All the best
i heard there was a informal GD before the GI began.
also could you setup a poll (like i've seen in previous years' GI threads) of how many people made it into GI round 2 and what specialization they picked. i don't know if i make sense, but the previous years' threads have it
come on puys, no GI experiences till now..?? dilli wale.. kya kar rahe hon aap log.. 
@roni.. AFAIK interviews are in mumbai today
people come on post your experiences
my mistake then, apologies...
No reply uptill now?is there another thread going?
this is the only one i can see.
maybe people are shy 😛 or recovering from their session today.
are they two rounds of GI ? I was under the assumption there would be one GI and one PI- the psychometric test analysis.
I think we have been spamming on this thread.. 😃 no GI exp and so many queries around :)
Plz keep the queries on the queries thread, the one which is being used after the score based calls were declared.
Lets keep this thread clean and meant only for exp.
We can use PM for specific queries. 😃
harshadsunil Saysi heard there was a informal GD before the GI began.
