Hi guys,

One of the first people to sail thr' GD process (as they call it!!!)

Good thing is that you get to know whether u got in or not in just 1 hr after GD.

Do not worry guys....It's a cool process.

You will be rejected only if YOU CAN NOT SPEAK AT ALL IN GD.

See, it is a different process this time. After you reach there you will be made to sit as per ur groups. They had 8 different panels from A to E and X to Z in Pune. Every group had 8-9 ppl in it.

You go to diff panels. May have ex army officials there.

We had a case study and a discussion abt some qualities of a good manager.

Acc to me what is important is "Group Dynamics" over here. U have to get the grp to a consensus. Those guys who were not ready to get to consensus were rejected. (At least in my grp)

No. of ppl selected differed grp to grp. All ppl can be selected,all can be rejected, too.

What you have to do is just be cool, natural and do not try to be oversmart. Show that you are considerate type of person, listen to all and CONSENSUS is the word they love, so try to do that in grp.

THEY HATE FISH MARKET. THEY TOLD THIS IN BEGINNING ONLY. THEY INTERUPTED WHEN OURS TURNED INTO ONE.

Another grp turned into FM and only 2 of 9 ppl were selected. Those were the ppl who spoke the least.

So key to success is just keep cooooooooooooooooooool!!!

All the best, friends!!!

Pagalguy,

Liked the new look of PG very much!!!

Kudos to you ppl out there!!!

Hi

plz post the topic (in case of GD) or the case study as the case may b
also .......

it will b helpful

Hi folks,

First of all, a lovely new look site!!! Congrats PG's!!! the most confusing thing that's happened with symbi is that they call their first round as group process...wherein it can imply anything from a normal gd, case study and its analysis, experimental group tasks and games!!! in most of the cases,prob more so in tasks and games the onus of one's rejection may not entirely lie on the individual himself....on the contrary a person may be rejected just because his group came up with a shoddy show!!! similarly trying to force one's point at the same time may cause the gd's to turn into a fish market...so a small bit of advice to ensure that deserving guys get selected is to play to ur strengths, not to get involved in a fish market and try to bring some decorum into the entire process...once we follow this process we make not only our tasks easier but also the examiner's too!!!

cheers

got selected for next round .
our grp had a case study and a puzzle to solve..
puzzle we couldnt solve and they didnt tell the ans also :-(

case study was about cosmetic firm shipping defective batch of cream. What should the company do when they come to know of it.

whole process was ok and 3 ppl got selected. I think they were looking how a person can handle situations and is active in the discussion...

I just jumped from one place to another

Hi Strawby,

I think it is better to write in a language which is readable.

It would be great if you can avoid using such shortcuts.

Best of luck to all of you.
Thanks,

Hi Folks,

Me got shortlisted too!!! We too had a case sudy on the cream co and a group task in which the scenario was of 2 islands and their set of armies. A no. of conditions were given as to what is the min force needed to defend a base or capture an enemy base etc etc. the grp had to come up with a strategy to attack the enemy.

Hi
me selected for the next round too at pune. there was 1 group task(like a gd) in which v were asked to strategize a plan to attack another base. again there was a case study soon after which talked abt a emerging cosmetic compay which has shipped accidentally a poor quality product.what should we do as employees of the company(strategy again).both for me were fishmarkets but the key was to maintain a cool tone and talk relevant.all who did not give relevant points i think were out.

Hi Friends
Kindly post the no of rounds and wat all documents are we supposed to carry on the GD day...
Nybody for Delhi round on 8th ..contact me....

hi everyone

congratulations to all those who made it in the gd round and all the best for the interviews.

it seems like this time they are having 2 rounds of group tasks. i was just wondering if they are giving any current economic or political topic to discuss....everyone here either talked about the case study or strategy for some military operation. ... if anyone had a gd where some eco or pol topic was given to discuss, please write down about the topics.

and guys what documents you carried along with you. we have not received any call letter by post. the snap admit card was submitted at the time of the written exam.

can anyone tell about the approximate no. of ppl selected from a batch.... how long did it take for the process for one batch to get over

well that seems like way too many questions....but i am really anxious about the gd.....ppl keep posting your experiences


all the best to everyone

hi,
no of ppl selected from each batch varies ... some batches had only 1 out of 8, mine had 4 out of 8 being selected.

no docs have to be shown for the gd .. atleast in pune ... dont take a risk carrying them ... a girl lost the file today coz they made everyone keep their files outside the gd room in a common hall ... pretty risky i say

-V

Can anybdy plz tell me whether theres any clarification for pune or nasik campus....

anybdy for 7th in Delhi at 9:00 am...
