Hi, I submitted my application a week back, when can I expect the calls to roll out for the interviews? Also, I could not find any information on hostels. 1. Are the hostels shared even for PGPM students? 2. Are there shared bathrooms? 3. Are the hostels inside the campus? 4. If someone's family wants to visit, are there any guest rooms? 5. Do you give campus tours? 6. If we get accepted at the institute, how much time buffer do we have before accepting the offer? 7. PGPM programme is for 19L, I read online that this does not include non-veg food? Why charging so much for food then? ISB gives non-veg included in the food. 8. Why can I not find a single picture of what the hostels look like? Every college has a gallery for student accommodation on their website. 9. When do PGPM classes commence? 10. Why are calls to your admission desk never responded?
I would like to apply to PGPM at Great Lakes, Chennai(Round 2). Could you please evaluate my profile and provide your feedback.

So, I am done with the WAT-PI process of PGPM round-1. The PI was very casual. They didn't even ask about my work or why do I want to do an MBA? The first question was on where do you think you can get placed from our college. . Some very basic questions on what are the social problems faced by people of my home town. I don't know if it was just with me, or with everyone . There could be two scenario - I got lucky or I'm doomed. WAT topics were on the new technologies taking over the conventional work system.
Please evaluate my profile for both Chennai and Gurgaon campus. GMAT - 560 , 10th- 90.6 %, 12th- 82.2%, Btech- 7.28 GPA, Work ex - 3.5 yrs almost in IT
1.5 years in Accenture as a developer. Currently working as a techno-functional consultant in the leading technology- Robotic process automation. Acting as a liaison between developers and the clients. Responsible for business requirement gathering and timely project delivery. Headed teams of 2-3 developers each in every project undertaken.

Being a GLIM aspirant, I would like to know what should I be aiming at before I attempt any of the exams.
I have a 78% in 10th, 87% in 12th and a 73% in B.E. Currently, I have an experience of 2.6 years working as a data analyst in a reputed insurance firm which might go upto 3+ years by the time I apply for the programme next year.
Could you please help me out in assessing where I stand as far as academics/experience is concerned and what scores should I be aiming at in GMAT, CAT and XAT that would get me an interview call from the institute?
(If there is anyone else in this forum who could help me out, kindly do so)
