Thing which is hurting me is that i have wasted approx 4000RS and 3days for this shit

My advice to all the pagalguy members ,who have given xiss gd/pi and not selected is that don't wait for second list as all the seats are sold and they have admitted only those guys who have paid them money, so nobody among them will left their seat.

IF you really interested in xiss keep your finger cross & hope that xiss results will be canceled. some guys have filed the PIL against the institute so plz support th

As u have told that in 2007 admissions were canceled this again prove the point that seats are sold ,why the company goes to that institute as it does not have any fair student selected. best thing for this sort of institute is that company should ban it they shoud ask institute on which ground they have admitted the student. i can say with 100 % surety that not even single guy is admitted on merit :banghead::banghead:




I HAVE 97.2%TILE IN XAT 25 MONTH WORK EXP DECENT ACCADMIC GIVEN GD/PI UNDER SC/ST EVEN THOUGH I'M NOT SELECTED I WANT TO KNOW THE MANAGEMENT OF XISS THAT THEY HAVE ANY BETTER GUY THEN ME IN SC/ST QUOTA EVEN IF I GOT ADMISSION I WOULD HAVE THOUGHT TWICE BEFORE JOINING IT.IT WAS CERTAINLY WASTE OF MY TIME AND MONEY .:banghead:

:-( MY ADVICE TO ALL FUTURE STUDENT IS THAT IF U HAVE MONEY AND LINK TO PAY THEN ONLY APPLY TO XISS HOW WELL U DO IN YOUR GD/PIOR HAVING AN EXCELLENT %TILE U WILL NOT BE SELECTED IN ANY CASE,THEY R THERE JUST TO REJECT U IF U HAVE NOT PAID THE MONEY:-(:-(:-(:-(:-(:-(:-(:-(

now i agree wid u, yes seats r sold. i always knw ths, but never thought to this extent dat allll.............seats can b sold., it happend in 2007 when al seats were sold but admissions were canceled n dean was sacked after board members intervened, let's hope d same happens again

Hi everyone,
I am a second year student at Welingkar. I would like to give you a balanced but honest view on the institute after going through this thread.
There are several parameters that we use to judge an mba institute like:
1. Faculty
2. Placements
3. Research
4. Infrastructure
5. Brand Equity
6. Management Quota
1. Faculty: As far as the faculty are concerned, I would say that the faculty is ok. We do have a mix of teachers as well as industry people. I personally feel that the faculty could be better, but it is decent. In certain fields like finance, we have some very good professors, who are very practical in their approach. Every institute has its share of good and bad teachers. I would rate the faculty as 6.5/10
2. Placements: The placements at Welingkar are truly terrible. I am not talking about the placements this year which are on the whole terrible across institutes, but I witnessed placement week for the 2007 -08 batch as well and was not impressed. The figures quoted on the website are misleading.(most colleges do that... ) Whilst there are a handful of good profiles and packages on campus, the average of 7 lakhs is definitely inflated. In 2007, when the economy was doing well, the average package was actually somewhere around 5 lakhs (if you remove the international offers which is what spikes up the numbers). The people who were placed on day 0 and day 1 received offers between 6-8 lakhs, with 1-2 offers of 10 lakhs. The 17 lakh package which is quoted as the highest domestic package was not on campus. The student used his own contacts, the company did not even come on campus to recruit. From day 2 onwards, the packages fell drastically to 3-4 lakhs. If you are a lateral, I would definitely not recommend Welingkars because you are unlikely to get a lateral profile or package. For freshers, its a good option.
Also, placements are the best in Marketing. Marketing students are usually offered sales profiles. (which i believe is the norm in most colleges). Finance placements are always bad and the usual profiles for finance students are sales and relationship management. HR & Ops placements for the '08 batch were good but this year are non-existent. I would rate the placements as 1.5/10
3. Research: There is absolutely no focus on research or case studies. Infact, Welingkar is not at all an academically oriented institute. In our college extra curriculars are valued more. Unfortunately, the extra curriculars are not at all relevant. They are activities like dahi handi and cricket matches. I would rate the research orientation as 2.5/10
4. Infrastructure: The infrastructure at Welingkar is amazing. We have plush interiors, wi-fi networks, airconditioning etc etc. This is one area, noone can complain about. I would rate the infrastructure as 10/10
5. Brand Equity: Welingkar is not a well known brand outside of Mumbai or Bangalore. Even within Mumbai, several top companies refuse to recruit at Welingkar. We have a certain reputation in the industry. Industry people find that students are not up to the mark in terms of basic concepts. This is usually for two reasons. One - We have a trimester system (in the PG course) and so all our knowledge is superficial & Two - Most of our students are lazy and uninterested, usually spoilt rich kids. Unfortunately, Welingkar is excellent in its branding abilities and thus prospective students are made to feel that the Welingkar tag is worth something. I would rate the brand equity of Welingkar as 5/10
6. Management Quota: Well.... whatever has been said about management quota is true. Welingkar has barely any merit seats. Most of the seats are paid seats. In the graduating batch, there are 180 students in the core PGDM batch. We can safely say that approx 80% of these students are on management quota. Infact, students at Welingkar freely admit that they have paid for their seats, they seem to be proud of it. The amount depends on who you know or don't know, your profile and how early or soon you approach the institute. The amount varies from 15 lakhs - 30 lakhs (it's insane - i know!!!!)
Well, thats everything that I could think of. I've tried to be as neutral as possible so that potential applicants have a good idea of what's in store. I would like to add, that I have had a good time in Welingkars for two years. I made good friends and enjoyed attending college. However, if you ask me about value-add, well i dont really think there was much of that.
All the best to everyone for their MBA admissions!

I have gone through your post ,if it is true that 80%of the seats are sold then it would be very difficult for any fair student to get an admission in welingkar :banghead::banghead:.secondly as u have said that people used to pay 15-30 lakhs for admission are they not aware of the placement status.
i have given the gd/pi of welingkar but after reading your post i think my chances for converting it would be very rare:banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead:
plz tell what was the placement % of 2007 & 2008 passouts
