P: how do u add 2 vectors?
M: told
M: wanted to mention the triangle law, but forgot.
P: how are they multiplied?
M: could not recollect.
P: what are their applications?
M: mentioned mechanics, talked about force; its horizontal and vertical components.
P: diff types of tournaments in tennis (mentioned tennis as a hobby)
M: told
P: diff between the grand-slams
M: told
P: anything diff about davis cup?
M: told
P: why did u join ur comp late (joining was in nov '07)
M: mentioned its comp policy
P: why not a core company?
M: said tht there are few core comp on campus placement, come in 8th sem, no assurance of coming (last minute cancellations occur) so did nt want to take a risk and sat for IT
P: diff between manager and leader
M: told leadership an integral skill of a manager, but only one of the many others.
P grilled on these lines, i admitted i am confused. said yes u r confused.

am from ahmedabad, and the rest of the int was on tht.
P: history of ahmedabad

P: where is gir forest w.r.t. ahmedabad
M: not sure.
P: who is esther david?

i know, from my answers, i dont deserve a seat here. i hope i do marginally better in the remaining calls. the dream of studying at IIMA will remain just that-a dream.

anyways all is not lost yet. next stop: IIM I.

regards,
devang.


PS: i know my int wont be of much use to most of puys here. since it was personal and ahmedabad-specific. but still, had a smaller dream of writing such a post someday (IIMA int experience) so went ahead and realised that.

I think it was just fine dude. How you answered the questions is as important as the answers themselves. That is something people can't gauge by the description of your interview. Most people do not have a favorable opinion of their performance in such interviews. Chill out and go through rest of your interviews. I think you have a fair chance of making it
