XIMB : Solution Centre '09

I was almost sure of converting XIMB and I dont understand wat is d problem.

Hi,
I have been rejected despite of 98.45%ile in XAT and a decent gdpi performance.I m pasting my gdpi performance kindly let me know why I couldnot make it.Coz 160+260 is a huge number and then too 420/795 means a very decent conversion rate.I know 3 ppl in my group of 7 got through.Please help.
...........
I stood up and asked (to my sir) sir if you dont mind can you please tell me where did you teach me?
P3)Who taught you Workshop technology.
I recalled smiled and moved out.


Hi Richa ,
I understand your disappointment at not converting XIMB despite have a decent looking GD-PI . You have to understand that the admission committee might have certain requirements while finalising the admission list such as profile mix , acad mix etc. while also looking at the student's performance in the GD/PI. One can never be sure of the reason as to why one's call was converted or rejected because it may even depend on things such as body language or speaking ability. So don't lose heart at this juncture . All the best for your other calls.

This kind of a problem is not so uncommon with freshers. If I recall correctly, you will need a provisional certificate from your institute head certifying that you have completed all the formalities of ur engg course and that you have appeared for the final exams and are awaiting the results of the same. Then, when the results are declared, you need to submit the marksheets. Do remember that until then, ur admission is provisional.

Yes, the waitlisted candidates will get letters from XIMB. The details will be clearly mentioned therein.

And what if i need to appear the supplementary examination for any one paper of mine???? I know such a circumstance wont arise but then in our university (BPUT) anything can happen any day. so asking

Dont worry to this extent!!! I m sure ur university wont spoil someone's career just for the heck of it!!!

As for the answer to ur query, well...I really don't know what will happen as we have not faced a case like this recently. However, you may beware that the admin would have every right, in this case, to scrap ur admission to XIMB. Whether it would choose to do so or not is, I suppose, a matter of speculation.

Can you just get this thing clarified from the admin ????

hey, if u r serious abt admision, u need to submit the amt, otherwise u r telling them u dont need the seat. plus if u dont get a confirmed seat, then entire amt will b refunded....
but if u do get one, n then decide not to take admission, then a retention fee will be deducted...

by the way puys, ne idea as to how much is the retention fee?

sumobom4 posted on teh other thread that the retention fee will be as per the AICTE norms..I guess it shud be 1k in that case..Must confirm from the insti though..

Hi Seniors,

I am confused on whether to join XIMB or not. I have some doubts. Would be great if you could clear them :

1. I heard its location is a disadvantage for the institute. Could you throw some light on how much difference does it make. Is the industry interaction impacted by this? What kind of companies offer summer internships in XIMB?

2. How are the summer internships and the placements going on in the current scenario? What kind of profiles are being offered to XIMB students by the companies?

3. I got a call from XLRI(BM) this time but could not convert. I think i have the potential to crack XLRI next year. Would it be a good idea to drop XIMB now and try for XLRI or the IIMs next year (I am presently working with an IT company)?

XAT Percentile: 98.03
Work Experience : 17 months (IT company)

Thanks and Regards,

@Saurabh

Although I am not a senior - still can help with a few of your queries...

1) There is nothing like location disadvantage with XIMB. Its been attracting industry same way as it has attracted you. Moreover being in the capital of one of the states where investment (leading to growth of industries) in the last 5 years has been remarkable...XIMB has an added advantage.

2)Regarding companies which come for summer internships - Seniors would be in a better position to comment on the summer internship & placement profiles (I feel its at par ...on similar lines per current industry trends - location Bhubaneswar has never been a deterrent for this)

3)Its ultimately your call whether you would be joining this year - or will have another go at XLRI/IIMs - with 17 mnths IT exprnc there is nothing to lose - but question here is having the motivation and the fire burning within for another shot at the ivy league instis.

P.S.: I am not a senior, rather an aspirant as you.
Sorry if you thought I am bugging

Hi seniors,

I know that it might be too early to ask this ques...still I wud like to know that wat's the minimum work exp. required to be elligible for lateral placements and can a person with work exp. in IT MNC can appear in lateral placement for Finance profile JOB...??

Hi...I will answer this here also for the benefit of the others. XIMB does not generally impose a work ex limit for laterals. It is entirely dependent upon the companies to lay down the eligibility criteria. Having said that, companies generally ask for 2 yrs of relevant work ex in order to consider a candidate as a lateral.

As for the IT MNC work ex being considered as relevant for a Fin company, it is highly unlikely unless you have actually worked in the finance dept of the IT MNC!!! 😃

First of all, thanks for asking XIMB-specific doubts only. I think binay has satisfactorily answered all ur doubts. As for the placement profiles in summers, u will have to wait for the official placecom release, which is due soon.

I have been working with an IT company for almost 2.5 yrs now. I plan to take up finace as a major in ximb. Now obviously if I join a core Fin company my work ex will be of no value but what kind of roles can i expect to get in an IT company with an mba in finance and 2.5 yrs of IT work ex?

Does anyone have any idea that last time till what was the last WL number to hace got confirmation call in the first list.

When does second WL comes out..i mean d we need to wait till the session starts.

My WL-75, and this is the one i am banking on.
