Time slot 2.00 pm
Batch-15
Reached the college at 1.15. It was difficult to locate since its not known to people staying near that college.
Immediately got that candidate profile form. Filled it in 5 mins.

So puys be prepare with answers. It will definitely help you remain calm. Then was looking here n there. College was really boring. There were 8 of us. 2 people were absent.

Then Went to GD

GD Topics-　1. Should human cloning be permitted?
　　　　　2.　Rules and regulations breed corruption.
Obviously elected 2nd one since no one was sure about topic 1.It was most pathetic GD I ever had in my life. Full to fish market. 3 to 4 people talking simultaneously, going into small fights in between the GD. one to one arguments and what not?????? One guy was continuously talking with the person who was next him. And girl was discussing our topic with 3 panelist. Panelist interrupted for more than 2 to 3 times, but it went into vain. And I was njoying all this.
Discussed few points about how rules and regulations is helping corruption. Lodz of examples were discussed. But gud thing was got chance to summarize the GD.


Then came to PI
I was 2nd one.
two guys with 50 to 60 age. P1 n P2(He asked only 1 qustion n was laughing at me only )
Good afternoon sir.
P1 sit down.
M thank u sir.
P1 Where r u from
M told
(Then P1 got a call on his cell phone)
P2 Tell me a story.(This was the onlay)
M Olaaaaa. Which story sir????
P2 Any story which will end in 5 secs n will have 5 to 10 sentencess.
M Was started story Once upon a time n all
Will continue after some time. Sorry

I think being asked to tell a story in an MBA PI is ridiculous.By the way you didnt mention if you actually told them a story and what happened in the PI later.Please shed some light on the complete PI experience.This will surely act as an eye opener for many candidates whose PI's are lined up.We now better prepare ourselves with stories,puzzles,poems and what not..

(Then P1 got a call on his cell phone)
P2 Tell me a story.(This was the only)
M OOlaaaaa. Which story sir????
P2 Any story which will end in 5 secs n will have 5 to 10 sentencess.
M Was started story Once upon a time. I told them the story of rabbit and tortoise I know this is pathetic to ask such questions for testing a candidate.
(Till then P1 was busy with his ph call)
P1 Tell me GDP
M 7%
P1 Pls can u give us industry (Primary, Secondary, Tertiary) wise break up?
M I was blank. Told I m not able to recollect it right now.
P1 Ok no problem. (Then he taught me that whole thing in 1 min)
P1 Why MBA?
M Told (Was ready with monologue)
P1 Impressed. Then asked me to talk in Japanese (I m Japanese translator n interpreter by profession)
M Talked some sentences in Japanese, which were entertaining for them.
P1 n P2 started laughing madly
P1 Can u speak little bit more in Japanese??
M Then I taught few Japanese words to them.
P2 Gauss ur next question?
M I was not sure so told. It would be related to significant event of the decade.....................
P1 Ok then tell about significant event n why?
M Told, was very confident with it.
Then few testing questions who invented n when????
I was ready with all. So gave awesome answers to toughs questions.
P1 Why MBA? (Finally)
M Again was ready with my weapons.
P1 Ok. So which specialization r u looking for?
M No not yet decided. Will decide once I get into the college.
P1 He was not happy with the ans. Asked P2 for any questions? He was reluctant to ans.
Finally P1 We r done. Thank u.
M Thank u sir n spoke Japanese word which I had told then earlier.

So all this drama lasted for 10 min not more than that. There were no traditional question like tell me about urself, No questions on Work ex, No strenths n weaknesses, No gk, n many more.

I am totally unsatiesfied with my performance. Looking forward for results.



Important pointer for fellow puys,
1. Be prepare with candidate profile form. Its most most important thing to crack ur PI
2. Be calm and be friendly with ur group. This will help u in GD.
3. Carry hall tickit, N also carry small waterbottle.
4. Pls guys try to read as much as possible. Make ur notes n be ready for any surprises. U never know whts gana happen?

This is all from my side. Hope it will help u all.

ATB
