JMET rank: 1106
Before coming to the gd pi experience, i came to roorkee on 19th night, and must say was bewildered by the IIT ROORKEE campus. I went to the DOMS and seniors were there to help and provide us with accomodation. Must say the accomodation is very gud in the hostels with all the necessary things provided. I walked around the campus and enjoyed the campus life, right now i m posting this from the IIT Roorkee hostel itself. Coming to the gd pi exp. I had 1:30 slot on the 20th.

I was the first on the panel, and documents were verified only JMET Rank Card and for ppl with work ex, work ex verification.

I was through with the verification and the seniors gave us a presentation on the DOMS. There was also questionnaire and seniors answered all the queries.

After that to my amazement I was asked to come straight fot the PI without having my GD. I was in the panel 1 with the HOD sir, 2 lady prof's(lf1, lf2) and one prof(p1).

I asked for the permission and in a chorus plz come in. I took my seat and said thank you.
now the process starts.

HOD: tell me about yourself.
Me: blah blah blah, kept on saying it and to my surprise they din't interrupt and i kept on speaking. After that HOD Sir said, should he ask me to stop or I will stop myself. Nywys I stopped.. I had concluded with my career goals. I want to set up an engg colz in Bihar.
HOD: So whose affiation u will req to set up the colz.
Me: Told
HOD: What is diff b/w degree diploma and certification.
Me: Told.
HOD: whose degree u will award in ur colz
Me: Told
HOD: He said he wants to set up MBA Colz. What is diff b/w MBA and PGDM.
Me: Told a little whatever i knew but din't knew the strucure diff.
LF1: Problems of Bihar
Me: Told some more discussion about Bihar.
LF2: She was all the time nodding and putting smiles making me confident.
P1: how do u see mayawati future PM in the next election.
Me: Told

No acads no current awareness, just career goals.

They asked me to leave and when i just about to leave LF1 said ankit 1 last advice. U performed well and made good points but spoke too much. I never thought one can be punished for speaking in a B school interview, as i answered all the questions.

After the interview I went to the GD. Seniors advised not to create a fish market as the profs were upset with the morning gd's.

6 ppl 1 din't turn up. We were given 2 topics asked to choose 1.
topic 1: dont' even remember
topic 2; regional politics bane or boon for india

1 min to think and 7 min for discussion.papers were provided. A girl started , i pitched in next and came in the gd 4-5 times. Some of the guys were very apprehensive about the fish market and they hardly spoke.4 of the ppl spoke well and made gud points. GD was okay no write up and were also asked to fill a feedback form.

My rating: GD 8/10
PI No idea after that u spoke too much thing.
I have my frnds interview slated tommo so still staying in the IIT Roorkee hostel and enjoying campus life.

Hello MODS. I did a mistake in making the thread. Kindly transfer it to the other exam discussion page.

hi puyz.....
i think it's too late for u people to read this becoz when i'm writing my experiences, the last batch interview is goin on......
But these experiences will surely be beneficial for people attending GD/PI in 2010 and onwards....
That's the PagalGuy spirit, U are benefitted from people's experiences and then U benifit others from ur experiences....
Well, PG gives rank 36 to DoMS IITR but i think it's not optimum.....
DoMS deserves better than that.....
The atmosphere was really cooool....
Seniors were very helpful, intelligent and communicative....
Needless to say about IITR Infrastructure......
I don't know whether my performance was worth jumping the hurdle, but I know one thing, I gained a vital experience which I will carry with me in future...
