Me too waitlisted. Bit of a relief. 😃

I think the waiting list is about 70-75 strong, unless they have sent more than one email set. Unfortunately IIFT has not given any rank on the list - I don't think more than 40 will be finally cleared.

Can we have a poll of wait-listed candidates about whether they plan to take up some other institute (or have IIM GD calls) or if IIFT their best option?

i got the mail too. and now i have a biiiiiiiig dilemma.
of course not yet, coz we dun know if the people who have calls will choose to opt in.
i have a confirmed call from nitie. and don't know what to do. someone please tell me which parameters i have to look into if i have to chose an insti.
i know a few. please add on.
alumni, course content, pedagogy, infra, industrial interaction, student/faculty exchange, extra curriculars, mentorship program, placements, summer internship, location. if there is any other parameter, do let me know.
and if you have any comments on these parameters, or a link that explains it, then again.
I will be ..... highly obliged.

Hi,

I havent got the mail yet but saw my name among the people who have been waitlisted.. are they giving a waitlist number or are they just sayin tht u r waitlisted?

they have not given the numbers in the mail, it only says you are waitlisted, selection subject to availability of seats after 29th april. by the way u need to send a dd of 5000 bucks by 29th april to be considered in the wait list. and reply to their email as well

i got the email, mate.
but i did not get the speed post. wonder why.
did they send the email by mistake? i hear they have disclosed the waiting list rank in the letter. can't wait to lay my hands on the letter.

my name niether figures in the list nor have i received an email...well then curtains 4 me at iift....well sum guys have all the luck n sum guys all the pain(havent converted mdi, fms, xlri-bm,iift, iitb, Nitie )

I just received the letter. There is a label stuck on it which has my name and address and also the number '70'. I guess that is the WL number.

With a WL no. of 70 (out of 75 waitlisted), I don't think I have much of a chance.:(

Still, hoping for the best...:)

man!!!!!
the calls you got. please, don't get disheartened. see, not everyone can get the kind of calls you have. so you've got your strengths. time to take stock of your weaknesses and file a PIL against the Gods.
Probably you should start a new thread and discuss what you could have done to convert all your calls. What are your plans anyway? I hope getting disheartened is not in the to do list.



I got the letter today. it says 30. is it the waiting list rank?

hi cat_a_moron,

plz don't get disheartened..me too had XLRI, MDI, IIT-D,B but couldn't convert NONE and what's more didn't even make it to the waitlists..but i have no regrets as mayb i'm not suited to doing an mba this yr..else these rejects doesn't make ne sense..mayb i don't have the skills which they need..after spending an yr or 2 at the job(currently a fresher) i hope gain in some confidence and knowledge(yes, i need that, in XL and IIT-B pi they destroyed me)..and then i'll give another shot..things can only become better from here..

i hope u have a job..a guy with so many calls ought to deserve 1..so in my opinion u should go for a job and do it sincerely..it will help u to improve ur personality..give u knowledge which will help u with the gds and pis among other things(at least u can then divert ur conversation to ur work ex then)..and as it is mba is meant for ppl with work ex..u can better relate to what they teach..see, u'll be in a better position to score well during MBA exams..u know what u're studying else u again start with all that ratafication which frankly speaking i, at least am fed up of(doing that all my life, need to do sumthing constructive now)..u'll be eligible for laterals..

Believe me..2 yrs down the line if u do an mba u'll be a much happier person(and a well paid 1 too)..

Stay Good,
Megawhiz

PS: my post is not an insult to those who r going to do an MBA w/o workex..it's just that u guys r more developed(in terms of knowledge and personality) and better suited to do an MBA right now..which is gr8..best of luck..

Hello,

It seems to me from personal view point that serial no. given on top of ur address slip is the wait list no. coz I think that insti would prefer to give admission to people as per there ranking when it comes to waitlist rather than giving admission to everyone

The benefit of the process is that in case seats are left for admission; the insti can strtway contact PPL who are interested rather than delaying it by sending offers to PPL who aren't interested

HOWEVER, your name figuring in waitlist isn't gaurantee of your admsiion its hope that when your turn comes . there is still a seat remaining vacant.....
Cheers
