Waaa.. no offence, my result better than yours by 0.02 with a relevant diploma, got rejected without interview.

cant fathom the reason why, considering the amount of competitions, cca, leadership activities and overseas attachment i have to my name. til now i still can't figure out why i was just rejected straight out.

yea eservices, got through mail 2 days later.

everyday the COP is increasing, but it doesn't make sense that our gpa is similar but i didn't get called for interviwe.

i think they will definitely give me some scripted answer along the lines of "We cannot disclose information blah blah blah, we process each application on a case by case basis blah blah blah. if you like however, you can choose to submit an appeal blah blah blah"

i just sent them a appeal letter, have this sinister plan coming up.

 

[miobox123]

i called them up .. they said sent in batches based on interview cum acadamic results

Aww.. That's weird!!

Rejected without any interview... hmm...

I really hope is not the system fault that left you out somewhere.

did you put ISM as first choice?

 

[Jamesang15]

did you put ISM as first choice?

Yes. it was my first choice for this year.

But it was my second choice last year, yet they still asked me to go for interview.

How about you?

 

[angelritez]

anyone still pending?...

mine is still pending too...taking forever......... Oh welll....

 

[lgp.rebecca]

my application has been rejected.

 

[agenda]

Yes. it was my first choice for this year.

But it was my second choice last year, yet they still asked me to go for interview.

How about you?

4th.. anyway i got the answer, they say they felt that i did not have passion for IT as per reflected on my choices..

anyway, how was the competition last year for you? did the GP go up alot?

 

[Amancia]

Yes, I think the dean does care about how you ranked his school. During my interview, he questioned this interviewee on why she put SIS as her second choice. He knew about our choices. For me, I placed SIS as the only choice for SMU. I left the rest of the choices blank.

May I ask how you knew the reason why they rejected you? You e-mailed them?

EDIT : I must add that when he was very nice when he asked the interviewee about her choices, so I am unsure if it really matters to him or not.
