donno why this rumour is going arnd here...
i know of a girl whose father is a prof in xl n she didn't make it...
so it all boils down to how well u do at the interview...
personally i feel it's tougher if ur father/mother is a prof there ...
coz u've gottta over-prove urself...
they (the ad-com) would wanna be fair...
n they may go overborad to show that there r no nepotism rules as such :)

MY ADMIT CARD SAYS:-

You should bring the following to the Test Center:

Your Test Admit Card (printout of this).

Any photo identity card such as passport, driving license, an identity letter with photo and signature attested by your college Principal / Vice Principal.

Two Sharpened HB Pencil.

Please Note :

Calculators, electronic diaries, cell phones, beepers or any similar electronic equipment, cameras and any pieces of paper are not allowed in the Test Center.

i really dunno if this is the right thread to post in but I am desperate..
I tried logging in to printout my XAT admit card.I could initially login but when I had to login for a second time to access my admit card...it kept saying "password incorrect" blah blah...then I tried changing my password in the first login and tried it again. This time it said, "Your admit card has not been generated"
It now keeps saying that!
Is there anybody else with the same problem? Does it simply mean they havent uploaded my admit card yet or is there a problem?? 😞

hi,

Last year XAT had same questions across different sets but in different order. The way we have in board exams :P.

Also, the sections are in different order in different sets. i.e., when you r attempting GK section, you neighbour would be attempting quant or english.

However, this is what has been hapening since past few years and the paper setter(s) can change the pattern if they wish to. Even in that case i am sure fairness would be ensured.

Regards

Kush

PS-> no, XAT does not follow GRE format

hey tinkerbell...even i had the same problem of password incorrect. If u did not see there is a button called "forgot password". Why dint you use that instead of changing passwords??? Click that button & you will get your correct password in your mail box.

hi guys,

are there any questions on labour laws? and if any what kinds, i hope they are real basic ones or do the XL ppl expect us to go into the details of labour laws as well at this stage?

hi,

you are not expected to know labor laws at this stage. You might be asked labor laws in interview ONLY IF you are a law graduate. So relax and just prepare the regular stuff.

Cheers

Hey kush buddy,

i hav this doubt regarding the XAT essay, just wanted to know whether the essay should be written in any particular style or tone, i know giving facts and figures would be great, but should the tone be a neutral one or should we take a stand on the topic, if at there is some debateable topic that is!!!

cheers,

vinod.

helloo

Can someone pls post the importance/weighttage given to essays. And how long should it be? Style etc etc....
