Hey ppl!
About me:
Education : 12 years schooling at DPS. B.E. (computers) from DIT(now NSIT).
Work-ex : Complete 4 years next month. Work in telecom software in NCR's biggest telecom software company. (now, i'm sure some of those PG folks i met during GD-PI sessions recognize me )
Cat scores : 99.69 (VA-94.5;QA-99.5;DI:99.5)
Calls : ABCLKI
Coverted : BCLKI

GD-PI Experiences :
A - below average GD; OK PI
B - OK GD; OK PI
C - below average GD; below average PI
L - OK GD; OK PI (too OK actually, didn't feel like I was in an interview)
I - OK GD; OK PI
K - OK GD; HORRIBLE PI

My take on all this : Profile matters MUCH more than GD-PI performance. As long as you can support what you state on your form, can communicate reasonably well and seem the sort of person someone wouldn't mind being around for 10 mins at an airport lounge, you are cool... BUT the profile is what really matters. Of course, not too much you can do about it by the time you come down to the GD-PIs, but for those planning for cat-2004, some more food for thought.
