Queries Related To SIMS, Pune

Absolutely rite aksh.....we shud concentrate on other topics now....away from the perennial doubt towards better queries.....
well for starters rainbowsparks aka shruti has a barrage of questions here.....lets c wat party guy says (if he has time to ans all of this)....

Ok i will try and answer your queries to by best abilities
1. No idea about foreign language coz none of our batch mates has taken it i am not form international business os i could be wrong...
2. No major minor thing from your batch you to choce subjects new concept being introduced. Actually currently also there is no major minor thing if u dng Marketiung and finance dual specialiaztion then both are your majors there is no minors. For you guys it will be selection of elective subjects.
3. there is MLL for HR students and MA for other specializations both are optional. On 2 masters degree as per my knoweldge none of the universites allow that as they keep your original migration certificate so you cant not apply for another course so i suggest you can carry on with MCOM and dont apply for MA
4 Mattres, Pillow, bed , study table,book rack and an almira will be provided by our institute
5.
6.Yes break only on sunday saturday was half day for our batch but for our seniors saturday was also full day
7. I am from ICT and party guy from Dual (Marketing& finance)

Hey chicks & blokes ..wassup?
Lotsa info exchng goin on ..huh? seen ur pics at the yahoo group.must say they r just fantabulous!!!
Partyguy Sir ..got lotsa things to ask
So here they go one by one.
1.If a person wants to take up International business whatz the foreign language s/he can opt for?m dying to know
Moi dabbled a wee bit in German earlier.
2.Whatz this major minor thing in dual specialization. Say if a person is doin Finance(major) & marketing(minor) does that mean s/he wont have to study all the sub in marketing.Can u just explain a lil bit.
3.Why is this M.A programme frm Pune university being offered?
Whatz the relation between M.A & HR?
Iam already doin M.com(1st yr ) frm Pune univ so can I still go in for this M.A thingieI mean will the university allow me to do two Masters prog at the same time???
4.Do we need to get a mattress to the hostel.I know .....sounds queer but yeah I honestly wanna know.
5.I have also hrd that seniors also take some lectures in the beginning.Is this true?
6 Do u all get a break only on Sundays?i.e is just one day in a week?
what specialization have u & Iceguy sir taken up?
Must say u r doin an amazing job by answering our queries.

well iceguy sir thnx a ton tht was gud info provided by u i am sure its goona help us all...and yeah also gud questions put up by our friend....thanku 1s again:)



THANKS A LOT ICEGUY SIR....
VERY NICELY EXPLAINED...
THIS VALUABLE INFO.. IS REALLY A GREAT HELP TO US...
THANKS AGAIN.....!!:)

Yea iceguy thnx..... man this is good...... no funda of major n minor..... i think it ll give us the freedom of choosing between two diff career paths altogether...... i feel a general MBA is better than a spclztn at times coz of the vast options a gen one can have......a career change then isnt too tough i feel if one wants to later in life...... so 2 spclztns is def an option fit for me... baaki toh me still in a decisive mode till end of 1st sem coz wanna see how i fare .... yar regarding mattress i heard u gotta bring ur own or smthng......this is quite confusing now....though i am planning to buy thr itself....what about ppl who are getting thr own...!!!

Frieden u don't need to bring mattress or pillows or buckets n mugs here.... all these things r provided by the college... can get a extra pillow incase ur in a habit of using more than one.... completely ur call...

Hey Pune ppl.. lets all meet up sometime.. i'm soooooo bored.. Would be really nice if the seniors could make it too.. i.e if they have time. We could meet up near sims itself.. say Baker's delight/ JJ/ Ratna's? Anytime is ok for me. Do suggest.

Cheers
Pranav.

Sorry for posting late ppl was again in Mumbai yesterday.
Know what. at one of the traffic signals I saw a boy selling How Opal Mehta got blah blah blah. yes the same one by that Indian Harvard student.wasn't this particular thing banned or something?oh .okay enough of this now..
Ice guy sir -Thanks a lot for the prompt reply.My doubts have been fairly cleared .
Thanks a zillion times for taking out time from ur busy schedule just to help us.
Hats off to all ya seniors.u guyz were also very helpful on the GD/PI day.

have u guys heard about orientation period of our college.....
Till now no queries on that strange...................
Okkhaaay.. so allow me 2 start.
What is this 15 days orientation period?Can the seniors explain a lil more in detail about this?
why was I told that well have to get up early during these dayz?& most imp of all why do gals have 2 wear sarees during these 15 days?
Also what is the purpose of sending us the study material b4 joining?what does it contain?has it got something to do wid A/cs, Eco,Mathsi.e anything the do wid the subjects that we r gonna study or have studied?
& one more thing what would be the mode of the testwritten?in a questionnaire format?
Alive_n_ rocking sir- welcome to PG. itz great that we have one more senior to help us.
Tc
bye
Precisly....the orientation period.the very first experience of SIMS that we guys will have there and we just forgot all about it.Thanks a lot ICEGUY to have reminded us about that.
Also lets extend a very warm welcome to ALIVE n ROCKING.always nice to have another senior to guide us through this period of anticipation.
As Rainbowsparks has already voiced the questions that are related to the orientation period I am not gonna repeat them...though would just like to say that it would be really very kind of the seniors if they could give us a brief insight of what exactly happens in the orientation period and why is it done....Only after that I believe most of us will have a few questions regarding that.
CALLING ALL 2007 BATCH.............. please avoid talking about orientation with 2008 batch.... let it be a surprise package for them... just like every SIMS batch...... let them come and feel it themselve................. let these ppl brainstorm themselve ..... but NO INPUTS FROM OUR SIDE..... hope all seniors r with me on this;;;;;;; what say ICEGUY????

Well if thats the way you want it...we have no issues with that.Plus I guess it will be more fun for us that way trying to explore the entire SIMS culture on our own.But somehow I can sense a wicked smile when you said that let it be a suprise package for them...just like every sims batch...Makes me really wonder what are all of us in for........
Right Akshay ..even I smell a rat here.:crazyeye: What say my fellow batchmates?kahaan ho tum log?
hello folks me here only...
  1. got a little busy wid an important project assigment in office... :robot:

  3. all seniors have been a great support n guide always..:satisfie:
  4. thanks once again..partyguy sir,iceguy sir,alive_n _rocking sir...!!
  5. since partyguy sir insists that "orientation" be a top secret...!!
  6. we respect your secrecy towards it... :Fade-col:
  7. seniors,i am sure u all would have also experienced such a surprise package wen u joined SIMS..!! 8-)
  8. and will make us feel as comfortable and at ease as u wanted it to be in ur times...!! 😃

Hey Amal....
nice to hear from you after a long time...ever since the time we meet at Priya's..we were all wondering where have you disappeared to....
Anyways thnx for the news on the study material....Since ur frnd in pune has received it just today,it will take about a week's time i guess to reach us....
So they have sent the books that u've mentioned...any idea what exactly are we supposed to do....i mean we can go through the novels abt personality development but I hope they don't expect us to finish the cmplete Cotler in one month's time....
Is there any assignment that we have to do or smthing like that......?? If you do have any idea please do post it.....
Thnks a lot dude...
