Queries Related To SIMS, Pune

hi dj kaurwell i can understand ur confusion. well dear i also have a choice between imt-hr, imi-hr, tapmi(hope-fully) siib and many more.. but see te thing is that i have given 8 interviews and i have not fould the kind of rocking people as i did in sims and siib. moreover brand name sells and i think that symbiosis has a better brand name. moreover aicte approval will give mba against pgdm of nirma . sims is going to be amulgamated with deemed society.these are positive. its important decision to select the college so make a research and then take a decision.well i am going to sims on 26 to deposit the fee and also look at the institake caresachan

Hey everyone!
Congrats to everyone who made it 2 better Institutes.We will miss u.:(

had been to SIMS today.They gave me a receipt for the D.D.
And we don't need to show the marklists & stuff now.

@ Girls,the lady at the office told me that girls have to wear only sarees for
the first 15 days!!!(But why SENIORS?)
Later it would be salwar kameezs but no jeans!
when I asked her about the trousers & suits mentioned in the letter, she did not seem to have much knowledge about it .Still not satisfied with her answers.
Girls on the campus were seen wearing trouser-shirts & salwar kameezs.

Seniors do throw some light on the dress issue .I did read ur previous posts but u have mentioned only about sarees there. Plz one more time so that we all benefit.
Seniors plz read this & reply.:angel:

Hey Sahil,
please don't take it the other way but don't you think its a lil late to have realised that SIMS doesn't have DUAL course anymore specially when you applied to the instt cz of that plus you gave up a few other instt for that......No offence but just want to say that in important matters like these please be very careful and do your spade work properly cause its your career at stake.........Its ok if you didn't have the prospectus,you could have seen the website........
Ok now for your query....If you would go back and read the previous posts I believe that I have already addressed the issue but anyways I'll do it again,for the benefit of you and other poeple like you who are new to the thread......
Starting from this year the divisions for the various specialisations won't be made at the time of admission...plus the course has been made into a General Management one.....What happens now is that you get to choose the specialisations after the First Semester and as they have limited and alloted seats to every specialisation,it is strictly on the basis of your performance in the first semester.......You can choose any two specialisations as well ,one as your major and the other as a minor...that is a DUAL course.....But the imp thing again is that you have to do well in the first sem cause otherwise you might just land up with a specialisation that you dnt have interst in and at that juncture it will be too late to leave the instt and try again.........
Now why I personally think that this has been done is because SIMS had started a lot of other specialisations or courses (whatever you might call it) in addtion to your usual Marketing,Finance,Sysytems and HR...they have International Business,Telecom and IT and a few more details of which are mentioned in the prospectus as well as the website.Now, I think,not many people used to apply to these courses at SIMS cause if you wanna go in for IB you might as well try IIFT or SIIB,same with Telecom and It ....SITM....so they used to have vacant seats or maybe a lil incompetant people joing SIMS....so in order to negate that they have started the General management funda...cz smbdy will get these sepcialisations no matter what and like I said before at that time it will be too late to back out..............Though this is the reason that I have been able to figure out.....but again no complains with SIMS.....its a rocking instt and no matter which specialisation you do you will get a great career.....................
Sahil I hope that answers your query.....and ya one request dude...in your spare time try to go through as many posts on this thread as possible....you will really get to know a lot..............

Hey Akshay,
No offence dude but if im not wrong da earlier dual ws also based on da major minor thingie wherin u cud opt for 2 courses.
so dis essentially answers my question.
As regards 2 my not doin ny spade work dude i think evrybody shall agree tht there ws no mention of dis during our GD/PI n dis ws revealed 2 us only wen v got da prospectus n in my case tht ws jus a few days bk.So...........
Moreover even d seniors were not aware of it till a lil while ago.
Ull b surprised 2 knw tht i raised dis question during d GD/PI....n guess wat ws da answer.....
I Quote
" specializations shall b awrded according 2:
Preference
Ist sem results
Snap score
D dual prog. vry much exists n there r no plans of discontinuing it in d near future" Unqoute

So buddy i hope nw u cn understand d reasons for my fears n bein flummoxed upon readin da prospectus!!!!
Nywayz ppl Dual or no dual SIMS it is.........!!!
Coz SIMS Rocks!!!!
Nyhow thx a ton bro u've finally made me REST IN PEACE!!!!!!:satisfie:
Ciao
Sahil

Hey Sahil n hi everyone...

Err... I m new here. :neutral:
thot i'll join this thread as I too went for the sims gdpi this year.
Sahil... If you find out about the dual thingey... do let me know. I too am damn confused.
And is everyone done with the admission n fees payment?? I still have to go n get it done. Am waiting to recieve my migration certificate. So will be going to pay the fees in a day or so.

Anyway... bye for now.
Btw... am really feeling like a donkey for not registering here earlier!! ??:

And one more thing guys... as i said earlier.. will be going to sims in a day or so. If anyone wants to get some querries cleared by the college itself, let me know. I'll try and find out when I am there. πŸ˜ƒ

Btw... my joining date is 2nd july... but tell me something.. they have written that commencement of new session is from 16th June, and semester 1 begins from 1st July. what do they mean by this???

AGAIN I REQUEST ALL THE PEOPLE WHO HAVE JOINED THE THREAD IN THE PAST FEW DAYS TO KINDLY READ THE PREVIOUS POSTS AS WE HAVE ALREADY DISCUSSED AND HAVE GIVEN OUT INFORMATION ABOUT ALL THE ISSUES THAT A PERSON MIGHT HAVE RIGHT NOW ABOUT THE INSTITUTE,THE PLACEMENTS,THE INFRASTRUCTURE,WHAT ALL DO YOU REQUIRE AND THE DATE OF JOINING ETC.......SO YOU WOULD REALLY BE HELPING YOURSELF AND THE THREAD BY GOING THROUGH AS MANY PREVIOUS POSTS AS YOU CAN(I KNOW THEY ARE A LOT,BUT THEN THEY CONTAIN EVERY POSSIBLE THING THAT YOU MIGHT HAVE A QUERY ABOUT AND ALSO SOMETHING THAT MIGHT HAVE NEVER CROSSED YOUR MIND)....AND IT WOULD ALSO HELP TO HAVE REDUNDANT QUESTIONS ON THE THREAD........................

@Tirbha......your query is also been answered to and discussed in the last few pages of the thread so kindly go through them.....but in your benefit I'd just briefly tel you that...when the timetable was made at SIMS,the date of joining was of crse planned to be 16th June as mentioned on the website....however,its been postponed to the 1st and the 2nd of july....that too has been mentioned....the reason for it is unknown but we believe that its cz the seniors will be still on with their summers............
Again....do kindly go through the previous posts..............

@Sahil....Hey buddy,hope that you are now relaxed and waiting like the rest of us,with a lotta enthu about joining SIMS...and ur right SIMS rockssss...............
c u there..............

Hey...I have a question πŸ˜ƒ It is the same one that I have asked before in my posts. When are they going to inform the waitlisted students of the rejection or selection and also confirm if only around 20 are present in the waitlist. Also how will they inform? Is it through the same webpage from which we got the results or will a snail mail come in. Just find out from them directly and post it here. Thanks.

DUDE : wanted to say confirmed back in previoius posts that its the sole decision of SIMS authority and it is they will come with the LIST .

I understnd ur worries and concern but it wud be better idea if u CALLsims and confirm from them about the WAITLIST.

NOBODY in the peers can confirm about the waitlist


NOS are available in the prospectus and on the website too .

RAGHAV .
HELLO....
  1. Braniac...we can understand ur tensions buddy..just call the SIMS office ,i guess they will be able to tell u better..
  2. Tribha...welcome....and as Akshay said...all ur queries have been answered before...so please check the previous posts of all of us only..right here on this thread...(you can start frm the day the Admission results were declared..it'l clarify all ur doubts...!!) πŸ˜ƒ
  3. Also...since u r going to SIMS...kindly ask the Dress code for females..i mean wat colors of sarees and formal suits...and the type of formal shoes wid them(any specifications..??)...it would be a great help to the gals..buddy...!!
  4. also as Sahil said,tribha kindly get any other info. u can get..thanks !!
  5. Sahil...definetly u have a genuine query...and Akshay has really defined it very well..!!
  6. Akshay...good inputs buddy...!!
  7. And now.... what i have to say is that..
  1. though some ppl are of the opinion that doing only one specialisation helps u to concentrate on one stream of management only....but DUAL gives u an oppurtunity to study 2 specialisations(one major and the other minor)....wich can be an added advantage to you...as u get expertise in two fields..!!
  2. choosing a specialisation entirley depends on ur skill set,ur inclination towards a particular stream of managment,ur job/career aspirations and yes as everyone said...on ur performance in your first sem...
  3. so frnds...kindly make a thorough study and analysis of the specialisation which u desire to take...have complete knowledge about it..
  4. an indepth appraisal and detailed research,inputs frm frnds,batchmates and seniors will help us out a lot...
so,keep putting in all that u can share .....
KEEP ROCKING GUYS..... !!! :angel:



Hey Sonal,
Well said ya!!! I'm impressed!!!:)
U're rite in da fact tht choosing d right specialization is most imperative in ensuring one's success in da long run.......coz i'm of da view dat endin up takin up a course dat doesn't intrst u is gonna screw ur entire career ppl.
So hopin dat each 1 of us i.e. d batch of 06-08 at SIMS is able 2 mk da rite decision vis-a-vis d specialization!!!!
Hey ppl y don't v get together on dis thread n dwell more on wat each of da specializations entail............callin out all seniors once again 2 share their gyan on dis.Thus enabling each 1 of us 2 hv a fair knowledge b4 v land up at SIMS.
What says ppl??????
Waitin 4 ur responses............:eh:
Till thn

hi ppl


as the discussion is going on abt the placements let me also contribute towards that... on the day of GD/PI of sims at bangalore . i had met a guy who also came 2 PI he was saying that his freinds are also studying at sims and that offers r only round abt 3.5 L on an avg. i cannot confirm this figure ...

there also another school of thought that says we can divide the inst around the country in 3 tiers .

class 1 has elite b schools (iims.jbims,mdi,spjain etc)

class 2 has good schools(sibm,xim,mica ,tapmi etc)

class 3 has decent schools(SIMS. siib, nirma etc)

the placements for class 1 (AVG 8 L)
class 2 (AVG 5-6 L)
class 3(AVG 3.5-4 L)

and these r last years figures and since this year avg salaries have gone up
we can also see an incr of abt 0.5L for SIMS .. this i got from speaking 2 my faculty at the institue

cheers guys

hi pulse and all

buddy let me share with u what i heard in the presentation by sims when i had gone for interview at delhi. bud they said that the avg pay package was 5.4 lacs last year and hightest was 14 lacs.

now if someone has better knowledge then i cant say but this is what i heard in the presentation. anyways lets cccccc

Not Again Yaar ,:neutral:

What is this happening on this thread , some talk about placements being gloomy ,some talk of it as a C class B school, and some Criticise the Selection Criteria of SIMS.


FOLKS THIS HAS BEEN REARRIFMED AGAIN & AGAIN & AGAIN that this thread is only for QUERIES AFTER FINAL CALLS AND WE ARE HERE ONLY TO SOLVE QUERIES REGARDING SIMS -HOPE THIS IS TAKEN BY ALL(Esp PULSE MANU)

I WOULD REQUEST ALL to KEEP OUR QUERIES RESTRICTED TO SIMS AND NO ONE RAKES UP THE ISSUE OF PLACEMENTS AND POST THEIR FIGURES HERE .

EVERYONE IS FREE TO JOIN AND NO ONE IS FORCING U IF U DONT LIKE SIMS ,THINK WELL AND THEN MAKE UR DECISION.

MOI QUOTING SOME SENIORS ABOUT PLACEMENTS IN SIMS
,
Hello people
Good morning to u all its 4 in the morning and 4 of us r here to congratulate all those who have made it to SIMS and are going to join it. We are glad to see that ppl with passion and zeal are joining SIMS.
Before we clarify certain things and give gyan we as fellow SIMSites know for a fact that if u ppl work with the same vigor in SIMS nothing can stop u and sky is the limit.


Now for some facts The HIGHEST package was 12 lacks but actually one of the students who had a lateral placement and had experience in the defense forces got a package of 14 lacks in HSBC. The average was 5.2 lacks.




We will be embarking on our summer projects soon; there are 4 of us here right now:

SIMS 2007.



HOPE THIS CLEARS ALL ,there are enough people at the other side of waitlist to get into
