Hi guys,
So it seems that all u guys have started preparing for GD/PI gr8.
Sonal seems to b bit nervous , but sonal , I feel amongst all the candidates here u have better chance of getting through. Only condition is that u need to present u r priorities in front of panel quite clearly.
Also regarding GDs my basic suggestion would b have a fair idea of wats happening currently around u especially social issues and political one.
SWAMI ramdev episode is quite fresh, also FDI issue is also getting the spot light every now and then ,INDO-CHINA COOPERATION for future growth and regional balance of power can b a decent topic. Also IIMs autonomy issue that is there singapore venture might also come ,last but not the least all time favourite reservation (in educational institutions ) might also b discussed.
BEST APPROACH IS TO WATCH BIG FIGHT:grab: AND WE THE PEOPLE ON NDTV.
My being a BBA student Iam working on management case studies and reading couple of books on Marketing coz that was my area of specialization.
Also guys with work ex just know u r company inside out also u r sector so that u will provide more information than wat is ask for.....
Regarding dress code gals should opt for a cotton saree and guys as usual black trouser ,blue or white plain full sleeves shirt with matching TIE , and if business suit is there than go ahead.
Last but not the least always wear a cheerful smile on u r face ,always see the glass half full:satisfie: and know that u r here becoz u deserve to b here.
Right now I am awaiting SIIB and SCMHRD besides that I am preparing for my CET coz there are few decent B schools in MUMBAI and CET is on 26 feb.
Regards,
Rocky

: Hi Digi,
hey don't get disheartened dude.....look at the brighter side...you have calls from NMIMS and SIMS....just give it your best shot and u will convert atleast one of them......
as for the case studies....its no big deal.....basically what happens in a case study is that that you are given a situation....its actually a scenario......probably u'd be given the market demand for a product,its competitors,the cost of production etc and based on that u as part of the team would have discuss the implications and the best possible way to launch a product......thats more or less that u do in a case study.....the situation might be different but basically they see apart from how you are in a team,the way in which you go about thinking for a problem..........so the most imp rule in a case study is that think aloud....let the panel know what's goin on in your mind.......
watever else you need just write in.....will try to help u as much as i can.....

hey don't worry about that....we engg have an additional edge above the others whereever we go.....and here also we will have an advantage.....cz the prob wld nthing be of a complex one where'd we'd hv to put in economics or business studies to use.....it will just be a situation.....and i believe that we engg have a better approach to any prob cz logical and organised thinking is something that has been instilled in us in our 4 yrs of degree......
so don't worry abt that......
Akshay
Hi,
to answer to your queries one by one......
1)that i answered in the earlier post
2)you have to assess the prob or the situation given to you....discuss what you think cld be the root of the problem.....and then as a team come up with the best possible solution for it......and that you do by putting fwd various solutions and discussing its pros and cons.....
3)they checking team work,how organised your thoughts are.....and how you react to a problem given to you......
4)again answered that in 2)......
5)talk just like in a gd......but for god's sake don't start off starightaway with....i think the sloution to the prob is.......and blah blah...........you have to make sure that the group first discusses the problem....the causes for it and based on that come up with solutions.....but all this while keep a check on the time cz you are expected to come up with atleast one solution as a group..........
6)its the best if the group has a final conclusion as a whole.....thats the whole idea of team work...........
and in many ways i feel that a case study is better than a GD cz in a GD you might get a topic that you have absolutely no idea about but few pple in the grp have huge knowledge about it....then you are screwed......in a case study your thinking process is checked...so that makes no different......and ur in a better position...howveer i repeat that its really very important that in a case study the group be oprganised......cz its really easy for the grp to get lost with some pple talking abt the cause of the prob and some one giving his solutions.......it all has to be systematic........
hope i was able to help u out
Akshay
