as i said... GD can be of any topic... dont be too worked up abt GD.... u'll receive pleanty of information in the case u r given... be prepared to get ur hands dirty... write and mark imp points from the case.. remember... everyone else is readin the same stuff... so u shouldnt screw up a point... dont give any assumed info if actual was present...

read the general magazines available and keep urself updated in news... i dont remember either was asked to me... but someone who was in my batch of GD/PI said they were asked abt current affairs...

cheers

Vj.

one more thing... do a little background check on the person who'll be conducting ur GD/PI... it never hurts to know ur interviewer.... their likings, area of study and interests... u can use that in interview...

i would say the same for girls... i remmeber my interview the girls and boy who got selected had a suit... i am not sayin it'll improve ur chances of bein selected... but it'll tick off one of the things u can screw up...

look smart and smell good... that always creates a good impression...

(This is how i Prioritize the areas)
1) Your essays
2) Work experience
3) Field of the interviewer (Like Prof.Mirinda is from Marketing)
4) Acads.
5) Current Affairs
6) General knowledge
7) About Philippines

hey,

though it looks like a good way to prioritise... i dont buy this... especially the part where u kept FIELD OF THE INTERVIEWER = 3.

i said its good and wont hurt to know... but dont go and try and pretend u know much abt the field... these profs r really smart ones... if u outright show that u r ONLY tryin to impress without solid ground on their subject, they r going to kick u out. do it in a subtle way....put that as the last in priority list

this is how i would have made it...

1) ur presentation skills.. its reallly imp u look and talk impressivly
2) Work Ex
3) Current Affairs
4) general idea abt GD conducted before (one of my GD partner and I were asked to give a summary of the GD during interview)
5) Extra curricular activities
6) essays * they have called u for GD/PI = they like ur essays
7) future interest/career option / etc. etc.
Acads * they have called u for GD/PI = they like ur essays
9) Field of the interviewer (Like Prof.Mirinda is from Marketing)

cheers

Vj.
