As I mentioned in this thread before, the IIMB Academic Council has started the process of mentor allocation. Last year we received individual emails with contact details of our mentors. I heard that that same thing is being followed this year as well. It will take few more days for you to know your WAT/PI mentor.

@sandeep5510 Get in touch with the Admissions Office for any referral related issues.

@abhi.iimb and others:

Now that the forms are submitted and that we have our interview schedules, when can we expect mentors allocation happen?

PS: 100th post on PG.. I know its irrelevant.

@Visweswarareddy: Will happen in a couple of days.

Hi,


I have my interview scheduled on 20th of March but I have my exams on the same day. I have been sending mails to the admissions office regarding a change of date. A few days back I received a mail from the admissions office saying that they would get my interview rescheduled in case there are free slots and would get back to me. But I have not heard back from them. Can someone let me know as to when would I get my rescheduled interview details.

Hi,


Can someone from the seniors respond to my query above?

This is probably the worst time to be a guy and an engineer at the same time.

@SwatyCat

10 minutes to think, 20 minutes to write the essay. Please go through this thread to get some sample WAT topics that came up last year:

Also as I have repeatedly mentioned in this thread, refer to previous years' WAT/PI threads as well. Hope that helps.

Best of luck to all of you :)

@Visweswarareddy It's taking a little longer this year as the plan is to cover nearly 1400 applicants for the first time.

@VICKOO.25 Hello sir ji, i am just fighting with a cat overall of 84, although ma acads are better tan you.
You have a great chance.
i believe in this..."never yield to the overwhelming strength of others". so if one believe in oneself, he is sure to rock.. leave the rest. When in OBC i am hopeful with just overall 84, then i don think u should fear... best wishes
