The shortlisting done by IIMB this year has been really bizarre..guys with almost equal academic performances have had varying results..enggs with 99.9+ are getting rejected but CA guys with 98.8 are getting accepted.I think bangalore is trying to bring diversity into it's batch
@s1r2 yes. God knows how I have passed the day today. I was so sure of B's call. I thought my 70 in grad was enough considering its a BA course (DU). And in Xth I had 95 and XIIth 91.6 Its just so sad. Even if I give it again next year, doesn't matter.
@ayachi Guys, each one of you will soon be assigned one mentor. He/she would be from my batch and will guide you on the application and WAT-PI preparation. As of now, start reading newspapers, practise essay writing and mock interviews. All the Best :)
Admission team can you please clarify these queries:
1. Three referees email id is asked for what reasons? Are the reference letters not to be produced during interview and it has to be produced only by mail?. Should the referees type and send their reference details by mail? 2. Do we want to get the hard copy of reference letters?
1.Am from a PSU. Here i cant get the reference directly from any boss, as the HR persons are the only persons eligible to give us such things. How to deal this?.
2. Should we give official email ids of referrals?
Dunno what to tell ppl with 99+ not getting calls. Really feel sad for all the guys out there.

@abhi.iimb - By when do we get the mentors assigned? What exactly is the process next? GD/PI/WAT? What is asked on the D-day. Sorry for being so dumb. Had no hopes on IIM's this year and had given up. Applied through GMAT to US schools.
Had given CAT just like a second thought.. Glad to have got B and S. Will have to do so many interviews now..
Can anyone help me with this. I am a Chartered Accountant and currently I am working for Ernst & Young Pvt Ltd. However, I had actually joined S.R. Batliboi (CA firm of EY) and later on I was transferred to Ernst & Young due to internal policies. Now should i show this as a Job/Organisation change?
I didn't even know you had to write an SOP! Anyone has the link to the guidelines for filling the application form? The link they sent in the email is wrong.
@nandhawillcrack There is no Admissions Team here. We do it voluntarily by taking time off our endless submissions, quizzes and projects, apart from classes. Same thing happened last year when some of our seniors took the initiative to help us out. And our expectation is that some of you will carry forward this tradition next year :)
@nandhawillcrack everything is online here. No hardcopies needed.
Evaluators will type in their comments about you in a separate online form available with them. You will need to specify their email id and a link and login credentials will be emailed to them for that purpose. That is how the process was last year.
