XLRI calls are out

Am really irritated ppl.... Overall %ile of 97.72, almost 99 in GA, 96 odd in verbal and 84 odd in QA.... of course I understand the need for cutoffs and stuff, but .....:razz:uppydog: Outta the running for XLRI and XIMB.

But hey, I'm not trying to run down ppl who've got calls from XLRI... congrats to all you guys, you deserve it truly:smile: ... good luck for the next round!!

Here's hoping I'm in a better mood next time....

And btw, I got a call for BM at an overall percentile of 99.2 with 98.35 in QA, 97.35 in VA and 87.1in GA.

Also, I wonder why they have not mentioned an interview in the result? What do they mean by admission offer? Now, you dont call being shortlisted being given an admission offer, do you? But i am sure there has to be an interview . And whats the waiting list for? :huh: :huh: :huh:

Aarav Says
Wow! can you elaborate on this?

first of all, XL put all of us under tremendous pressure and panic with their new definition of percentile.
then they made us feel at much ease with all the corrections.........

in the end they dd gave a shock to those who, despite havng gud %tiles cud not get a call.

And some of them r now showing their frustration..........

I CAN SURELY BET THT THEY DEFINITELY GAVE THE CALLS TO THE PGites AFTER READING 1400+ POST OF THE MEMBERS.....HOWZZZZZZAT!!
any thoughts on this
va 99.8
ga 99.52
qa 94.07
overall 99.87

1.5 yrs wrk ex...gud acads and the usual.
I'm surprised.
guess I can only laugh over it ...

cheers

Hey junta,

Congrats to all those who made it to the XL interview stage. You guys can shoot ur questions(in the xquizzette thread) n we'll try to reply asap.

N those who dint make it this yr., trust me its just a matter of those two hours. This in no way speaks abt ur potential.

Cheers

Have read somewhr on pg itself that a person with really gr8 scores in xat wasnt shortlisted but after a call for clarification to xl, did get a call. Now I`m sure I have read this somewhere. Personally I would`ve felt wronged by this score not deserving a call unless I call them personally.
I dont know if it helps at all.. but I feel you should try it.. after all just a call,u never know

cheers,
flber


thanks flber...
if you've read something like this, I'm surely making a call to xlri tomorrow.
I hope I or someone else has a similar story to narrate next year...
may God be with me. amen!

Oh really! then I shouldn't appear for the interview at all.

What you have written above is a bigger crap than my XL essay.
i m not offending any1 bt i found out tht:
sm ppl cant cant handle stress and surprises, thts y XL ddnt call them

and rajsher,
he has given the scores, and how do u interpret the stress handling abilities frm that, eh ? dude, he's already in a bad mood, y just worsen it ? pls try to understand the feelings of ppl who cannot make it (even after scoring highly, sometimes) ! salt is a fine thing, but never on wounds, ok..
plssss.........

i think it can be safely assumed that they are definitely looking for a QA cutoff of 95 even for PMIR which is really really surprising
XL PMIR has always been mainly a VA thing... a friend of mine gave XAT last yr and got thru with a QA of 80
anyway in a year of surprises....... 😃

u can hope to c a lot of tht CRAP frm me as long as i belong to PG .
Seriously, i can say that there is certainly a cncpt of upper cutoff.
e.g. ppl wid 90+ in all three and 98+ , and having MORE than 2 years of work ex wid graduation NOT frm a top college- r nt called for intrview!!!!!
Hey didnt get the call :x , applied to BM
Cant believe it...

Va : 93.smthng
QA : 93.sthng
Ga : 82.smthng
Overall : 96.21

30 months of work ex, Decent Acads , from IIT.. doesnt make any sense when ppl are saying that 75%le is getting U the call.

Can anbdy explain....

The only explanation for their anamolous selection process....They have written all our numbers on papers, put them in some box..and taken lots.
I know im writing out of the deep anguish for not making it with a 98.51 percentile....but what do these guys expect out of us?

Then why the hell the exam and what does it measure if not our potential....if their tests consistently cant measure our actual potential as they regretingly admit....then theyd better consider CAT scores instead of wasting our time and money over another exam.....anguish...!

dd u c tht aarav, shock n surprises cause anger and loss of rational thinking.

If that's personal, then let me remind you that I have XL call.
But people who I feel deserved better than I don't have.
And your reasoning is bullshit.

Spaceman Spiff:

Dude..what can I say...ur plight puts a lot of ppl in place..Call them and chk out wtf is going on! You really deserved XLRI. Try for Harvard :huh: !

What are XL guys doing?:shock:
Dude, are you sure you'd put the correct roll number before?

Is this a management teaching institute?

i got a call with my oa 99.46

qa-99.9
va-90.05
ga-77.13

am surprised that people with higher scores didnt make it

for those of us who didn't make it today, remember this, sad it is to live your whole life without ever having a dream, a hope, a goal. sadder still is to have a goal, but never achieve it. but saddest of all is to have a goal, achieve it, and then have nothing to do.

John Steinbeck said it this way: "In the dark the other night I wrote in my head a whole dialogue between St. George and the Dragon. Very close relatives those two. They are eternally tied together - actually two parts of one whole... So St. George must always kill the dragon and it must be repeated because if the dragon were finally killed, there would be no St. George - only a lonely man looking for something to do."

My recommendation to all the high scorers who didn't make it.
The first time I loaded the site of the XXLRI calls, it said I haven't got a call.

Within 5 minutes I checked again and it said Congrats.

So knowing the kind of crap thats been done by XLRI, I would serisouly recommend you guys double-check your call status.

I am not trying to raise any unnecessary hope of anybody.
But I want to tell you my case. 5 minutes is all it took to chnage my status from Sorry to Congratulations!!!
