Similar profile with years of work ex... still no CAll... No list as yet!

Congrats to all call getters.

I am anxious to know if they consider the sectional percentiles and question on why the QA percentile was so less with the others being above 95%? I scored around 20.xx in Quants. I have got a call for the GDPI but hopefull that they dont consider the sectionals
542
I have got 75.95%ile in XAT.
Hvnt recd any mail........
Any hopes??????

same case ! 75.95 .. hoping against hope....

Shortlisting is done only on the basis of XAT/CMAT scores. However your certificates will be considered during the GD/PI process.

i m state level hockey player ,, i have a certificate of state level tournament.. will gim consider this for shortlisting..?

Shall we start a mock GD that is specifically for GIM people here? Perhaps seniors here can provide a topic daily. Its ok if there is no analysis posted.

I know it will be similar to this thread http://www.pagalguy.com/discussions/2011-12-gdpi-helpline-by-nitie-students-the-last-lap-to-enter-dream-b-schools-25075440 but we can do it for GIM too.

Hi,
I dont think this is required, keeping in mind that a similar thread is already there....

Also, with only 10 days in hand, this energy should be spent in brushing up the current affairs/economic scenarios etc around the world by reading magzines/news-papers.

Just a suggestion. Rest lies on the moderators of this group

I was getting quite a few PM's on answer for WHY GIM?

My Views :

1. Honesty : Not every college tell you all aspects of their admission process.

2. GIM has gone bigger with better campus, huge infrastructure.

3. More courses : Operations started as Majors

4. CSR as a compulsory program

5. Lot many things for fan of Music : GIM CHOIR

6. Good Placements despite the bad market scenario

We all have no issues in you discussing on anything related to preps of gd/pi.

We will try and help as much as we can.

Ok so I am very unsure how the GD of proverbial statements should proceed.

For instance consider the last year's GD topic: One should not be too honest. Straight trees are cut first.

Seniors please let us know how the GD went. How to start them, what are the valid points and what can be conclusion.

Everyone please contribute all that you can on this topic. It will help us all.

For these type of topics, always think on both sides of the topic.

Why one should not be too honest?

Why one should be very honest?

Then try to conclude by drawing a line in between.

Hi sir,

My interview is clashing with that of new IIM's.
You said you will confirm about rescheduling from the management.
Is there any update on that?

Thanks

1. Very sorry that things are getting delayed which should not have been.

2. But these decisions are not taken in a hurry. There are severe consequences that college may face.

3. First of all, let the link of result be uploaded on the site. Then only will they decide whether to allow re scheduling or not? Quite a few people haven't received the mails yet.

1) Its been 9 months that I have been working with an IT MNC.
I am in dilemma here, should I study more topics which are work related or should I study what was taught in college??

2) College mein toh bohot saare subject the. Any particular subjects one needs to do (keeping past trend in mind), for an Electronics and Communication engineering graduate?

3) Do they ask for the candidates preference on which subject he wants to be questioned on?? that ways I can at least brush up 2 3 subjects which I knew best in college.

4) Do questions related to final year project pop up??

1. Since you have lesser work ex, you may have to work on both.

2. No Idea. Will tell some Electronics guy to post here.

3. That is not compulsory, but do have two or three fav topics.

4. The project is the most important thing. Don't miss reading that.
