Another query seniors...

Can we get our GD PI dates rescheduled...? If yes, then how do we go about it?

Hi folks...

Reviving this thread for the 09-11 admissions season at IME IIT Kanpur...


The result site where we saw the IIT Kanpur shortlist has now been updated with your GD PI call details/timings/date... Kindly check it out...

Also,

For me, the status is coming as Form incomplete, complet at time of GD PI..

Seniors, can anybody tell me whom should I contact to learn about what is incomplete in my form? Because as far as I remember, I had completed it in all respects. If at all some document is missing, I need to know that beforehand so that I can arrange that document.


Thanks in advance.

what new law? when did it come?

I read it on Times of India that this time we can opt out of a college before the session starts and the college will move the waiting list as the students vaccant the seat....

Hi seniors,
i wanted to know that does IIT kanpur fill all its seat.. i mean like other colleges do they keep moving the waiting list till the last seat is filled or they have some set parameters that after some limit they dont move the list even though the seat may go vacant.
For according to the new law which is introduced a college has to move the waiting list till all the seats are filled..

Hi,
I have no idea about the new law and if it is the case, then IIT K authorities must have the information about it. We have discussed here a lot about this issue. Every time the discussion ends with more uncertainties about this year's trend. And the reason being that we have only limited information and it is the faculty who decides, make and implement policies and as expected it change with each passing year. At the time of our selection we also had a long discussion on this issue, but ultimately nothing could be predicted with certainty.

So, let us wait and watch and this year's uncertainty will also settle with time. And that time does not seem to far away.
All the best!

Hi seniors,

My gd/pi process was on 23rd....
Name-Vipul Arora
Registration No.-361182
Jmet Rank-157

On my scheduled date..i did nt bring my 12th class passing certificate...so I wrote an application...and a citation was opened against me....
then I sent the attested copy of that certificate...

Can you please varify whether IIT K has received my certificate's copy or not...

thanx in advance

hello friends,

The office is regularly receiving the documents sent by some of the candidates... and no issues in that.
And as the GD/PI process is over, things have become extremely confidential and we are totally out of the process now.....and as students, it won't be possible to give the confirmatory details for individuals. Hope you understand....

cheers,

don't worry u will recieve it soon...I got it yesterday only....
m from Delhi...

sumobom4 Says

I had called up IITK and they told me that everyone has to report at IITK @ 9AM on their respective day. Plus, since I m working, I cant afford to waste time going by train. So, I have already booked flight tickets to Lucknow via Delhi (Air India flight IC601), coz thats the fastest way to travel from Mumbai. Kanpur can be reached frm Lucknow by road (arnd 70 km). Hope this helps.

Kadayintip Says

thanks...so can i expect the process to be completed by 3pm???

If ur interview is scheduled for the morning slot, there is no reason for you to worry about. The process will be completed before 3 pm.
But, for all good reasons, if there is a flight after 17:50, better to go for that later flight.
Coz, we can guarantee inside IIT-K, but not outside (I mean traffic jams etc.)

hi friends..
i have my interview on 23rd... i have one extra ticket from kanpur to mumbai of 23rd night (10:30 pm). Do any body need it....

Seniors,
Got the call letter.. And congo for coming out with an informative brochure..
:thumbsup: They have given 2 email ids to confirm accommodation arrangements.. So essentially i need to send them in writing that i would be arriving on so and so date and i need accom as such...

is that it? or is there more to the accom confirming procedure... plz elaborate... thanks..

Yeah..
if you let them know, accordingly, you will be given accommodation, I mean from ur day of arrival to ur leaving etc.
This time, we have sent a brochure to let you know people a little more about IIT-K at the first hand.
Keep checking our life @ IIT Kanpur MBA. You'll come to know more about it & our business events this year.

If you belong to chennai, I would advise you the following way:
See if you can change the dates of KJSOM to 21st. From B'lore, take a flight to Delhi to attend IMI interview on 22nd.
Then, you can come here by 23rd morning or 22nd night & attend the interview. Else, you need to come to north, go to south, south to north. Lot of traveling & expense.So, better to speak to KJsomaiya & IMI.
In case of any difficulty, call up the admissions office.

Last year, I gave 5 interviews in a span of 9 days.
I traveled from Hyd to Roorkee, Roorkee to Hyd, Hyd to Nasik, Nasik to Kanpur, Kanpur to Hyd, Hyd to Blore, B'lore to Manipal, Manipal to Hyd; especially IIT-K (@ Kanpur), KJSOM (@ B'lore), TAPMI (@ Manipal) were in a span of 4 days. Of course, I was lucky enough to have them consecutively without clashing. But, I took risks. After SIOM final interview by the director, I had just 40 min. to reach the station. I spoke to them & my interview was slightly moved so as to reach the station in time to catch the train to Kanpur.
What I would like to tell you is: Talk to respective B schools instead of worrying that I have to lose 1 B school to the other.
All the best.
