Heloo there to one n all..
for all those who still havents had their interviews.. i'll narrate my experiences.. i wonder if that'll make things any better , but nevertheless..
to start with.. there were abt 40 ppl scheduled at the same time slot as mine.. we were divided into 3 groups of 13, 13, 14.
the panelists for the 3 groups were different..
they started with the caselet kinda GD..
b4 the GD began, they made it clear that they had called 850 ppl for the GD/PI, n thus performinng well in the GD competing against 12 others did not translate into a good chance of selection st. away, coz u r hadly aware of wat happens with the 837 others...
it was a 25 minute thing.. 3 mins to think abt the case, 17 to discuss n at of these end of 20 mins they ask ppl who havent spoken in the GD to contribute.. or ask sm ppl some further questions.. for eg.. my caselet read " For every 1000 male children born in India, only 943 female children r born. The govt. has appointed a advisory committee to check the problem. What sugeestions woud u like to make , for the upliftment of women, as a member of an NGO."
so after the 20 mins.. they asked 1 person to summarise, 1 ," who is actualy responsible for the skewed sex ratio( parents/ society/ govt)".. n a couple o other such questions.

thatw as abt it for the GD.
In the PI.. it lasted abt 10 mins..
as for my panel.. a certain lady by the name of Dr. Sanghamitra,an OB teacher, One gentleman called Mr. Vinay Dutta,a finance teacher at FORE n some corporate..

first thing i was aksed was if my name matched my temprament, n wat instances i cud quote to prove the same.. did that.
next ques was " y MBA"..
i am working, so they asked me to calc the opportunity cost of doing an MBA,, n leaving my job.. in relation to the same.. asked the last year's avg salary at FORE..i had misquoted it.. it was actually 4.5 , for ur reference ...
then.. somethings related to acads.. make a marketing plan for a financial svcs organisation, differences b/w a telecom
svc provider n banking svc provider,,, (my academic background required me to know the same..so it was ok).. then some GK questions.. which i had no clue abt.. toooo bad on GK.. questions were.. wat is the Macmohan lline.. this i knew.. some other line.. that i had never herd of.. where is the Black sea :).. I know it sounds scary,, n that's y i mentioned at the beginning of my post that i dont really know how helpful my exxperiences will be, but nevertheless...N yes, I DO NOT HAVE A GEOGRAPHY BACKGROUND.
then a question.. is delhi a state or a UT.. n lady tried convinding me that since it has a CM n legislature.. it is a state...
n the least question was.. " how many times does the digit 9 appear b/w 1-100. i answered this incorrectly too :(.
that was it.. on the whole .. i am not really hopefull. cant really comment actually.. but anyways.. ALL the very best to all the others who r yet to take their interviews...

thanks cataracker but please increase the font size. I have spectaclesand it took some doing to read this
