Guys,

Feels great to add that i have calls for both BM n PMIR.
Feels awesome after the CAT debacle, with only Shillong call to show for 6 months of hard work, and then recently the Indore call.:cheerio:

Planning to start GD PI prep with full earnest from tomorrow.

My scores are:
OA : 98.43
VA : 88.88
QA : 92.7x
DI : 97.9x

10th, 12 and graduation scores at least 80 % and 12 months of work ex

Looking forward to some serious guidance from XL seniors

Cheers
Abhinav

This is because of a lot of ambiguity regarding the results. I think once the criteria chips in we will see a lot more activity.

Best of luck to everyone who has done well :thumbsup:

Congrats people..
Time to work hard now..
There is no GD for BM , but for HRM( formerlly known as PMIR) you have a GD and a PI both .
So start reading up on Current Affairs specially the last two months.
Also think about answers to questions like :
Why MBA?
Why HR( if you have a call from HR) ?
Your short term n long term goals?
Your weaknesses and strengths.
Your hobbies and interests.
Also if you are focused towards a particular stream like finance or marketing or HR (though it is suggested otherwise,keep your options open), be sure you read up enough on the same.

Guys, I have this feeling that the calls would be revised tomorrow. There is so much inconsistency in the calls given out. I think that there might be some technical glitch on the part of IT department of XLRI, which has given this weird consistency or they have taken the essays into account and given huge weightage to it. I would wait for tomorrow to see if the calls are revised. It has been charateristic of XLRI to be transparent and let's hope it turns out the same this year as well.

Anyways, seems like I would have to wait one more day to see if I have really got the coveted BM and HRM calls. :lookround:

I don't think they would have given much weightage to essays as well. At the time of writing the essay on 2nd Jan, I was so disappointed myself that I hardly wrote more than half page; and if I had to evaluate the essay myself, I would give zero marks straight away. But here I am, having call for BM and HRM ( though as of now, it might change tomorrow).

Picture would be clear tomorrow. XLRI couldn't have chosen worse time to declare the results. All it has done is to increase paranoia, disappointment, bewilderment and wild goose search among the aspirants.

Got both calls BM and HRM
VA 93.96
QA 94.56
LR 89.72
Overall 98.23 :cheerio:

Hope to get some interaction going with seniors as well as fellow call-getters! Cheers!

I got a PMIR call and it's the lone call I have this season. So it's the all the more important to me. Can anyone please tell me what's with this whole 'we'll know tomorrow' thing? Have the XLRI authorities said anything about the 'final' list being out tomorrow? I have absolutely no clue what's going on

Btw my %iles are
OA - 99.35
VA - 94.84
QA - 88.42
RDMA - 99.33

There has no been official confirmation from XLRI admissions office that there would be change in the call list. As of now, the calls are the final calls.

But due to some high inconsistency in the marks of call-getters and there academics, everyone is eager to see what was the criteria followed by XLRI to give out calls. Also, it has been by fellow puys that there might be technical glitch in the database which is showing erroneous results, though in my opinion highly unlikely.
That's why everyone is talking about tomorrow, just to see what exactly has been the process followed by XLRI.

even if they have given weightage to acads..still i don think my chances are bleak

I just hope tomo brings some hope..

congrats to the call getters:)

Guys,let me tell you one this. The final list is confirmed and no more changes would be allowed by XLRI.

Even if there were some flaws programmatically,they would not make changes due to reputation damage.

Traditionally, till last year BM process didn't include any GDs...all the shortlisted candidates were supposed to face one round of i/w...
While in case of PMIR i.e. HRM now, the process involves one round of GD and one round of PI...

For more details on how the process goes and types of questions being asked, kindly visit last year threads...that will be of great help
