XISS: post your queries here

Hi sudeep! Congrats for converting IRMA and SCMHRD !!

Could u plz throw some light on what sort of GD topics were asked last year?.. i mean was it diverse(social/economic/political) or course specific like PM candidates had GD with social issues or finance&marketing; had economic topics?? May sound silly question to u but i've applied to only 1 course, that's Marketing...so pretty worried and XISS my last hope :|

Also what was the average %tile of the candidates who were called for marketing? I scored 75 overall and 10months exp in DELL (Sales)...so what r my chances and what sort of candidates does the interview panel seeks, i mean the approach is focussed more or the profile and acads??




..gone thru lots of posts in this thread i feel that one should be focussed and dedicated towards future goals instead of being too much brainy,techie or aspire to make a better return on investment at placements. But still it would be better to hear from someone who had attended XISS last year.... Plz suggest




the topics asked in gd were very random....gd is nt an issue at xiss...what matters more is that u should have good pi...
make a preperation of a very simple thing i.e. what u were doing in last few years and what u wanna do in next 5 years...in the midst of it where does xiss acts as a link...if u r clear with it u will get thru...

well with ur %ile and as u hv applied 4 marketing and have got a very decent work ex u have a very preety chance of making it....
atb.........

Thanks a lot sudeep!! :p

Btw how long did they take last year to announce the results??.. 1 month?? This year the PM course interviews will finish 30th April and MKT on 21st... So any idea when will the final merit list be declared this year??

hi!! shivam..
i support your views...discouraging an aspirant is an unforgiveable crime ..until the results are declared all are equally compatible for the course...

absolutely agree , no one has any right to talk about one's candidature .
and someone who is just 20 posts old person , does not have any knowledge to counsel anyone should keep its mouth shut :nono:because 80 percentile in xat and for xiss is more than enough to get in .

and to discourage someone ( intentionally or non deliberately ) is highly nincompoop , puckish and incompetent task in this world.

sorry to say it but dear it is india where we have 50% quota on one side , stiff competition on other side :nono: and then if we people talk about our candidature insanely makes no sense to anyone.

thank you puys! all the best to all aspirants (including me :)) XISS is my last option so I dont want to leave any stone unturned. thanks for the advice and support... gd date is 28, anybody here with me?

As I've said earlier, percentile is not the factor for not selecting a student for the program. If you have been called even though you have a low percentile, the reason is simple, because you deserve a place.

Next, what you should remember is this institute is not just another one where you walk in show some flashy stuff and you are in. Here they consider how motivated you are for the program and your career. It's very simple, if you are keen on seeking the PM program, and you know this program will help you in achieving your goals, then you will crack the GD/PI easily and will also reserve a place in the batch.

Guys thank you so much for ur posts.. those have been really helpful and motivational...:thumbsup: All the best to all aspirants:cheerio:

One last doubt, how long does the entire process(GD/PI) last? Have to board train to pune the same day for IMDR...
Also i couldn't find the number of seats per course offered in the college website?? ..reservations are 50% but what is total no. of seats in each??.. is it 60??

In the brochure it is mentioned there are 75 in RD and PM and 60 in IM,Marketing and Finance out of which 50% seats are reserved in each stream.
So dat shud make 30 seats for general in marketing.

I usually never question anyone's statement in a public forum, but this time I would like to take a stand and write it out.

I've never seen a hypocrite like sud.singh or Sudeep Singh or whatever. Son of a gun says that he doesn't have time to write in the forum, and I see his posts scrolling around everywhere on this thread, and maybe somewhere else too. The guy has converted all the calls and now is all squeezed up in answering XISS queries. And, he himself knows that people on this thread have not scrolled back and read pages from the beginning that reflect the reality about XISS.

A big NO THANKS to the chap. As on my part, I don't need no empty vessel clamor's baseless advise. Scroll back some pages amigo.

Again, its my humble opinion and my disgust..
