Regarding rescheduling of ur call, m afraid it can't be done. Its a bit late now. Anyways u hav ur SIBM call on 1st...u can always catch a flight on 2nd, or u can reach Delhi well in time by Goa Express leaving pune at 0400 hrs on 2nd and reaching Delhi at 0500 hrs on 3rd.
All the best.

thanx madhur..for ur advice.. i am coming back by goa express only... problem is dat it reaches at 6.30 over here..n if its late.. nvr mind..i'll prob catch a flight or something..
hey tanvi, SIMS ppl dont entertain such requests bcoz even I called them before they declared these dates,but they rudely refused me saying that its we who decide dates and u have to report when we call u...but ur reason is valid so u may approach them...and I talked to a girl on phone,was that U because ur voice was cracking so I cud not hear the name...anyways tc and best of luck....... Do post ur feedbacks once u r thru with ur interviews...might be very beneficial for us ........I also contacted Saurabh(our senior ) on phone and I should tell U he is very helpful and friendly,U can always call him for moral boosting

And my cat wasn't gr8 either, barely made it with snap, close but not there yet. Auf weidersien. Btw am a fan of mozart.
anyways remembered sharing smthng here.....last time i was selected for KJSomaiya n Welingkar however cud not convert the interview....tch tch naive me...... i vaguely recall the GD topic of Welingkar and the case study of KJ Somaiya....
Welingkar: "Burger vs Vada Pao" yea yea simple it does seem......7 of us had brought up topics such as indigineous product vs an MNC prod , some brought up the rich and poor divide one brought up the taste
KJSomaiya: Case study was that Ram is an executive in an MNC and wants to pursue management as it 'll enhance his opportunities and ability to manage diversified roles however the glitch was finance as he was the only one supporting his family with father passed away long time back and sister to be married soon enuff.... bank loan wouldnt help either coz it'll only finance his studies and not family.... there were 11 of us and solutions ranged from taking extra loan.... to save up some cash before plunging...to part time MBA....to get sister a job!!!
u guys can try racking ur brains too it'll help ppl....

Hi, now even more than desperate to convert the SIMS call after the recent FORE fiasco that you must have all read about at the FORE thread at PG.........god wats going on.....i mean everything really sucks....wats the point of studying hard and getting a gud score when the selection process is not transparent engh.....so now SIMS is the top notch for me.....just hoping to do well and convert it.....need your best wishes people GOD BLESS.....

Hey Vielen leute hier sprechen Deutsch und das ist wunderbar.Ich habe auch Deutsch gelernt aber ich spreche nicht gut Deutsch. Alles Gute leute (eeks!!! sorry for all the grammatical errors)
Hey neel Am not too sure about IMI never got selected!! but about welingkar its pretty usual GD/PI affair with GD first then PI and yea a psychometric test where they analyse ur leadership abilities, just kinda try to know who u r from INSIDE!!! ...... this is in computer lab where u r given a terminal and 2 word sheets where u click options pretty simple huh! But this shudnt be discussed in SIMS thread there's a seperate thread for welingkar .... As of now ppl do tell me who else in 4th feb 8 15 to 1 pm G201...... Also akshay best of luck to you... had a FORE disaster and fingers crossed for SIMS between all this i asked a friend who's in LBS to send some questions for PI
