1 I have still not received my GD/PI letter, when can I expect the same?

All the GD/PI letters have been dispatched. If the same is not received by 20th of Feb then contact the admissions office.

Contact Details:
Admissions Office
Mr. Xavi Thomas
Phone:0674-3983-806
Email: xavi@ximb.ac.in

Q.2 What is the procedure to change the venue/date of my allocated GD/PI schedule?

As soon as you receive your GD/PI schedule, forward a mail to admisn@ximb.ac.in clearly stating the need and the reason for changing the allocated schedule. Wait for the confirmation.

Q3: Do you have reservation of seats?

As such there no defined number of reserved seats, however for the domicile category applicants the cut-off of the XAT scores are lowered. Once the calls are given out for GD/PI, all applicants are at the same platform, and depending upon their overall performance they are judged.

Q4: Is there separate GD/PI lists for CAT and XAT applicants?

No, there is only a single list for all the applicants.

Q5: Is there any difference in the CAT and XAT score short listing?

The short listing is done on the basis of cut-off percentiles (sectionals and overall). Both CAT and XAT percentiles have the same weight age.

Q6: Which are the XIMB GD/PI centres?

GD & PI will be held in Bangalore, Bhubaneswar, Chennai, Delhi, Kolkata and Mumbai.

Q7: What are the criteria for final selection?

The final selection will be made on the basis of the candidate's performance in the XAT/CAT as well as in the Group Discussion and Personal Interview (which factors in the past academic record and relevant work experience). The selected candidates will be informed by mail in the month of April 2012.

Q8: When will the new session start?

The programme will begin by the middle of June 2012 for the first year students.

Q9: Does the previous work experience have any weight age in selection criteria?

Yes, weight age is given to work experience during the final selection process.

Q10: Is it compulsory to stay on campus for residential MBA program at XIMB?

Yes. Its a residential program with complete hostel facility provided to students.

Q.11: What documents should I be carrying to the GDPI?

Carry 3 copies of your resume. Also, carry a folder with all your certificates including academic certificates, work experience certificates (joining letter should do if currently working), extracurricular certificates etc.

Q.12: Do I need to carry any proof of domicile (if I am an Orissa domicile) to the GDPI?

No, you do not need to carry any proof of domicile to the GDPI. The proof of domicile will be needed if you clear the GDPI and obtain admission to XIMB.

Q.13: What should I wear to the GDPI?

For girls, a formal shirt and trousers is preferable (blazer optional). Alternatively, Indian formals can also be worn. For male aspirants, a business suit is the most suitable.

Q.14: I have been shortlisted for both PGDM(BM) and PGDM(HRM). Will I have two separate GD-PIs.

No, you will have only one GD-PI.

All the best!
