HI,
what is the preferred and best way to pen down the 'additional information' (Extra Curricular, Awards and Publications). Bullets or a short essay?
Hi,
I'm trying to update the contact details in the online application form for EPGP. What would be the country code/area code for Bangalore? I tried 91 for country code and 080 for Bangalore area code but the site says they are invalid. And this field is mandatory.
Please help.
Hi (@EPGP_IIMB ),
One of my recommenders tried submitting the referral today but the website has been giving error since morning. But he confirmed that he was able to login earlier.
Any clues or any info on whether the online referral form website is down today?
Should i re-trigger the referral?
I attended webinar on 16Aug, and think panel was to the point and reasonable with their answers for the most. What surprised me is, they encouraged people with Gmat more than 700 to apply. Based on the data for current batch, average is 694 and median is 700, saying there are at least half the class 700 or below. So do you think for next batch IIMB decided to increase the batch average. Is it even worth the time to apply if Gmat is less than 700 just for the sake of applying...Also panel wasn't interested in deferred admissions, are there no students from past batches that were deferred. I know IIMA PGPX has some deferred students.

I have following query regarding the EPGP application:
1.In
the academic section the 11/12/HSC/PUC subsection do I need to upload
11th and 12 th both the score sheet or 12th class is sufficient.
2.My boss doesn't want to use the official E-mail ID for the recommendations ,can I provide his personal E-mail ID?
What exactly to mention in SOP for EPGP? Do we have any specific question?
Hi,
I have recently taken Gmat with a dismal score of 650. Is there any chance of getting in IIMB? I have 8 years IT experience and average of 75% throughout (10, 12 and Engg. Degree) Please suggest.
Thanks

During the info session, the faculty spoke about a 20% weight-age for GMAT score, a 10% for diversity. Does anyone know the breakup of weight-age by application component for the other 70%?
Can anybody please confirm the list of documents required to be uploaded along with the online form? Is it just the SOP or we have to upload notarized copies of mark sheets etc..

Hi Guys,
I need your expert advice. Took my GMAT yesterday after 1 month of preparation, and got disappointing 680 (Q50 V31). But, is it ? I have already taken GMAT twice before, in 2008 with 700 and then again in last year with meager 600. I would have been much happier if I had touched 700 this time. but that's life.
Anyway, my query is whether I should apply in Indian B schools such as IIM B? or my GMAT score is too low to even get considered? Should I rather concentrate on European b school. I want to join 1 years executive course. My brief profile: 1. 10 years of work experience in Indian IT Service company, current role - Team Lead 2. 6 years of international experience 3. German as an additional language 4. X - 89%, XII - 88%, topper in college, not much extra cal. Please advise. Thank you !
Hi, One of my ex-team leads is currently not working, so he doesn't have any corporate email id. Can I give his personal email id and get his reference for the EPGP application form? I worked under him for around 4 years and he can give proper reference about me. He moved to his family business recently. Let me know. Thanks.
Hi, in application form, there is a question for describin role and responsibility for each your job with approx 200 words limit. I have been in a single company since last 11 years with 4 promotions. Should i describe job responsibility for each promotion or overall job responsibilities during last 11 yrs. The reason i am asking this question is that there is a word limit of 200 words which makes it difficult for me to write down responsibilities over the last 11 years for every promotion in total 200 words in comparison to a person who has switched multiple jobs and get 200 words each for each job change.
Puys, couldn't attend today's webinar due to prior commitments. Would help everyone on the forum if someone would kindly compile all points of interest from the webinar in a post. Thanks in advance!
Is it OK to put one's hobbies (that one cannot substantiate via certificates etc) in the extra curricular activities section? I ask this because some of us may have a special interest that will likely not fit in any other section (perhaps including the SOP)
