Hi...thanks mkinra and prashanth for your immediate resonse.... i was going through the site..the programs section... prashanth can u tell me something about the finance speacialization at glim since im more keen on that....also wat is the Entrepreneurial Economics elective about???
mkira....the next interview date as on the site is in march in mumbai...so i guess ive some time...i tried to login to see the admission requirements but it requires me to pay immediately...can you tell how many essays and recos do they require and what kind of essays are asked??is it like ISB??
About the Essays....there were 5 essays that yu need to write..as i havent applied to ISB , so i have no idea abt there similarity with ISB ...
Recos..that yu need not worry cos yur refree got to fill the same..But all in all its time consuming..and for me it tuk arund 15 days to get the form completed.
some of my college freinds in tcs will apply in 2 nd phase... rest assured some more in Cognizant... Does nyone have an idea abt no. of applicants in first phase & no. of selected??
I mite be wrong..abt the no.of applicant who applied..forgot...but i think it was some where close to 300 (excluding Kolkotta)..and selections were 48(again excluding Kol)..
But people usually apply in 2nd phase as most who apply in 1st phase arent sitting for other exams.
Nice Name ...Please refer to www.glakes.org for the admission dates and all.
All the best and feel free to ask any queries.

References need not be directly mailed by the refrees. The applicant also can get it in a sealed envelope and mail it across along with the filled in application form.

Besides about applying for 2nd time in round two, I am realy sorry i have no idea abt the same..I hope some of the Present Lot of Great Lakers would answer about this soon.

I would suggest to call the Great Lakes Authorities and ask them if you can apply again, i am sure if you are so interested in joining and are confident of making; 900 INR should never be a issue.

Great Lakes follows a process wherein just scores in CAT, or GMAT are not the only criteria for admission. So almost every applicant is considered for GD/PI and once all the stages are completed he or she is evaluated for admission.
Considering your CAT score and Work Ex which wud be around 2 years by the time you join Great Lakes; I feel you stand a good chance you leave an impact in the Evaluation Process if you perform well in Essays/Reference/Gd/PI.
