Hi,

Many congratulations on getting a call from TISS in Urban Policy and Governance
Please share your score and PIT prep plans over here
As we all know that this course has only 20 seats and very few seniors to help us, we need to help each other in preparing for the PIT
All the best

My Score : 84

The PIT consists of either a Group Discussion (GD) or a Written Test.
So as of now it is not sure whether it is a GD or an Essay
TISS will come up with a Detailed Application Form in a short while
We need to write our Bio-sketch on that and also why do we want to pursue this course, so any ideas about the same is very much welcome

Marks for the Different Components
National Common Written Test 100 marks
Pre-Interview Test prior to the Personal Interview 50 marks
Personal Interview 75 marks
Total 225 marks

With only 20 seats ( Expecting the call to be 200 ) and only 10 for General ( call should be around 100 ) we are up for a stiff competition

TISS-NET Score

not many candidates have applied for urban policy and governance it seems...hardly anyone talking about it

6
@mihirj Not many has got calls
Seats are very limited, I think 9-10 for General, so might be only 90-100 calls given out for general category
BTW how are you preparing for gd-pi ?
7

there isnt GD i guess

we'll have to write an essay for 50 marks..the topics could be on current issues like women safety, corruption etc...
interview mein we may expect questions as to why did you opt for this course and the things which we will mention in the detailed application form
