That means no chance of seat increase this year . Current year students wud perhaps recognise me..... I was WL@ 24 last year and WL was clear till 20 or 22.

We surely do remember you! The # of seats are probably something that the institute won't negotiate on. Are you planning to reapply this year? Good Luck!

Hi,
It will be a great help, can you confirm nos. of seats or any chance of increase in no. of seats..

@ponds_ggn,

EPGP Students are viewed very differently from PGP students. The placement cycles are different. More importantly the preferences are different.

Placements are individual based and cannot be compared with PGP. 'How will' is a difficult question to answer. If you are asking about the current batch, the season has not started. If you are asking about yourself, its largely to do with your background, your clarity and choice of a career, your learning at IIMB and a bit of the external environment.

Hope this helps.

Hi,
Thanx for the reply .
I just need to know one more information. How will be the companies view on EPGP students comapred to PGP students. And how the placements will be.

Hi Sandeep,

Your academic credentials of BE, MS are good. Automobile experience will be nice.

Have you taken your GMAT? Try to hit 700 and you will have a great chance of getting in.

Good luck with your GMAT and application.

Hi Mahesh,

Your credentials are great but as far as i know, IIMB is very particular about 7 years experience. Last year they had turned down people with experience just under 7 years.

Regards

Hi there,

Very nice initiative. Thank you.

What do you think my chances will be :

X : 90% CBSE
XII : 96% [Got a State Award here]
B.Tech : 75% [ Distinction]
Extra Circulars : Head Boy at my school , College Coordinator @ BTech and Placement Coordinator and represented State BasketBall team.

Domain : Pre-Sales/Telecom
Work Ex : 6 years by 2012 June
3 years of International experience [ USA and finland]
Part of a few NGOs

GMAT : 700 [AWA 6/6]

Given the criteria for 7 yrs mentioned do you think it is still a good option to go ahead and apply?

Regards,
Mahesh

Dear Amit,

IT ERP Consulant with Infy.
Work Ex - 6.3 years - will be 7 years by March 2011
>> Looks good

International Work ex - Approx 4 years
>> Very good
Acads - above average - X - 76%, XII - 73%, BE - 78%
>> Good

GMAT - 660 (written in May 2010)
>> Seems to be on the lower side considering you are an IT person.

I think overall the profile looks good. GMAT looks to be a little on the lower side, but we have few batchmates from IT who have this GMAT score. So definitely this will not be a deal breaker. Go for it, and articulate your SOP well to bring out your strengths in other areas.

I hope this helps.

Regards

Dear EPGPians,

Thanks for starting this thread. Could you please suggest on my profile and what kind of chance I stand?

Dear Saurabh,

Glad to know that you are interested in exec MBA and are looking at IIMB. Based on last year's information, I can say that IIMB had mandated a 7 year work experience requirement. I cant officially say as of now whether the requirement still holds.

- Avg GMAT for this batch was 700. The range of GMAT is 630-770.
- Avg Work experience is 10.5
- Avg International Work Experience is 2.5

There are no doctors in the current batch however there were a couple of them in the first batch. Yes, Pharma and healthcare companies do come to IIMB for recruitment. I guess your shift from Clinical to Healthcare should not pose a big problem.

Hope this helps.

This info helps. Can you please let me also know whether there is much difference between avg gmat of batch and avg gmat of IT guys in batch. I know that avg for IT is high in other institutes. Is that the same case for EPGP too.

3. I would really appreciate..if you can take the Pain..& provide me the contacts of your Seniors at IIMB (EPGP)..who were Drs.

Hey..Thanks for taking this great initiative..which would help the aspiring students.

Well..I'm a doc with 4 yrs of Entrepreneurial experience. Got multiple admits from UK & EU b-schools..but looking at the present scenario..I've dropped my Idea & decided to go for an Exec/1Yr MBA from INDIA itself. I'm aspiring for IIMB EPGP for 2011-12 intake.
I'd appreciate if you could answer my following queries :

1. When is the work-experience calculated in the year..I mean which month? (5yrs by which month)
2. Are there any Drs in your batch?
3. What is the avr GMAT & what is that for those with diverse profiles..splly for the Drs?
4. Avr Placement stats..Avr salary & the Min-Max Salary..offered to the EPGP Graduate?
5. Did any Healthcare/Biotechnological/Pharmaceutical firm came..as a Recruiter?
6. How is the EPGP course for a Horizontal career-shift..from Healthcare-Services(Clinical) to Corporate Healthcare?

Thanks for your patience and support.

Cheers,
Dr Saurabh.
