Dear Malar,
This letter comes from the official Public Relations Committee of BIM, Trichy, which is wholly managed by students of BIM. The discussion forum started by us was purely for the purpose of clarifying doubts and answering queries of the MBA aspirants wishing to apply to our B school. Being one of the premier business schools of our country, and having a reputation of standing for strong ethics and values in management education for the last 21 years, we do not have any necessity to take up such a cheap PR action on your website.
About the issue of we being termed as spammers, we have come to know that Rajz, ajoykumarp are ids of one of our students who has posted the messages in the forum purely in the interest of the institution. We take full responsibility for the above mentioned actions and assure you that we will make sure our students do not repeat the same. However, the facts provided in both the messages are 100% true and we affirm that.
Our objective to provide genuine information about the institute remains unaltered.We welcome any enquiries or further clarifications. This mail has also been sent to the pagalguy moderators.
Thanking you,
Yours sincerely,
Malarvizhi Kasi

I'm glad you actually decided to tackle the issue heads on and take responsibility for the actions of the BIM students. I hope all of you realize we dont have anything against the institute or the student, but if we notice ANY attempt to mislead, we WILL inform the forum readers. I've highlighted in the bold the irony in your message based on the current situation, but yes, its not fair that one daft nitwit of a student ruins the reputation of an institute. The thread title has been modified accordingly.
Happy Posting
hey guys,
why label the whole thread as some spamming thread. if the mods know that something is wrong, why not censor those messages, instead of tarnishing the image of good institutes. the same happened with IIIT,bangalore. Even i also went on rampage critisizing the spammers then. but iiit,b turned out to be good institute. Well, the mods are doing a great job. But, I think it is also ur responsibility to see that good institutes do not get bad mouthed because of 2/3 bad students of the institute. And because it becomes ever so important due to the huge number of mba aspirants and so few good institutes. And its time to remove the name of this thread as 'spammers' and delete those messages of some of those idiots from bim. anyways thats my take.......
Spam is spam and misleading is misleading. More so when the students post from within their institutes. Such stupid acts of trying to mislead the folks and using the forum as an aveneue is NOT something we will allow :)
That said, the thread title was modified a while ago - read my prev. post. If there is anything we come across as misrepresentation, I'd rather put it up front so that other career decisions are not made on the basis of the info put up as such.
One guys stupidity should be the base for the career decisions of others. That said, we are a open community - come up with a plausible reason and we'll work with the person in question. 😃

Nice to see you own up for those people and come into the open.....Like pagalguy has already mentioned, none of us here have anything against BIM, or for that matter, any other institute...The fact that this is a knowledge-sharing and info-sharing forum implies that an inherent responsibility also exists on each member that they give their views along with their affiliations so that other members know of the veracity of the source........The admin and the mods only try to make sure that this veracity is not put in doubt.....
Hope to see you people contributing actively henceforth.... 😃
Cheers
ps: am editing my warning on opening post too 😃
Did anyone else also recieve an email from BIM today with the subject heading " Kind Attention XAT Applicants".
Guys I had not applied to BIM, then how on earth did they get my mail ID. I smell some xl curry here
FYI, the email was about how gud BIM is and why I shd consider applying to it.
hey, as far as BIM goes , an institute of such repute need not be subject to something like this. I surely am impressed by BIM not only as an institute but also as a place to nurture ur Quest for knowledge and success. I had even applied to BIM just 2 days after their advertisements came out 'months' ago.
But what I am not sure of is wether i would get a call or not as I have secured only 75.67%ille(new) in XAT and belong to SC category.som1 plzz help me out. 😃
i have not got that decent percentile in xat it is only 47.02% !
i was thinking of applying to bim!
i have so many queries ! can u clear it from some bim student!
hows the placement! 8000k is pathetic (if thats true)
if i have not entered bim name when filling out for xat can i apply later
there site has soo many discrepancies!
can u mods clarify it for me !
am making my decision on ur conclusion!
dude... 8000k = 80,00,000...80 lakh per month :D
check out what u type! 8k=8000 rs.. i scrolled directly to the
last page and was stunned that somebody was going waanhh
abt how bad 8000k was :)
cheers
hi guys is anyone from bombay applying to bim ? even the gd pi is gonna be held at madras or trichy .Dont know if the college is that good , but ims has rated it highly .

dear malarvizhi,
v appreciate ur move and intentions.
since pr is a very important thing, it is in the gud interests of BIM to ensure that such ppl with crooked ideas r not finding a place in the pr committee. if that person/persons cant understand the basic fact that, ppl r more influenced by an 'insider' opinion rather than an 'outsider' guess works, he/she's never deserving a post in pr committee, in my opinion. as u came up with such a clarification, v hope that (even tho it is NOT OBVIOUS), all the off the road driving was done by a/some person/s, and and it was NOT a policy decision frm BIM pr comm. even tho ur msg itself is slightly contradicting, as pg has already put it, there was no better way around.
in order to underline ur credibility, may i suggest u to post ur official id.
also, if all those spammer/s has/ve any remorse, let'm come up with their own offcial id's, so that their institute image is not tarnished for their activities.
hey rajz, ajoy and others, v perfectly understand that its humane to err. but as a manager/s in making, it cant b beneficial if u cant indentify and accept ur faults. things r worse, if u cant take up the responsiblity of ur own actions, and is evading the same by sacrificing the insti/org u r associated with. v hope that u too've a steely backbone like Malarvizhi, but its ur duty to prove.
however, malarvizhi, cheers mate. keep the gud work going.
regds,
Rick.

I should think u stand a fair (read good) chance. I talked to my friend there, tells me its not a bad college -- recommended it. anyway i'm not applying
all the best
hi i am new out here.i have a 87.74 percentile in xat(new percentile) my sectional are
quant- 74
general awareness-89
verbal and logic-88
i have filled in gim and bim
what chance do i have ?
hey a loads of discussion here.its good to see guys coming out to save their insti's reputation.anyways no need to say that BIM is a good insti.
guys can u help me? I got 82 % ile in XAT(new one).I havent applied for BIM and LIBA yet. with this much of % ile should I apply for BIM?wht r the chances in LIBA.and is LIBA good enough (like BIM and GIM).plz guys reply immediately ..as I have to fill up this form as early as possible.
i know one thing LIBA is no BIM or GIM...while im not too sure about the other queries myself...somebody BIM cutoffs plz!
luk, BIM is way ahead, and it has absolutely no comparison with LIBA. LIBA is an 'OK kinda insti', some gud placements and trying to get into the big league. by the time u r out (if u enrol urself this yr) it cld b improved, but definitely well behind BIM.
no matter what's there up in this thread, BIM is still one of the best insti's. it does 've the potential for sure. the cons of BIM r its remote location, absense of night life (somebody said earlier in this thread that it has drastically improved, refer them) and its BHEL dependency. (some add to that, a high south Indian population, especially Tamils. but BIM site is claiming a high cross cultural environ. i myself a south Indian, and 've absolutely no intention to hurt my beloved Tamil frens. i love Tamil and Tamizhans. just trying to present the exact image of BIM as it is pervading in this part). in placements its comparable to any gud insti (leave alone the top10), so is its infrastructure, faculty and the rest. but i can tell u this, Trichy is really a dull place. but, may b inside BIM things r better.
(you're hereby WARNED abt the possible outdatedness of the following data provided)
and GIM ............... dunno mate, to b exact. some say, it is as gud as BIM. some say just Jesuit tag, nothing else. their site say nothing specific abt the placements. location is gud, obviously. i'ld like to share my personal experience:- while following a funny email fwd, i ended up in one of the yahoo grps of 'then GIM'ites'. i can tell u this, they were utterly dissatisfied abt their insti, their faculties and in particular 'their placement cell operations'. its somewhat two yrs back. i did raise some qns there, but i was kicked out as i was not a GIM'ite. then it was an open membership grp, and while writing this i just searched for that grp, but unfortunately cldn't find it. the situation might've been changed a lot, i hope. but still remember their comparisons with some b'lore b-schools (all of them b grade), they were really desp abt their own placement cell. but considering the Jesuit links, it wont b a big issue to improve the situation. just a new placement cell cordinator can do the magic. i'm absolutely unaware of the current status, but then (two yrs back, and just the members of that yahoo grp, how can i know abt the rest of it ?!) junta was very much cursing their fate.
i urge all GIM'ites to come up and to enlighten us abt the current status of the insti. especially abt the placement stati ...
Note: any further clarifications r wholeheartedly accepted. what all said above is my view point on the above insti's as per my current information. any lack of knowledge may definitely b pointed out. and they r always welcome :)
regds,
Rick.

regds,

Thanx rxn for ur expainatory advice.but I m still confused whether this much of %ile(82) is good enough o bring a call from BIM?as of now no one has discussed the possible cutoffs.so BIM junta plz throw light on it.I know its not possible to predict the exact cutoff but guys from BIM can atleast predict the cutoff range(say +/- 3%ile) I hope.so waiting for replies.
Hello Friends,
We can not comment on the likely cut off for BIM.It is purely decided by the management.Moreover, it is the first time that BIM is taking scores from XAT,so can not give you any past year cut-offs as well.
Even if you have not applied for BIM in the XAT form,you may still apply to BIM with your XAT ID.Last date for receipt of filled in Application forms including Online Registration has been extended to 28th February 2005.For more information visit www.bim.edu.
Best of Luck
This is to answer to queries regarding the XAT takers and who have not opted to report the scores to BIM.
The procedure is, You can still fill in the application forms for BIM Admissions, either hard copy or online, WITH YOUR XAT IDs. Our institute will get the XAT scores themselves. So, no problem with apllying to BIM with not reporting on XAT.
And, the last date for submission of filled in application forms has been extended to 2oth February 2005.
