Since the notification for CAT 2008 is out for a while now, MDI should be out with their admission forms soon too. Please feel free to clarify queries about the programs at MDI Gurgaon (PGPM, PGPIM, PGPHRM ) on this thread. We'll reply to your queries as soon as we can.
Well to be honest this International Management course is really a bit exciting to think of....would you suggest if i could fill only one form for MDI...should i go with PGPM or PGPIM??? i mean what criterias should one consider while making a choice among the two?? And the interns that you me...
Ok so this query has surfaced in due course of time ...
for the record I wud mention the entire scenario...
there are two parts of ur expenditures.. 1. the fees u pay at MDI.. which includes ur tution fees for MDI and ESCP, hostel fees at MDI and mess fees at MDI... it includes various other fees incurred during ur stay at MDI, books etc. 2. the part of expenses that is not covered under the fees is ur 4 months of course at ESCP and the interns in europe thereafter... only the tution part at ESCP u dont have to worry about, rest ur flight tickets, hostel/flat arrangement in europe, food, books and all other expenses are urs to handle... (unless MDI makes a change in policy this time... )
as it turns out... one month of stay in paris costs about 700-800 euros and in london it costs about 600-800 pounds.. (actually I shudnt be mentioning upper limits as it's entirely upto how deep ur pockets are.. ) anyways wot i mentioned is a tentative figure as to what it costs to have a decent standard of living in europe...
during interns u can earn anywhere between 1500 -2500 euros or 1400 -2200 pounds (might vary a bit ) so u can save some money during this intern period and can buy lavish gifts for home... ;)
the period of intern can be upto 9 months or even one year so some sort of financial burden can be reduced by saving money during interns//...
Well to be honest this International Management course is really a bit exciting to think of....would you suggest if i could fill only one form for MDI...should i go with PGPM or PGPIM??? i mean what criterias should one consider while making a choice among the two??
And the interns that you mentioned...well interns can be over 9 mnths i understand..but the amount that you earn,1500 that you mentioned is a monthly amount or overall amount??? and any other costs that are hidden..or would incur while we are in this course abroad..??

Hey buddy!
MDI is basically famous for Marketing. Recently, it has gained fame for its Finance program too. But, many people are not aware that MDI has its Systems specialisation too which is primarily meant for IT Consultancy. We have a academic group dedicated to the IT Consultancy whose primary aim is to have a decent exposure of the course to the outside world.
If you are looking specifically for that profile, do let me know i will have u communicate directly with the person involved.!!
See it's entirely upto you as which course do you find appropriate for yourself, all we can do is give u any information that u need to make this decision, also we would not be indulging in any lame comparisons between courses because there really is no comparison.

Hi jedi ;) Would love to have you as a junior too! The approximate percentile you'd need for a sure shot convert is around 99,I am afraid - assuming the process here does not chance. And well, placements are something I cannot comment about, but the figures I can quote - I believe they were ...
Hope MDI is a rocking place and would love to be your junior man. Now my doubt is what can be the approximate Percentile i should have to make it to MDI? Also what is the average packages offered by the companies?? Just wanted your advice my friend :)
Hi jedi ;)
Would love to have you as a junior too! The approximate percentile you'd need for a sure shot convert is around 99,I am afraid - assuming the process here does not chance. And well, placements are something I cannot comment about, but the figures I can quote - I believe they were around an average of 12.50LPA for PGPM. Cutoffs for HR are slightly lower, but the program is getting to be very popular. IM is also around 96-97.
Besides, if you want to get into marketing or finance, MDI has a great reputation. And the campus life is so alive, you'll hardly ever get to go to sleep ;)
cheers, HTH.
And hey, I hope I get to meet you if I do summer in Mumbai @ jedi
I don't think people from HR have the same elective options as PGPM - they have electives, but all of them have to do with OB ( Organizational Behaviour ) or HR - but most of the first year courses are the same. They hate accounts and stats just as much as we do :D Also, if you want to do HR, ...
Hi Im specifically interested in the PGP-HRM programme. Can any of you throw some light on that? I already read last years cut-off %ile. I needed information specifically on the course content and the avg packages.
Do the PGPM have the normal finance, HR, marketing electives? What are, if any, the electives in PGP-HRM
Thanks a lot :)
I don't think people from HR have the same elective options as PGPM - they have electives, but all of them have to do with OB ( Organizational Behaviour ) or HR - but most of the first year courses are the same. They hate accounts and stats just as much as we do :D
Also, if you want to do HR, go for the HR course - the PGPM course does not have an HR specialization, it only has some of the OB subjects. I heard talk of the introduction of a communications specialization ( for advertising et al ) but we'll only know when the courses are floated in our next term or year.
Cheers, HTH. I will try to get someone from HR to reply here too

Do you have any idea if MDI accepts the GMAT score. I am not currently in my home country so unable to appear for CAT.
I know that some other MBA colleges do accept the GMAT scores if you have resided outside India for more than 1 year; in that case you qualify in category of NRI, although you have to shell out lots of cash in that case. :huh:
Any kind of info will be really helpful
Thanks in advance
here goes what I could find on the college website...
Foreign/ NRI Applicants
Foreign/NRI applicants can be considered for admission on the basis of their valid GMAT scores (taken not later than October, 2008 ). The MDI application form can be purchased by furnishing a Demand Draft for US $100 or Rs. 4,500/- in cash. Candidates wanting the application through mail will have to send a demand draft of US $ 100 or Rs. 4,550/-. The filled in application form along with valid GMAT score card (attested copy) should reach MDI on or before 14th November 2008, at the address mentioned above.
If the applicants are short listed on the basis of their GMAT score, they may have to take another written test and attend an interview at their own cost at Gurgaon (India).
NRI Applicants who are residing in India during the period of admission process i.e. July-December, 2008 will have to appear for the CAT and will not be considered for admission on the basis of their valid GMAT scores.
if you have further queries u may either write directly to the admission office (admissions@mdi.ac.in) or let it be open in this forum... one of us will certainly find out from the admissions office and let you know...

With regard to the queries about the IM program - as we mentioned earlier, it is quite a preferred program here at MDI, although the costs of living abroad during the time of the internship can escalate. One needs to be careful, that is all.
Also, the site mentions that sale of application forms starts on the 18th of August. So don't jump the gun just yet. The site will be updated in a day or so, and the site already shows the list of branches for the 2009 form.
And yes, you will have to purchase separate forms for each program. Generally though, most people are looking for one particular course among the three - PGPM, PGPHRM or PGPIM.

Hi seniors,my query is has MDI released the admission prospectus.The reason being, I have subscribed to PG MBA alerts and i received a message today saying "MDI Gurgaon form out,Accepts CAT score,available at Bank of Baroda outlet.Last date to buy the form Nov 12.See https://www.mdi.ac.in for more" Now the website does says 12 nov but it's 12 Nov 2007,so has there been a mistake on part of PG in reading the year and messaging the last year date or is it actually 12th Nov 2008??

Man! u hv done a great job. You should b happy bcoz u hv got something different to say in the interviews. Coz! the interviewers too r bored with the same monotonous engineering answers.(No offences meant to engineers, i m an engineer too).
So, just prepare what all u hv learned in ur 2-3 months & now also don't sit idle. Join any company. Its the quality of work that matters not the quantity. So, do some quality work that adds value to ur profile.!
Hope it helps.
@abhay
i hope ur query has been answered. it was 80 a piece for the three sections. A request, kindly go thru the earlier pages else we keep on adding pages which hampers the whole prospect. No offences meant buddy.
All the Best.

Thanx buddy, for helping others out. You are doing a gr8 job. It really eases our task.

@Jaydev As stated earlier the CAT score does carry a good amount of weightage. This year the last person to get a PGPM convert is 98.4 odd. So, i guess this gives you a good indication on the percentile factor. For placements you can view the brochure on the website & avg. pack for 2006-08 ...

Great to see you around Abhi. Hope MDI is a rocking place and would love to be your junior man. Now my doubt is what can be the approximate Percentile i should have to make it to MDI? Also what is the average packages offered by the companies?? Just wanted your advice my friend
Since the notification for CAT 2008 is out for a while now, MDI should be out with their admission forms soon too. Please feel free to clarify queries about the programs at MDI Gurgaon (PGPM, PGPIM, PGPHRM ) on this thread. We'll reply to your queries as soon as we can.
Best of luck to everyone with CAT!
Cheers, Abhishek

Could you throw some light on the PGP-IM programme? It would be helpful if you could give some idea abt the present batchsize, min. CAT %ile required,etc.
thanks abhishek and varun... wud like to take on the PGP-IM queries from here on being a part of this course and an extensive researcher on the same when I was in the place you guys are now...
the batch size of the course like all other MDI batches is around 60 out of which around 35 guys are selected through CAT and around 25 come mostly from europe as exchange students and are students of MDI under the PGPIM programme so they are as much the part of batch.
As for the cutoff as rightly mentioned by varun has been continuosly on the rise especially as the visibility of the course has grown over these three years, as for this year we have the highest percentile as around 99.6 and lowest around 97.3 and the class percentile averages around 98.5... I have no doubt that coming year PGPIM will have definitely higher cutoffs primarily because of the USP of the course and very limited number of seats on offer. So if ur looking upto this course as an option make sure u blast the 99 threshold... :2gunfire:
Hello, I have one small query...I have an inclination towards the HR courses.....can u please tell me what were the cut offs for HR courses at MDI in 2007????

To add to this, there are instances this year of people dropping the PGPM programme for PGP-IM. My roommate here is a PGP-IM student, so their schedule is something I am familiar with. Their study schedule is a little more hectic than ours, and with the exchange students already on campus from ES...
PGP-IM is a new initiative with its 3rd batch running right now(2008-20100. The course was primarily outlined by the former director Dr. Pritam Singh, a known visionary. The course focuses on Regular managment alongwith a global exposure so that the candidate has a hands on experience in the global foray.
You are here in India till Feb & after that you move to wither ESCP-EAP's Paris or London campus. There you can go for an extended internship lasting till 6 months.
As for the batch size its usually 35+/- (2). The CAT percentile required has been always increasing. Last to last year it was close to 90. Last year it was 94. This year it is 97(have to confirm but i guess it's the lowest).
So, gear up all & bell the CAT.!
ATB. Cheers!!
P.S. For more info you can check my blog. It has an article on PGP-IM copied from a senior. So, all credits to him!!

Their study schedule is a little more hectic than ours, and with the exchange students already on campus from ESCP-EAP,there is a lot of interaction between the two groups.
As Varun mentioned, the weightage given to CAT is considerable here. The administration feels the CAT is a very well structured test, and hence a good score there is a big plus for the process at MDI :) Considering the work ex question - Across India, there is a marked shift across top b-schoo...
@seniors does MDI look at sectional cut offs individually?like minimum in each section say 85 %tile or 90 %tile or so? also for work ex junta say around 3 yrs at what %tile did they give calls? how much weightage is given to CAT score?pls elaborate :) Thanks!

Considering the work ex question - Across India, there is a marked shift across top b-schools for taking in students with work-ex. - a trend that indicates that they are moving towards a more global outlook. Hence, our belief is work ex only continues to grow more significant. But we also have a healthy percentage of freshers here, so no real cause for worry.

PGP-IM is a new initiative with its 3rd batch running right now(2008-20100. The course was primarily outlined by the former director Dr. Pritam Singh, a known visionary. The course focuses on Regular managment alongwith a global exposure so that the candidate has a hands on experience in the global foray.
You are here in India till Feb & after that you move to wither ESCP-EAP's Paris or London campus. There you can go for an extended internship lasting till 6 months.
As for the batch size its usually 35+/- (2). The CAT percentile required has been always increasing. Last to last year it was close to 90. Last year it was 94. This year it is 97(have to confirm but i guess it's the lowest).
So, gear up all & bell the CAT.!
ATB. Cheers!!

Hey buddy! Yes MDI does consider the sectional cut-offs. Last year they were 80 a piece for the 3 sections. candidates with 97.5+ %ile were called for interviews for PGPM. No relaxation is given to work-ex junta in terms of cut-off. It remains the same for everyone. But yes, your work-ex c...

No relaxation is given to work-ex junta in terms of cut-off. It remains the same for everyone. But yes, your work-ex counts a lot during your interivews. Can't comment on how much is the weightage of work-ex but yes it is considerable.
As according to the dean's interview here on PG about 3/4 th of the weightage is given to CAT scores.
@seniors does MDI look at sectional cut offs individually?like minimum in each section say 85 %tile or 90 %tile or so? also for work ex junta say around 3 yrs at what %tile did they give calls? how much weightage is given to CAT score?pls elaborate :) Thanks!

Sorry for the delay in replying, we only got finished with midterms today :) Well,I agree, this would be better after the forms were actually out - But what we were looking at was helping students clear doubts they may have before considering applying to MDI. Also, we thought we could disp...

Well,I agree, this would be better after the forms were actually out - But what we were looking at was helping students clear doubts they may have before considering applying to MDI.
Also, we thought we could dispense with generic queries right now and leave the more specific queries for later.
Abhi, wont it make sense, if we lock this thread now and open it as soon as the notification is out.. Reason : there might be some changes which might get diluted...
