If you don't have the final transcript, your individual semester mark sheets should do.

Seniors! For the work experience part. I have a screen shot of my employee details from company site. It has a Employee hiring date. But there is no seal or any sign on it. Will that and my last pay sli suffice for work ex?

@abhi.iimb Thanks Abhisek.

Others, has anyone been able to add education record beyond Undergrad? CAs? CFAs? people with MS? If not, have you heard from admissions office on how to go about it?

Can we give 4 references??

@KonarkPanday Don't worry. It will reach you in time. Last year it came via DTDC.
@jagatjain & others This has been reiterated by all the senior puys from IIM B here that- getting the reference from a family member defeats the purpose of asking for a reference. You should get them from School teachers, principal, profs, seniors from workplace.
@elflord

Hi,

Scanned marksheets and degree in a consolidated single file is going way above 1 MB. Also, compressing needs to be done using a third party tool. and after compressing , the logo of third party tool appears on the PDF file.

Please suggest a way to limit the size to 1 MB. Will the black and white Scans work??

Thanks

I work in the analytics/consulting domain(senior business analyst). What 'Industry Type' should I select? Should it be:
a. Services, Competitiveness
OR b. Services, Knowledge Management
OR c. Services, micro,medium and small scale industry
OR d. Others
@Asadali scan the marksheets as jpeg files, and then convert them to PDF at www.pdfonline.com/convert-pdf/
You can then merge the multiple PDF files at www.pdfjoin.com/
This kept it at less than 1MB.
Hope it helps.

Hi Senior,

My salary slips are password protected. Should I still upload? Is there any other way I can go about it ?

How do I upload my salary slips. They are password protected by the company.
