir,

I have my Welingkar's GD PI on same day and time as MAH MBA/MMS 2012 GD PI. I have asked for a date change.

What else i have to do to make sure the date changes. Please somebody help me.

Thanks and regards,
Ashwin P.

i have the same problem..i have also applied for a change of date..i suppose that a valid reason wudbe sufficient for them to consider for the change of date..still continuously call the admissions office nd make sure that ur date is changed..atleast i wil do so to assure that my gd pi date is changed.

Its not that freshers have a disadvantage
last year I converted pgdm bangalore, and there were many freshers with less score than that of mine who got through pgdm mumbai :)

So it is all about how you perform in stage 2, the score hardly matters after you get a gd-pi call, because of the selection procedure

Let me paste an info by Rav Singh Sir which I saw on FB, this may clear a few doubts

Lets assume 2 cases:
Case 1: Student A with 99.2 percentile in CET applied for WE. Score - 115
Case 2: Student B with 85 percentile in CET applied for WE. Score - 75
The gap between the 2 students is 40 marks outta 200!
Welingkar PG admission process has 140 marks allocated for the written test scores. Hence, if gap is outta 40/200 it wil be 28/140...
Hence the gap between the topper and last ranker at the end of stage one is only 28 marks!!

This gap can very well be covered by PI or GD alone

P.S. All scores are treated equal in welingkar






There is no harm in taking one although I doubt that they will ask for it, because they will have the form you filled along with all those essays in front of them :)

Thanks for this helpful post.
Everything you mentioned is correct, except the fact that all scores are considered equal...

Welingkar doesn't consider all scores equal.
Welingkar converts all exam scores to EQUIVALENT CAT SCORE, based on the formula given by AICTE.
Till last year that formula was available on DTE website, this year it is not shared with students.

BUT THE COLLEGE FOLLOWS AICTE GUIDELINES.
You guys dont worry about all this, just give your GD PI properly.

Rest will be done as per standard AICTE process.

:)hi,
I have applied for pgdm core and bd, but i havent got a clear idea about the bd course..is it a mixture od marketing and operations.??
Also, what kind of profiles are offered for BD students and what are the packages offered.??

it is not a mixture of marketing and operations.

a brief note about business design course:
In this era of uncontrolled growth not only of population but also products, services, scientific and technical information, how does one make sense of human needs and aspirations? Emerging unarticulated needs and realities need new approaches. We feel Management education can play a very crucial role in creating a new genre of managers who are attuned to these realities. All forward thinking Business leaders agree that Innovation is the only way forward. Design that delivers sustainable solutions will play a significant role in Business transformation.

There is a growing need for cross-disciplinary learning. Design and Management come out as the best partners. Managers could learn a lot more from the open-minded, human centered approach of the designer. Designers can gain tremendously by learning how managers execute Business.

Pedagogy:

Attempt to teach subjects in an integrative manner.
Learning by doing prototyping/hands-on/experiential learning as designers tend to learn activity based, use of multiple media to present and to learn
Critical Thinking which questions every aspect
Holistic thinking Human Centered approach, looking at all aspects before arriving at solutions

Verticals:

The program offers an opportunity to focus on certain Industry verticals. Verticals which are highly sensitized to design and innovation at this point such as Retail, IT, Manufacturing, Media/Advertising, Design Houses, Banking & Finance


hope this helps.

That is true. And PGDM-ebiz & Business Design course are not even accredited by AICTE.

chk out dis page...its very disheartning to see that students with even 99 prcntiles, gud acads, excellent gdpi's did'nt get through last year for pgdm mumbai...

second thing...
if a candidate thinks his gd-pi was gud...then it cannot be confirmed whether it was really...
u never know how yur gdpi went...

and excellent acads have there share of weightage...
extracurriculars are subjective...

u might have 48 months of experience in yur dads company and
someone wud have 12 months in a multinational...

u tell which is excellent???

if u personally know all those who cudnt convert then you have every right to make such a comment...

but please understand...
a lot of effort goes in selection of students for welingkar...
ask people who are in these field...
u will get a fair deal of idea...

vijj Says

Do we need to take our proper resume with us for PI?

There is no harm in taking one although I doubt that they will ask for it, because they will have the form you filled along with all those essays in front of them

Filled in the spreadsheet @ calls in Delhi. Lets see how it goes. No time to prepare for GDPI, as final examinations are going on. Thankfully, the GDPI date doesn't clash with any exam, so no need to reschedule. :grin:


I am pretty confident when it comes to PI's and being the Quiz Soc President, I am sound with my GK. Have plenty of ECA's too, including Cultural Secretary of my college and Heading the college fests' Sponsorship and Marketing Dept.

My only concern is Acads. 10th - 84 and 12th - 78. Wonder if that would cost me crucial points in the final thing. Have applied for PGDM, Mumbai only with XAT 91.

Hoping I can convert, but seeing last year's thread, where people with even higher %ile and Work Ex, having good GDPI's were not able to convert.

Is there any preference of scoring for Written Examination? As in, CAT, CET is given a higher preference over XAT? I hope not

i dont think it works that way..had called up WE's office a few days back and they told me all the entrance exams are given equal weightage..when i went through last year's thread i noticed that many people with not so good percentiles but tonnes of work ex made it..so maybe thats the key ..but then again, there surely must be atleast some freshers in the insti and they must have got selected by the same procedure..so give it your best and hopefully it'll be enough to sail u through..

puneet1106 Says

helloo sir..actually my gdpi is scheduled on 12th may..i have asked to take cat original score card along with me at the venue..but i dont have that bcoz i dont recieve original cat score card..can u plz tell me what i hv to do now???plzz help me!!!!
