Hi,
I understand that we can send more than 2 recommendation requests while only two of them need to submit.
What will happen if more than two of them submits recommendations? Which two will be considered or all of them will be considered?
Hi, I am having a problem with respect to graduation details. I am in final year right now and in the form it is written in instructions that I have to submit 'Final Year Student Certificate along with the latest Transcripts'. The problem is right now I only have semester wise grade sheets and consolidated transcript might take more time than deadline. Can I just upload my grade sheets along with required certificate and produce consolidated transcript at the time of interview ? Please guide me through this issue. Thank you.
One of my referee is having troubles accessing the link sent to him. He has tried it in different browsers and is facing the same issue. Is it temporary condition or is there something I need to do?
Hi, I would be glad if someone could help me with these two queries:
1. I am a fresher candidate and while filling the CAT 2018 forms, I had undergraduate results only up to the 6th semester. Now that I have my last semester's, i.e. 7th semester's, results, is there some way I could include those results in the IIMB PI/WAT forms? My transcript has results till 7th semester. In case this will not be possible, should I upload a pdf which would contain the individual semester marksheets till 6th semester?
2. Will I be notified in some way when my refree submits the reference forms?
General Tip:
Do not wait to submit your application at the eleventh hour. Submit it a night before. You never know what may go wrong at the last moment. Plan accordingly :)
How much time it usually takes for the refrence link to reach the concerned person after adding it in the from?
1. How IIM banglore decided its cutoff this year? Have they considered previous acads also for giving call or purely on CAT %ile?
2.What might be the cutoff for PWD candidates this year?
P.S. :-
I am having 85% in both X and XII and in B.Tech I had 72%. with experience of 50 months. Still no call in PWD category
Can i take a reference from the manager who no loner works in the organisation? Is it allowed and whether it is OK to have such a refrence?
The central govt notice says 25% additional seats to be added from this academic year in all IITs,IIMs and Govt. institutions. Union HRD Minister has given a press conference regarding the same. Are the IIMs bound to follow the order even if the shortlists are released?
General Update:
Mentor allocation in progress. Please use this opportunity nicely. Keep your questions ready.
I shall update once the mails have been sent. Expect them by Friday EoD.
In our CBSE school results & graduation marksheet there is no where mentioned any class or distinction like first class, distinction ,second class. Can I enter not applicable in that section while filling form.
I have 2.5 years of experiance, whom should I ask for referrence ?
should I ask my managers or college professors ?
Is there any template or draft for referrence to IIM B ?
Are there any other groups on other platforms that I can join for IIM B queries?
There is a factor about weighed work experience in final selection. On what basis is the weightage given?? Quality of work or brand of the organization or work relevant to your MBA future specialization. Seniors please provide some insight.
Is the 600 word limit for SOP a hard limit. After much effort, I'm only able to bring it down to 700. Would there be negative marking for exceeding word limit?
How much time does it take for the referral mails to go to referee?
My referee got 1 mail having password, but no link to open referral page..
Do we get to know when a referee has submitted their referral? My referee says she has submitted it, but I got no confirmation mail yet. Does it take few hours to reflect?
Hi,
Does anyone have sample SOPs for reference?
Some general guidelines to make a good SOP would also be very helpful.
