@alalex thanks bro....!! :)

Very smooth process. Very co-operative seniors. Excellent videos! Mindblowing! These are so well made that the fact that all of them have been made in-house is hard to accept! Music = absolutely fantastic! (all of those who were there today will agree on this-especially the "VIDEO" track) @seniors-Those tracks need to be published and HOW!
GD was good-a topic simple enough to understand, collaborate on and discuss well. All of them (from what I hear) were topics that have a great scope of elaborating. Listen well-decide on a stand and speak clearly-there is a small yet considerable distance between the panel and you.

Extempore had me speaking on a very strange topic where I had to contradict myself at almost every step. Be prepared for a surprise. And for the interview be yourself as the seniors have been saying all the time. (maybe) It helps. Don't know how the extempore and PI went. Can't really say! All the best to everyone who'll be appearing next..

Slot : 3rd Jan morning


Reached the venue well ahead of time, the seniors guided us to the waiting room and sit according to our panels. We were told to relax and even told to grab a bite before the process started :)
the process started with some presentations about SIU and SIBM-B which were actually quite good. the document verification started next. The awesome seniors handled all the queries we had ranging from campus life, specializations etc... All the panels are assigned a coordinator who will take you to the GD/PI room and will talk to you about any queries you might have and make you relax... In my case it really did help :)

the GD process started- we were asked to choose a topic, it was a general topic and our group handled it quite well. Not a fish market at all, everyone got a chance to speak and we came up with very good points. in the end we were each asked to summarize ... Most gave their own views again, i strictly stuck to what was discussed in the GD.

Next we were given a SOP form which we had to fill up in 10mins.. questions like role models, your future plans.. My PI was next and i was the second in my panel...

PANEL - 2 M and 1 F

tell about yourself-- said
where do you see 5 yrs from now-- said
long term goals-- said
why mba now(i have work-ex, quit to prepare for mba) and y not part time.. -->justified
y sibm-b-- said
weakness-- said

then i was told to pick up a chit and speak about it, it was a confusing topic, but i somehow managed.. they seemed happy about it...

My PI lasted for around 5-8 mins.. really short.. even my coordinator was surprised that it was this short.. but he told me to take it in the positive sense


All in all, it was handled really well by the Seniors, the entire process was smooth and they were extremely helpful..

Thank you seniors for your help in the pre-GE/PI, GE/PI process.. you did a great job

ATB to all

Slot: 3 Feb, Morning

Process:
- Documents verification
- Group Discussion
- Asked to write SOP
- PI (First asked to pick up chit and speak for 2 mins) (Was grilled so bad... so bad..... I was almost shaking by the end..... it was a total DISASTER......... no standard questions...... everything was hap-hazard..... was even asked "Paisa banana hai ya nahi????")

Slot - 2nd feb, 1pm

Started with a few amazing presentations...the seniors were managing everything...had a fun time with all of them in a very jolly mood...trust me , helps you calm down to a great extent!

GD - was okay types...I really dont know what you are evaluated on but it was a very random discussion with the whole group shifting focus to another topic altogether lol!

PI - My panel seemed to be moving the slowest...the extempore was a very very abstract topic but okay...PI was more like a chat session for me...I went on n on for 30 mins and I dont really remember the panelists asking me anything in particular haha! probably bored the panelists with all the bakbak :P

was my 1st ever gdpi so dont know what to expect...but it was a real fun experience! the seniors are amazing trust me! talk to them to let off some steam

All the best puys

Chillax and enjoy the whole thing

@MBA_brat

Nikhil will answer this. Otherwise, call up the Admissions Office and let them know the problem. Call them right now if you're reading this. They normally work between 10am - 5 pm on weekdays.

They would be able to help you out.

The number can be found on our website

Don't judge the session based on the grilling. Stress Interviews are sometimes taken just to see how you react under pressure. I hope you didnt stop speaking. If you replied to their questions, even though you might have been shaking, crying etc, they know that you get troubled but cans till think. Anybody is in with a chance. Just because you ahd a tough interview doesnt mean others who had a easy stress-free interview will sail through.

The panelists sitting in on interviews are experienced hiring veterans by now and they inherently know who is bluffing and who isn't. After all, we're not the only MBA's out there ;)

So chill out and wait for the result. Do things that take your mind off this stuff. Go out and enjoy life!

@ASawad thank you for acknowledging our effort 😃 and Yes you will have to believe that the videos were all made by the students and we will try to post them soon. ATB!

@ASawad

From the 2010 batch onwards, the focus was always on finding creative talent within the batch and design posters/pamphlets/banners/print ads/videos for the college. You might not know but there was an internal boom in people bringing out their creative sides to come out and design stuff. We even had workshops and informal catch ups provided by some of our experienced video editor colleagues and people were interested in creating their own stuff.

Every video for all our events is designed internally. It often takes a day and a night to render it! Every poster/banner is self-designed.

I was one of the designers of college and I can now look back and proudly say that we don't just go there to sit all grumpy and try and top the class. We do tons of other stuff as well, this being one of them.

Ask the seniors about college life and what extra they do when you have your GE/PI slots. nobody misses telling a good story ;)

Thanks a lot Sir for this. I do hope I get through. SIBM-B is my best option.
