<font color="#727272">In keeping with SCMHRD&#146;s endeavor to spot students with a sharp

role models, the PGDM class of 1999 had to go through a rigorous multistage selection
process.</font></font></p>

1 </strong></em>- All India Written Test was conducted simultaneously in 13 centers across
the country. A total of 7994 of the 9600 applicants appeared for the test.</font></p>

<p ALIGN="JUSTIFY"><font color="#424242" face="Times New Roman" size="2">The cumulative

of this process</font></b></p>
<p ALIGN="JUSTIFY"><font face="Times New Roman" size="2" color="#727272">SCMHRD takes
pride in its totally transparent admission process. Absence of any discrimination
whatsoever on the basis of religion, domicile etc. ensures merit at a national level. The
scores after each stage are communicated to the applicants immediately as we believe they
have the right to know where they stand. </font></p>
<p ALIGN="JUSTIFY"><font face="Times New Roman" size="2" color="#727272">Senior students
are in charge of management, co-ordination and hospitality during the entire admission
process (except testing process), starting with the prospectus design to the management of
All India test centers and announcement of merit list. </font></p>
<p ALIGN="JUSTIFY"><font face="Times New Roman" size="2" color="#727272">We recognise that
inhibited youngsters may not necessarily mean bad management material. During the group
process testing, silent candidates are specifically encouraged to express themselves.
Topics are changed to ensure equity in personal expression if the original subject(s)
deters debate. We even address the grievances of those not selected.</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman" size="2" color="#727272">We do not select over agressive
and self centred candidates who are not versed in the art of listening. We focus on people
with integrity, depth and originality. We seek people with a determination to succeed by
steady, hard and right work, listening and learning every moment from every person and
event. We believe pretension through <a href="#|"><img src="top.gif" width="41"
