Hey guys...
We do have a gym in our hostel... par we harldy find a need for a workout... will b always occupied wid some or the other activity in n outside the classrooms...
Waise our campus itself is worth exploring during the nite.. isliye nite outs ka zyada role nahi hoga..
But for ur info gates r open 24 hrs.. u just need to take prior permission frm the warden to b out of the campus after 10 in the nite.
Regarding the orientation, it is one of the best time periods in IIFM, new ppl, new place, not much work, classes, new subjects, sports, long walks...
Lemme tell u guys, we still cherish our orientation days...
@ Indro.. Sid is known for raggin freshers... terror hai uska campus me..
@ Rohan.. kahan ho yaar?? no news frm ur side lately?? sab changa hai naa??
Hi seniors ...
Just wanted to ask abt the median salary (I am aware of the avg) ... also does the avg salary of 7.2 Lpa include the foreign placement ?
Lots of ppl going in for Dell Inspiron I see ... good for you ... Well I intend to stick with Compaq. Those in a quandary can look out for :-
Compaq Presario V3749AU [ Delhi Price ~ 33500]
AMD Turion 64 X2 TL 60 / 2 GHz / 1MB L2 / 1600 MHz FSB / 2 gig DDR2 RAM / 160 GB (5400RPM) / 8X DVDRW / 14.1" / 802.11 LAN / 3 USB 2.0 / 5 in 1 Card Reader / 56 Kbps / 10/100 LAN card / 6 cell / Bluetooth / Webcam / Vista Home Basic / NVIDEA GeForce Go 7150M GS with 287MB memory
Compaq C773TU [~35,800 Rs]
Has same features except :-
C2D T5550 / 1.83 GHz in place of AMD Turion 64 X2 TL 60 / 2 GHz
15.4" in place of 14.1"
DOS in place of Vista Home Basic
Also it has NO : Bluetooth / Polish finish / Graphics card
My take on lappies is clear ... the more sugar you add the sweeter it becomes. But at the end of the day the high end hardware are the ones that register the biggest fall in prices. Always buy the mid range hardware ... remember you will need it (officially) only for MS Word and Powerpoint. ... But ya dont buy the rock bottom stuff that will go obsolete before you reach Bhopal.
For details PM me .... Dont start a brand war however ... thnx

aptly put resol.v,
compaq and even Acer for that matter have wonderful configs to offer at a price band of 32k - 35k. folks all of u can check it out. i chose Dell coz i could customise it, and i wanted to have some applications which wanted more RAM. i was also advised to go in for Vista Business, such customised configs and all costed me a lil more...
the configs uve written in look pretty decent.
Dude can you share your background and your travel plans with all of us here.

@resol.v & indro - thanx for the extensive gyan on laptops, I hope the configs u guys shared is compatible with some of the software packages one will have to work with at IIFM, like SPSS, please only recommend those features that will support such packages.
People in a dilemma as to choice between IIFM and other mainstream instis, my advice is revisit your decision of applying to the insti in the first place, analyse the rationale, objectives etc, if it was one's willingness to go off the beaten track and explore new vistas, then ur choice is made!

hey , i too wanted to buy a lap.. but first of all i want to procure a loan , so do u have any idea of that .
PRAMOD765 Sayshey , i too wanted to buy a lap.. but first of all i want to procure a loan , so do u have any idea of that .
had enquired from the admissions office! guess some banks are invited during the orientation time to help us with loan procurements!!
@ Indro
thanx for the compliment dude!!! as u had pointed out earlier there are only shipra and bhopal express to choose from if one is travelling from cal and are currently sold out, so will look for tatkal, as for interest area, that would be development and marketing (a little diverse) but would like to go in with an open mind and see how things shape up! what abt you? I gathered youre with Infy now...
For loans u folks would do well to approach banks esp nationalised ones and start with the prelim paperwork since one we get there we may not have the time to put in place the same
I'd request the class of 2010 to voice your queries, concerns opinions et cetera. Together we can search for the truth!!!
