When will result of the WAT-PI be declared??

I had the WAT PI session on 19th Feb , In the personal data form, i filled up 2014 to 2014 instead of 2014 to 2015 for the third year section, I am in the final year of Engineering. I have submitted the form to the panelists without making the correction. Will this be a problem? What should i do now? please answer.

Sharing my WAT/PI experience..

I had my WAT and PI on 18th Feb, Forenoon Slot, Mumbai.

8.30am sharp the process starts so be there before 8.30.

We had faculty from IIM Trichy. They started with their introduction and explaining the entire process for the day. We were given our panels (Check the sequence in the list to find out when would be your PI) and the paper for WAT.

At 9 sharp our WAT started. Time Limit : 30 mins and Word limit : 300 words.

Topic : Employees are assessed and judged for appraisals by their superiors, shouldn't the subordinates be given the chance to assess the superiors. (I don't remember the actual wordings)

Once we were done with our WAT, we moved towards our respective Panel rooms. Panel consisted of 3 members. Two were IIM-T professors and one was external.

My PI questions:

Tell us something about yourself.

Tell us some things about your co-curricular and extra-curricular activities.

Tell us about a situation when you were managing something critical, faced with an issue and then messed up or came up with a good solution. What did you learn out of it?

Do you read anything? (I replied with newspaper)

What is the most pressing news presently? (I replied JNU and how media is hyping up the issue, how Modi govt is blamed up for everything)

What would had you done differently if you were the PM of the nation? (The discussion went on to more communication of the truths, twitter, social media etc etc)

Now that you are from Electronics background, Tell me what is the difference between Voltage and Current. and tell me their units. (I have done my engineering from Electronics and Telecommunications)

Any questions for the panel?

Some things i observed,

Panellists were patient and were ready to hear from you, no cutting off your answers, No stress interview. Just be calm.

None of my documents were asked for. They just took the print-out of the form we submitted.

Dress code: i was wearing a Tie and formals, 50-60% had a suit with them.

They said they would be declaring the results on 10th May.

I hope this helps..!! All the Best..!!
