my GDPI experience-
process was smooth and systematic.
PI questions-
Tell me abt yourself?(i covered hobbies,workex and strengths here so no separate questions on that)
why mba?
goal in life?
how mba will help to achieve that goal?
what qualities do you posses that will help u to achieve dat goal?
2 things you regret doing in life?
any 3 news u hav been following since last 15 days?
what will you do if you dont get admission this year?
cmat score? hav you applied anywhere else?
TIP- you are the driver of your PI,so take them where you feel comfertable

GD Topic-ORANGE colour
gd was good,no fishmarket as content available was very less.there was a break of 1.5 hrs between our pi and gd so we introduced eachother and had friendly chat so it reflected during our gd,it became friendly discussion where everyone was supporting and giving opportunity to speak…

Done with my process,GD topic – How real are Reality Shows, in PI they asked about basic questions,questions related to work-ex ,why mba etc.whole process was well organised u r free within 3 hours .Had gud experience overall ALL THE BEST

Topic for GD was media trial good for society???? and PI was good they mainly asked me why i want to pursue MBA as i m already having masters degree and general introduction and books that i have read in recent past..

________________________________________________________

my topic was: who is responsible for eve teasing? boys or girls

________________________________________________________

GD Topic: Food comes first, Ethics later

i thought it was an easy topic compared to what others got, had made quite a few entries with relative points.

PI: questions were as follows:
tell me something about yourself
what do u want to do?
why marketing? what is selling?
what is a brand? what are the parameters of a brand? why sies?
all these questions i sailed through…but

Why MBA? i had my answer…..but i have a very rough feedback for this particular question..
which doesnt need to be posted i think Cetking Rav Singh
i just feel they wanted to take my case so they did…
Otherwise overall
GD: Good
PI: OK (mainly bcuz of that last question)

Sourav Soni

Had my GDPI at bhopal (Rajhans Regent Hotel).
time 12 .pm.
Was tense as there were too many candidates hopping & Popping every where.
we were given our respective batches.
moved directtly into gd room.
1 panelists for GD(shayad faculty of the college),
we were 12 candidates
Gd topic — Stem cell banking as necessary as Life Insurance.
(blank mind — we were also unknown & blank mind too)
gd initialy was horrible as nobody knew any thing bout the topic.
we were made start the topic one by one.
candidate#1. Mam actually i don’t about the topic but …..blah blah blah…..
candidate#2. Mam actually i don’t about the topic but …..blah blah blah…..
MODERATOR—- DOES NYBODY KNOW ABOUT THE TiOPIC ?
all the candidates —- NO ??????
MODERATOR EXPLAINS HE TOPIC IN DETAIL………………………………..
we start discussing the topic for 15 mins.
then MODERATOR stops us.
says us to conclude himself on by one .
then asks ny body to conclude the gd
I conclude the Gd ,
with a phrase of Mr. J.F. KENNEDY.–“ASK NOT WHAT THE COUNTRY CAN GIVE YOU,
ASK WHAT YOU CAN GIVE THE COUNTRY ”

PI was taken by same MAM who was MODERATOR.

PI was good . asked some profile based questions .
why sies
Why PGDM.
Difference btw MArketting & Sales.

OVERALL good experience .
MAM was good
Coordinator was also good.
RESULTS will be declared in 1 week of june (+2-3 days)

Had my GDPI at Blore today, the process was smooth. The GD Topic was management education is only for the rich, this was the same topic some group had at mumbai, the discussion was a healthy one with me being the first one to talk :-). Interview was also ok with interviewers digging deep into the answers as usual :-P, some of the questions were why mba, Wat would you do if 70 of 100 team member takes a leave on the same day:-P, weakness, and etc.Made some good friends also there :-), overall it was a wonderful experience :-), hope to convert it! Best of luck for the upcoming GDPI!
