Hi varun..thanks for responding to my post..after reading the post i have realised that a good score and very good profile is desirable for a call from SIOM...could you please elaborate on that, i mean any relevant experiece is mandatory or just work ex is acceptable and things like that...i would like to discuss my profile with you...please evaluate it and advise me on my chances of getting a call..i am currently working for IBM..i will be having 15+ months experience by this jan...i have done my bachelors's in INDUSTRIAL ENGINEERING from a private college affiliated to JNTU in Andhra Pradesh with a credential of 75% (which is considered pretty decent in andhra... in my schooling and inter i have acads of 80%...please help out with this as i am kind of seriously looking forward for an MBA in Operations Management...Thanks in advance!!!

Work-experience is not mandatory. And your profile is quite good. However, everything is going to be relative while giving out the calls.
And since you seriously are looking forward for MBA in Operations, SIOM would be a good choice for your career.
We'll soon start a new thread on PG dedicated to SIOM once the SNAP notification is out.

Hi seniors...it is been a great relief to me after seeing this post..at last i found post related to SIOM. i have few things to be adressed.
1) i heard that there are no section cut offs for snap test..is this valid for SNAP 2008.
2)what was the cut off range for SIOM in 2007..after seeing the poll i got an idea but just want to confirm it .. is it around 50 -60 ..
3)will be having equal chance in getting placed in the Banking and Financial Service and automotive as i do not carry a relevant work experience..i am currently working for IBM..i will be having a experience of of 15 months by the time of GD/PI...
4)one piece of advice to get through the cut off's..

THANKS IN ADVANCE!

Last year only SIBM had sectional cut-offs and no other institute except SIBM under the Symbiosis umbrella had sectional cut-offs.

SIOM gives profile based GD/PI calls and calls can pour in even at relatively low scores provided the candidate has an excellent profile. However, securing a high score will not guarantte you a call and last year there were many candidates who got rejected at good scores because of their not so good profiles. I saw the posts of a few aspirants not getting a call even at a score of 95. However, SNAP score does count in giving out the calls.

Work-experience helps in getting the call. Only engineers with aggregate of over 50% in engg (put together in all semesters) are elligible to apply for SIOM.

For knowing in detail about the selection process, you can refer to my interview on URL: Interview Link

Amit has already sent a mail to SIOM regarding not taking up the seat. Only then Puneet Hardaha was offered the seat. Let's see if there is anyone else who is vacating his/her seat. Only in that case you'll be offered the admission. All the best!

Frens there is some news for ppl in waitlist... One of my frens in ST WL got call from SIOM office today, asking if he was interested in taking up seat in SIOM as one of the seats in ST category was vacant... But my fren had already reserved seat in SIIB. Hence ppl who are there on the brink of WL can hv some hope as may one or two seats may b still up for grabs for various reasons. So ppl who are there on the edge of WL please see that you have given right phone number to college or I guess u can even call up college n check for ur latest status in merit list.

All the best!!!

All the best.

Hey Guys,

Relax. I'm terribly sorry, if I had mentioned wrong. I never meant in that way. I openly apologize for uttering such a word in this forum. I'll take care that this won't be repeated again.

As far as meaning of the word goes, you are absolutely correct. Point taken. Even in my post I didn't deny this. I just mentioned about the contextual message. We all will take care not to repeat this even if contextual usage is correct.

HI varun

I agree with u that this may b used in friendly way but there are many words which r vulgar but taken in friendly contextual ..

Please tell me whats the dictionary meaning of this.. and also as per the wiki link also.. Please read the first line where it clearly mention it as a vulgar word. I cant post it here for obvious reason. Please understand the merit of using this in forum .. Same messages can be conveyed properly in a PM if one wish. Also as a ambassador of college and guide of this thread Its expected same u will also discourage people to do.

as a laymen if a user comes here and see these kinda words being used..it propagates a wrong notion about forum and taken as a place where these words n expletives are used freely.

Hope u get my point.. nothing is personal or so here.. do understand that .

Thanks

Hi diablorulez,
Although it's correct that it's inappropriate to use vulger words, I think you have taken the meaning out of context. Even the Wiki has given its contextual usage in friendship at URL: Bugger - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia and it is also quoted below:

Hi diablorulez,
Although it's correct that it's inappropriate to use vulger words, I think you have taken the meaning out of context. Even the Wiki has given its contextual usage in friendship at URL: Bugger - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia and it is also quoted below:

Today, the term is a general-purpose expletive, used to imply dissatisfaction (bugger, I've missed the bus , or used to describe someone whose behaviour is in some way displeasing (the bugger's given me the wrong change).
The word is also used amongst friends in an affectionate way (you old bugger) and is used as a noun in Welsh English vernacular to imply that one is very fond of something (I'm a bugger for Welsh cakes). It can also imply a negative tendency (He's a silly bugger for losing his keys) .

Please correct me if I am wrong.

prescot Says

I would like to know the refund rules followed by siom on forfeiting a seat after classes commence. In the first place I doubt whether they will return any money at all. If anybody has some idea pls let me know

Full amount minus Rs. 1000 will be refunded if the admission is canceled before commencement of the classes. After starting of the classes, the amount will be refunded after making the proportionate deductions. However, in both the cases the refund is applicable only if vacant seat is filled by another candidate. In case SIOM decides not to fill the seat or there is no candidate opting to take the seat, you will not be refunded any amount at all even if you withdraw your admission. This is in lines with AICTE rules.
