Hi ..rohit,

If I am nt wrong...U must have passed out of NMIMS by now,and must be a manager of some gr88 firm.
If u can put some light on the placements of Sectoral Mba and Core Mba it will be of gr88 help.As, placements stats for Sectoral MBA r nt mentioned.I hav been told my IMS that Sectoral MBA is nt good for Guys wid Work Ex. in comparison wid Core MBA.
Companies giv 1st preferance to Core MBA and hence their packages r high.
IS it ryt...?
Any other guy or NMIMSian....reading this query....Pls do clear my doubt....

Thanks in Advance

NM seniors...any updates on the placements this year? It has been a while that we have heard from u ppl bout the placements

sorry fellas, we got really busy our exec placements....

Well fellas esentially biographical sketch is all abt u have done till date...schooling, college, work ex....but everywhere a purpose to state "why MBA" has to subtly understated....and in the end a splash about ur family(bro, sis educ) wud be prefered(as per administration) but this aint so essential as the rest....
so jot down a full page and just relax....as chances are less that u will be grilled on that....until or unless u state something fairly astonishing.

cheers and all the best.

hi, i'm new here. read ur post abt bio. a bit too late, i had already sent mine which reads only abt my interests, how much damage hv i done? can u tell how many ppl r there in gd? is work ex imp? im a fresher, got a 200-odd rank, good in acads in cllg but not so good in school.

guys there seems to be a duplication of threads. all of you can check out thread NMIMS GD/PI 2006-'08 calls out as well. some queries such as till what rank ppl were finally selected are repeated here.

thanx mosh....
this may seem a little stupid....does one have to send a print-out of the essay or a hand written copy?
also during the final selection, do they take the NMAT score or the ranking into consideration..it should really be score, coz in the 80s, 1 mark separates almost a 100 odd ppl....

Can any senior put more light on the entire process.
GD and PI
preferabley tellng in more details and sighting ones own expereince..
It would be helpful...

And also how is the systems specialization in NM....

thanks guys
i was also quite confused about the biographical essay
the dates for the gd pi have been declared but not the batches in which we have been allocated
so we'll probably have to wait till out money reaches the authorities and then thy will allocate the batches and the dates of our interviews
atb to the applicants

please NM seniors help
wat exactly is biographical sketch
wat points we havre to include and wat not

we have to post th form also just a week left

The biographical sketch is essentially different from SOP (correct me if I m wrong Senior bhai log


Should the biography delve in ur past, touching ur present and extend further to future??

NM seniors can help us on this front..

Hey rohit....thanx for the informative first post.....could u shed some light on what we need to write on the 'bio-graphical' sketch....??

Can seniors please throw light on the Biography part..
Guess we would be grilled on that basis too. So what exactly do we mention. Should it be more towards to the extra currics part, strenghts and weakness etc.. kindly advice

I gave NMIMS interview last time around as well. There criterion is quite open and clear. They allott there marks in the following manner:
SMAT marks = 200:satisfie:
PI = 50:satisfie:
GD = 30:satisfie:
Work Experience = 20 (8 marks for the time period for which u r in employment and 12 marks for the value additions u provide to ur company):(
Total = 300:neutral:
Final ranks r allotted on this basis
:

Thanks a lot for sucha valuable information
could also be specific when u mention what was the last rank in the written test
both with and without work ex to be a part of ur BATCH
will be really apriciated

With the large no calls for GD & PI for NMIMS Round 2 becomes all the more important . Request PG seniors at NMIMS campus to shed some light on the process.

I have a 2.5 yr exp in a manufacturing industy( BE chemical engg). Is the interview focussed on work profile and responsibilities or do the interviews enjoy grilling on the graduation . I guess with out some serios brush up i will be a loser in the latter.

Is GD a elimination round ? i.e Does every one get to attend both GD and PI ?...

Plz help by posting replies... Got a merit of 649 ..hope to convert it...Need PG ites help in the journey...

Thnks ...
Unni:smile:

hi friends , interview dates will be declared later , i think its on mid feb and we will exactly now them on 31 jan . meanwhile we have to send them a dd of rs 800 .

Ya....its a good forum to start and its a sincere appeal to all NM seniors to come ahead and post their previos NM gd/pi experiences. It will be of great help to people like us who are nbanking on NM....
