no official list yet bt pple hv posted on fb about converts..last rank to post so far is 1050

thnx dude....hope I make it....though too many ppl on fb n pg willing to join make me worried

I analyse things in very absurd manner but I'd like to go ahead in the same manner with this one as well...
Last year IM was available at 636 in the second movement which happened around 14th June. i.e. a week before registration started and finally 638 converted PGPM.
For this year if I were to take a similar base, I would consider today's movement and consider the last rank which converts HR.

So, my speculation would be that 715 +/- 10 should convert PGPM finally.

I think that we shouldn't just look at the numbers...sure they do look encouraging compared to waitlist movement at the same time last year but I guess there has been a change this time around...MDI has called candidates individually to know if they will join the courses if offered cos many may waitlisted candidates may have already converted somewhere else...so the waitlist movement is not consecutive and maybe thats why the administration is having a hard time to display the list...still I hope a senior confirms what process was adopted last year....

merit rank 1064

For Puys worried about buffer calls!!!!
501 candidates have been offered admission for 60 General category seats..another 250 have been waitlisted...u can easily find out for other categories as well

Boss it is a good course you have to spend a year in europe at other b-school fees is high. newaz there is a thread for PGP IM where seniors had given all the info.

P.S - I m also an aspirant

could you post the link please

as per last year(2011) trends the cutoff rank was around 1170..but I hv tried to look on PG for trends of 2010 and 2009 to get a clearer idea but was left a bit confused because earlier there used to be different waitlists for diff courses I guess..I think (am not sure) dat I read somewhere that for 2010 last rank for PGHR was just 1040

It has been discussed earlier as well, we need to do short term industry projects, weekend projects, research papers in sales and marketing and/or some small projects of our own to build the profile for marketing.

2. Marketing companies look at your extra-currics/PORs/social work etc apart from acads. In fact this is one field where you just need to prove that you have the ability to take initiative and shoulder responsibility more than the ability to mug up stuff. So what you can do is develop hobbies/participate in events/work for NGOs etc to enhance your profile.

Heyy I am an Engg. fresher and don't have any good extra-currics to mention about and hv MDI GD/PI on 15th...
1. will it sound vague if I talk about marketing as a specialization...a preference reached upon not entirely but to a large extent by going through this thread in the past few days...have not done any research as yet (any books or strategies..never went into that depth to analyse ads etc.)...
2. and in case I don't get through a good B-school this time I hv placement offers from IT co like Infy n HCL...could you please elaborate on how to get involved in such projects so that I have a better profile for next time..
