Hi avinash,

Can you tell me about the guys who have attended their GD/PI through XAT and are also eligible for GD/PI through CMAT.......You have already told that they will not be called again for GD/PI but what about their result.... will their result come along with the CMAT guys after GD/PI through CMAT or it has already come and those who were not their in the first merit list are in the Waitlist or Rejected.

pls.. Reply

1. I would suggest you all not to think so much. The queries will never end.

2. You have got a call. Now work hard on converting it.

3. As i have told so many times, there is no fixed number. Everything will be based on merit.

4. We can't be sure of exact number right now. It will be clear after 16th April.

5. Suppose for example, 70 people opt out from 1st list. And 20 people are selected, then these 20 get into the list first. The remaining y number of waitlist through cmat is combined with the xat waitlist. And the top 50 get in. And this way movement will keep on happening.


P.S : Start preparing for GD/PI now.
