Lots of people hav been askin about the number of people in final merit list and waiting list. I found this in the SIBM Directors Message section:
We have called One Thousand Two Hundred (1,200) applicants for GEPI process in the ratio of 1:7
we have put up a list of 186 candidates on 21st February 2011 (of all categories)
plus a waiting list of 82 candidates (of all categories).
will miss those awesome hills of Pune... 😐
guyz dont worry about waitlist right now (i know you think its easy for me to say as am already here)....
there will be a helluva lot of movement post april as the other results will be declared...
dont forget that everyone called must have some calls or the other (iims etc)...
so they will back out....
plus xl,fms,mdi,spjain folks will also leave...
last year post april.... it was like flies on a windshield at night...
ppl dropped out with the flick of a button....
so ya wait for loads of action to happen...
that much i can promise you....
even those who aren't in the initial waitlist....
there might be a second also...as was in the case of last yr...
so be hopeful guyz...
it aint over till the fat lady sings...
all the best!!
cheers!!!
Any idea over what is the last waitlist this year?
Hi, Good that you replied to my querries. However I am not satisfied with the answers.
1) This is how we work. This cannot be an answer. The procedure has to be in line with the student perspective. The process only favours the institution and the student suffers losses. Pre induction starts in the month of May. So why if a student is cancelling his admission before May, it is non-refundable.
2) If a student has arranged Rs 375000 and paid to the institution and he then gets an admission to some better college, he has to cancel it. SIBM will take quite some time to return the money. Till that how the student will arrange the fees for the next college.
3) And how is it possible for the student to arrange Rs 375000 in a span of 14 days when he has to depend on loans..
We just follow this process.... cannot be an answer to this.... The logic behind the process has to be concrete and understandable and acceptable to everybody.
Got the call!
Had scored 123.75 in the test and had a fantastic GD and Case Study. The PI was too chilled out, just talked about my hobbies and Photography and F1. Had an amazing time at Lavale and the seniors including Shourya and Roopakshi were just too cool and helped out loads. My very first B-School interview and now very first convert. Happy! 😁
Hey congrats to all.
can anybody lend me their notes & study material?
I am badly in search of the same
Hi
Congrats to ALL PUYS who made it through in the first list. WLs, stay tuned. Movie abhi baaki hai.
And for people who are just borderline out of the WL (like Shourya and myself last year, we converted Mid-late May 2010. ) abhi toh puri SHOLAY baaki hai. ^_^
Keep an eye on the excel sheet of scores, converts and PUYs dropping out for other colleges etc. (Make a google spread sheet if you havent already)
Later.
P.S.: Those joining SIBM P will see more of me soon. The pre-induction material and knowledge portals await you. 😃 😛

dude there is no point in charging at me
am just tryin to help you....
this is not a student initiative and not even ART is responsible for it...
it is something that SYMBIOSIS management has adopted...
and about the early results and fees...
this is our college.... we dont need to wait for any IIM or "supposedly" better coll to bring out results before we can do the same...
this is not a propaganda against your batch as such...
we all have followed it.....
people have paid and cancelled and got refunded.....
the questions you ask are privy to ppl whom you will never find on such forums....
and if you feel you are the only person who thought of these queries then am sorry to say but get in line brother....
we as students are trying our best to help you guyz out as our seniors did for us....
if you dont appreciate then am
sorry you feel that way....
and about the fees submissions...
if you feel its not "ethical"...then plzz let some of your peers do it... they would be happy to be a part of our institution....
hope you understand it better now...
all the best!!
cheers!!!

take it easy bro.....
preinduction is just an online thing...
you will be sent material for your reference...
material which the coll feels is necessary for you to go through before you start your session here...
then you will be required to submit online assignments and take quizzes...
its all fun...
nothin that a working professional cant handle...
you can easily work till may and resign... no probs in that...
all the best!!
cheers!!!

did you check with sbi???
they have a sibm specific loan.... so they would understand the time crunch....
speak to them asap and keep them in the loop..
most probably you'll get in the 2nd/3rd list....
so keep all other docs ready...
when you get your call letter..you take it them to sanction the loan amount..
got through at 124.5
gd/pi was on 6th Feb 9:00 am slot
group id : 2XH
Will not be joining for sure. Anyone from my group getting through? Rishik?Jason? Varchas?
Overall, i would say the beautiful campus and the helpful seniors stood out for me as far as SIBM is concerned.
Cheers to Hemanth,Amit,Rishi and other seniors for making it such a memorable event!

REJECTED.....
First reject of the season, after getting 4 rejects last year...I am getting addicted to dese Rejects....:cheers:
Hi Puys,
this may sound silly but where exactly are they specifying the waitlist number..Is it in letter itself?..and further can we have detailed list along with our scores of gd/pi so that it can be known on the part on which improvement is needed and it can be known abut our relative position..

Thnks Sourya,
SIBM process was glitch free and you guys were a helpful lot. Thnks for all efforts and advices. Also, Good that you are trying to justify management's policies!
But few more doubts:
1. Why no cumulative scores this time? This would have helped WL, RJCT ppl
2. Why can't simple facts be put straight...
->Early admissions (and then subsequent cancellations) = easy money for college...after all it's business of business schools...as simple as that...or else why would one require 30K for sending couriers and providing online material?
->There are a lot of 'supposedly better' colleges than SIBM. Various rankings prove it. Why not accept d truth?
Expecting a few groans here. :splat:
Warm Regards,
Nikhil.

there is no point arguing over such things as its neither in Sourya or anyone else's hand about these policies.He may not have liked it himself when he was an aspirant.There are some things we have to accept though we may not like them (selection criteria of the IIM is an example)..

hi
1) yes its disappointing no score given
2) look if u say 30 k per student for some 50 odd extra rejections that makes it 15 lacs.
think about the turn over of these colleges and one wud realsie its a very small insignificant amount .
its totally unrequired for a college to change its whole cycle for such paltry reasons.
secondly when they provide pre induction module its understandable that it is a product and hence omes with a cost (albeit a very costly product).It is SIBM's intellectual property and they must have incurred some costs .
(personally i think 30 k is a steep amount) but cmon u will be investing 10 lac for gaining some value that will shape ur career in short and long run .
i also think a lil more then 14 days cud have been provided
about better colleges then sibm , see theres always something better then everything . but better or worse is a subjective term and using the term 'better college' is nt the right way to put it.

I also wish more time was provided to the candidates on the first shortlist. Even though I will try my butt off, it seems far fetched for me to assume I'll get so much money at such short notice.
And why such a huge installment at such a short notice? Id gladly pay for the material sibm provides and any other such things. But why charge three lakh forty thousand extra? Do they assume every student will have so much money at short notice? If I get admission somewhere better and sibm doesnt release this exorbidant amount in time Il again miss out?
I think I deserve to get a seat at sibm. Worked hard for it and got a convert. But just because I cannot manage such a huge amount in such a short period, sibm will deem me unworthy of the seat I worked hard for. Harsh truths of life. Its a business. And sibm is the ONLY bschool that makes lesser fortunate candidates like me suffer with early dates. I cant take a loan from any relative. I fend for myself. My ability to come up with money so soon, and not my calibre will finally decide my fate :[
A heartiest congratulation to all the converts of SIBM-P ........... we welcome you all .
For the waitlist/ Rejected guys dont loose hope real action starts in Mid-Apr- MAY to early of June. I was among the last few guys to enter the clg (only 10-11 ppl joined later). I was initally rejected bt got my confirmation on 19 June 2010.....and now sitting happily on 5th floor of SIBM campus................. so all you guys dont fret.
About the money in short duartion ....many bank including (SBI.... to my memory) provide SIBM-P specific loans under Scholar loan scheme ....so people can get their loan sanctioned pretty early...as ppl there will understand their emergency................ Last year ppl did the same thing.......So just keep your all documnet upadated...
So hope to see u all there in SIBM-P campus
CIA:D!!
