Hi
What all documents do we need to carry for the interview/GD ?

Hi,
regarding the mail that came to us for reconfirmation..its written:

Meanwhile all the candidates who have been called for the process are requested to Reconfirm the eligibility criteria for the respective Programme as per the admission handout uploaded on the website.

Plz someone make it clear..where is it uploaded on website and what exactly are we supposed to do??

Hey it's not a big deal.I have seen a lot of people here freaking out about the same issue.Its just a reminder from NMIMS that u should be eligible for their MBA program nothing else!Shouldn't all of you have checked the eligibility criteria before applying to a particular institute(read NMIMS)???Then why the panic.Just a routine e-mail which i deleted the moment i got it!!!

Hi seniors

Can you please tell what is unique or special to NMIMS (like certain extra curricular clubs, social projects, foreign languages etc)?

P.S: I have gone through the webpage. So some insights as students of NMIMS would be really helpful.

Thanks in advance!

piyushsethia Says

seniors, plz tel wt shud we do next? where to confirm?

No confirmation is required. It only means that you should be sure of your eligibility and they can cancel your candidature at any stage of process if they find that you are not eligible.

Saurav kgp Says

Can anyone kindly tell me if a 2nd shortlist will be out or not for the Mumbai campus?? My NMAT score is 205 and I have cleared all the 3 sections.......just missed the overall cutoff by 3 marks....

No second shortlist for GDPIs. (unless they start it this year, which seems unlikely)

Hi Puys,

Can any1 please tell me documents to be carried on the D-day

I just got the mail too.
So I checked the criteria again.

NMAT 2012::NMIMS Management Aptitude Test (NMAT)


If any senior could please answer the query:

A clause in the criterion states:
Candidates should have cleared their final year of graduation in the first attempt only. At the time of admission, the candidate should have cleared all the trimesters / semesters.

I am in my final year and have an outstanding backlog. Am I ineligible?

As long as you can clear your degree exam before joining college and produce migration certificate and degree by october (latest december) then you are fine.

seniors...
subah utha to KHATARNAAK e-mail padha NMIMS waalo ka....
i had a backlog in 2nd semester which was eventually cleared in 4th semester(the very next attempt).
after that, i have had no pending backlogs.... moreover, my university follows the credit system, wherein one has the option of leaving 13 credits and still get the final degree...
PS: 7th sem result is still awaited...

I just got the mail too.
So I checked the criteria again.

NMIMS ka dhamki bhara mail :D. kamjor dil ke aspirants please dont open the mail. i thought i made some mistake in docs and it is meant only for me.

Me tooo!! Thought it was only for me!! Doling out the mail at 1 AM! :o
How do we reconfirm ??? Any idea about the lnik...?

vipulbest Says

Thanks for the info buddy ! So that means that technically, according to the last year trends, everybody with 99 %ile + will get an automatic convert ? Because with 70% weightage to the NMAT score, if we take percentile as the parameter, a 100 %iler will get the full quota of 70 marks, right ? The GD-PI process will be just a formality with these guys. Please correct me if I am missing something. Kudos Vipul

remember that gdpi carries 15 marks so nothing is an automatic convert.
u never no wat can happen in a bad gd/pi unless u r into 1..so prepare for the worst and hope for the best

just got a mail few minutes before from NMIMS havinf subject "Reconfirmation of eligibility criteria by candidates shortlisted for GD/PI"
@shanebond : Do we have to reply to it through mail ??? or it is just a reminder sent to us to check the eligibility criteria.

I think its just a reminder.

" Dear Candidate,

Please note that the documents sent by you for the Group Discussion & Personal Interview process of FT MBA Batch 2011 are in the process of scrutiny which will be completed in due course.
Meanwhile all the candidates who have been called for the process are requested to Reconfirm the eligibility criteria for the respective Programme as per the admission handout uploaded on the website. The eligibility criteria of any candidate if found lacking, his/her candidature will get cancelled and the processing fees will be forfeited. Please note that at any stage, it is found that a
Candidate does not satisfy the eligibility criteria or the information furnished by him/ her in the online registration is incorrect, his/her application for the admission to the course, even if selected, will stand cancelled. Candidates appearing for Group Discussion & Personal Interview will do so at their own risk of eventually forfeiting their admission for want of meeting the eligibility criteria.

Regards Admission Department "

Can u please provide the link to "admission handout" that is beong talked about ?

Received a mail from Admissions , "Reconfirmation of eligibility criteria by candidates shortlisted for GD/PI" ....

As the total marking will be out of 100.
With break up as below:
70% Written
5% Work Ex
10 % Academics
7.5% GD
7.5 % PI
Does anyone have idea how to calculate the marks for academics??
What i have thought would be something like:

((10th marks+12th marks+ Graduation marks))/3*(10/100)

any how much marks can we expect for work ex??
i have close to 3.5 yrs of experience.
Does the marks depend on number of years of experience or do they take into consideration the quality of work too?

people can only speculate on the formula here as it is not in public domain. But score of academics and work-ex can depend on how you answer questions related to these in the interview.

During final selection, a score is given out of 100. So, can the seniors tell me the least score last year that finally converted MBA core??

Also what was the least score that made it in the first list itself.. ?

I see people talking about CV's. Is it really needed? I don't think it was mentioned anywhere in their call letter, or did I miss something? If we do have to bring it, what should be included in it? Work ex, acads, or what? Seniors, please help. Also, what all documents should we bring along apart from call letter, photo ID, marksheets (original)?

Thanks :cheers:

kindly browse the last few pages n you'll get your answers.

Any idea as to how many people NMIMS Mumbai have called this time around.
Seems people with 93.5 percentile onward have got calls and going upto 100 . 50,000 people registered and say 97-98 percent people took the test, it means that 48k people took the test. 6.5 percent of that would mean close to 3200 people and there would be some people out 93.5 plus percentilers who would have cleared the overall cutoffs but missed the sectionals and that would be approx 2% that means 3200-640 = 2560 .. so round about the same number of people as the last time round ... also any information as to what are the number of seats .. have there been any increment in its number?

the explanation may be a bit hypothetical.

Mba Core(300) + Capital(60) + banking(60) + acturial(30) + hr(30) = 480 seats in mumbai campus(except for pharma)

I am definitely not spamming here....since so many candidates are coming from all over India,last minute changes in the schedule seriously affects everyone....this is a major concern that's why am asking.
