This Thread has been specially created to share GD/PI experiences among aspirants. It will help everyone looking forward to the process and selection.


Apart from the above, this thread is ONLY for posting GD/PI experience and NOT for discussion of specific queries as this thread will be used by your juniors to get idea/feel about the process next year.
Addition:

I request all the aspirants to keep the queries to minimum and just related to GD/PI.

While quoting the post, please quote just the relevant line on which your question is based. Quoting long post makes the thread cluttered. I hope all take this advise in right sense.

Discussion should continue here

After clear the GD.. The selected candidate were asked to wrote the summary of the Gd that happened. (10min)

The PI lasted for abt 15 to 20 minutes..
Basic question like why MBA, Why Tapmi..
Made a mistake of telling them that ROI is very good for Tapmi.
Quizzed me on what basis do u decide te ROI and all..
Then was asked what did I do in my job or in my college to show managerial skill.
What are you future plans after MBA.
Was quizzed a bit about aeronautics...
And finally was asked who is the editor of TOI.. Didn't know.. So said sorry..

In all a very chilled out experience.. Reached SIMSR at 9 and was free by 10:30..
But then I was the first candidate for PI...

The GD consisted of 13 people out of which 10 got selected... But in the other panelist I guess only 5 got selected..
The GD was really nice.. Spoke abt the babri masjid ka issue... SIT investigation in Gujarat... The statement on 9% reservation for OBV Muslim in UP...
