XISS: post your queries here

Hey Puys,

The XAT cut-offs for admission varies DEPARTMENT-WISE & CATEGORY-WISE.
For PM & RD, IT'S GENERALLY HIGH for general category students. The no. of seats in both the departments is 75 each, out of which 50% are reserved. Means, you're left with 35+ odd seats in each. Therefor, the competition is tough for these departments. Roughly, the XAT %ile of successful students (Gen category, strictly on merit) for PM ranges 80s-90s and for RD ranges 70s-80s. Plus, Interview is the MOST VITAL part of the process. You must be able to justify why you're looking forward to make a career in the field. Remember that you're applying for a Specialization and not for a General Mgmt. Program a la other Institutes (where you've the freedom to decide in the second year).
Apart from a good XAT Score, to make a cut in PM/RD( again, if you're a Gen Category student,applying strictly on merit basis), you must have something significant to show : e.g. excellent acad record/ cocurriculur achievements/ work-ex etc. The Rush is high.

Cut-Off for Marketing is not that high. This department is newly established, it's the 3rd best of the institute.

For Finance/IM, XAT cut-off is the lowest (Ranges as low as the 30s. Seriously!! )
Anyways, these aren't worth applying.You can think about Finance but just F'get about IM. It is the worst!


Aspirants must understand that the Institute has a Social Service Orientation and is Quite different from Other B-Schools. it's best known for the Sectoral Specific niche HRM & RD programs. Unless you have a passion (read Social Passion), you can't make Big in these fields. My advice will be to follow your heart rather than opt for a department having GOOD PLACEMENTS. This way you'll avoid committing A GROSS ERROR regarding career choice and will be HAPPY & SATISFIED with a profession of YOUR INTEREST.




Make your passion your profession. This way, you'll never feel that you're WORKING at all.

Hey can u tell me that for applying in it mark sheets need to be attested and as i am staying in dehradun and having my originals at my home @ jharkhand can i attach attested photocopies scanned and emailed to me and produced as original attested photocopies i cant send as i am having photocopies with me but not the originals and without verifying originals no one could attest them. And as i have very less time to apply so the attested photocopy from my home couldn't rach me from home by courier on time. Is there any way out?
And if u hv GD/PI sessions with XISS then plz let me know what kind of topics and questions are asked? I will be grateful to you...!

hyy guys

RD is for the people who love to serve others.it is not for the people who wants good package.
however xiss has 100 percent palcement for RD.
if u talk to cutoff last year people 60+ called for GD in RD
However environment now is not of last year . it may be increase.
fees for last year was nearly 2.6.
this year fees also going to increase little
