hi,
Well I have a doubt regarding the weightage of test scores given by welingkars in the overall scoresheet.
In the prospectus it was mentioned that a weightage of 100 would be given to the test scores i.e. CAT / CET scores
In addition to the CET, candidates(applying with CET scores) have also appeared for a written test on 27th FEB'05 if I am not wrong.
Then what would be the test score weightage for such candidates??
Also wouldn't welingkar discriminate and have a relative grading between people applying through CAT and CET??(..Coz both have simply different pattern of questions and marking!!)
I am faced with a catch-22 situation.
90%ile in both tests.:huh:
(I hope Funkyfuturist is really correct this time!)
me too posted bout info. on pgpeb prog. but the only reply i got was" look for previous threads" which i cud not locate till now...but i think we must keep posting to unless we get a better answer..

The 100 points are for the written test. The scores will be equated and scaled to 100. This means a cet %ile of 85 doesnt mean u get 85 outta the 100 neither is it equal to a 85%ile in cat. What is the equation, there are statistical formulas available that is used to equate the scores.
If you have submitted both, the better score outta the scaled 100 will be taken.

HOPE THAT HELPS!!
I have my doubts on where that information came from. It is I think for the batch that passed out in 2003. i.e. two years ago. The info on the thread is from last year.
The actual placement scenario is available here

hey guys
pls. let me know about their pgp-eb programme...as regards their placements, infrastructure,credibility and their mumbai and bangalore campuses..i checked their web site its not clear and the prospectus doesnt says much
Since you have been having trouble let me put it together again.
- The PGPeB course was started in 2001 in Mumbai and 2004 at the Bangalore campus.
- Infrastrcuture is the same campus at Mumbai. The Bangalore campus has similar infrastructure.
- The course was started based on industry requirements. (Bangalore was hence the natural choice)
- The highest salaries have gone to an ebiz person every year.
- Please read the attached file for an idea on the course. This is what we give companies when they want to know more about the course.
Does Welingkar have 100% placement as they claim for the PGDM and the MMS cource. and which cource will result in better placements??
ALso i was told that even though Sydhnem is better than KJ or Welingkar(as far as placements) their standard has remained stagnant for the past few years.
Only welingkar outta the 3 is actually doing better every year and will soon( in 2 years ) catch up with sydnem and KJ
Please confirm
adi if u can help,
they have asked me to send the CET details but my CAT was 96% but CET is pretty poor... wud it affect my chances when comparing with others?
cos if
1. i have the same welingkar score with another person and he has better CET score he'll get thro...(thts obvious...but read further)... but
2. if i dont send CET score thay wudnt know so we'll be on the same level, the other candidate on CAT and CET scores and me on only CAT, so the comparison may be on extra-curriculars etc acads....which i am sure i have excellent record!!
so by not sending CET scores will it help me or count against me? or do they only look at the higher score and forget the CET cos one shud only take into consideration 1 written exam for the weightage thing...whts pg opinion on this one?
bugs
p.s. pls reply soon, todays the last day to send the emails. i was out of town so didnt check mail didnt know CET result was out!!!

I have already said, the better of the scaled scores will be taken. I doubt it will be held against you that u hv not sent the CET details but I suggest u send the CET details anyway.
The mail has gone only to candidates shortlisted under CET and ppl who hv been shortlisted between CET and CAT.

yep. the placement process is common for MMS, PGDBM and PGPeB courses. Everyone is placed barring the few who explicitly opt out 'coz they hv their own businesses and so on.

hey guys!
wld like 2 know how many of u would take up welingkar if u get a final call from welingkar. also how many have applied 2 the banglore campus as well?
i would like 2 know this coz since aditya says that the college would start by 20th june, then whether welingkar intends 2 put up a second list as well after the first one!
plz reply guys!
These ppl r taking too much time rnt they? Where r the results? Now that they have the CET scores the results shud not take long in coming!!!!
Any1 found out as to when they might post the results? All my calls never went beyond the electronic recording. No operator picked up the phone.
Funny!!!!

relax dude!
they said END of MAY
AGREE! Chillax people... you will know between 26th and 31th (technically the last week of may) ;)
Wellingkar is definitely better than that stupid DTE which is making people give the exam in February and declaring results in August... P-A-T-H-E-T-I-C. Term for MMS starts mid-august... P-A-T-H-E-T-I-C... Wellingkar has definitely done a good job and that too in 1/5 of the time...
from wat I heard the results shud be out by May 25/26 and June 27 they intend to start off the PGDMB sem.
My big confusion is whether I shud take PGDBM or MMS ( assuming of course that I get in both which I expect to )
Any help on this front ? 
that was all we wanted to know..

Take the MMS its cheaper... You might end up getting the same kinda placement as it is centralised at wellingkar 😉
