Hi All,
Congratulations! Its party time

I have been waiting for someone to start a thread like this..But then I thought of taking the honour myself

This thread is for all those who got thru IIMB to interact with each other and know each other. I think we can begin by posting our profiles and then put our queries for seniors to answer.

I hope seniors will visit this thread from time to time to guide us.

Guys IIMB website is still not showing results correctly!! what to do?

Hi Guys,

This seems to be a problem with quite a few of us. I think the tips offered below would work. Once you get onto the webpage as mentioned in the link below do the following:

http://alpha2.iimb.ernet.in/pgp2006/offer.html

1) Refresh the webpage or clear any history/cache that maybe present in your PC related to this webpage
2) Check if the DoB asked for is in the format (dd/mm/yy e.g 11/03/79). Any other data which might be fetched from the cache would ask for the DoB in the dd/mm/yyyy format.
3) Thats it... Enter your required details and wait for the results.

I guess it should work. It worked for me this way.

Well not quite. I have been entering my DOB in dd/mm/yy format since last morning to no avail. Still get the message :

Please check the information you entered. The date of birth should be entered in DD/MM/YY format. As per the information you entered, you were not called for GDPI towards admission for the PGP 2006-08 at IIM Bangalore.

Would have to say its rather unprofessional on their part. Would have been ok (somewhat!) if it were a one-off case; but here it seems like too many people facing the same problem. I guess we need to call the admissions office and ask them to fix it ASAP.

hey check out if http://alpha2.iimb.ernet.in/pgp2006/offer.html has (dd/mm/yy e.g 11/03/79) or (dd/mm/yyyy e.g 11/03/1979) next to the date of birth field. For me in office the latter format comes up on screen and i get the message 'no match for information', at home, the former format comes up on screen and i get the message 'congrats, u r selected'... Are you connecting through a proxy sever?
