Welingkar GD/PI excperience PGDM

Welingkar being one of the most sought after college for MBA, the GD/PI was not as smooth as CET GD/PI. We were given various slots in the day(they were adjusting late or early comers in various slots). Things were very well organized and professional. It was managed by some seniors from welingkars.
We were provided wid one bottle of water and sandwich so there was atleast some return on investment.....
The process was we had to attend first the presentation on college in audi, nxt it was GD, nxt PI, and later pyschometric test was conducted.

Presentations gave highlight of both the campus banglore and mumbai. Few alumnis, Dean Dr. Uday salunkhe and students gave their presentation.

Nxt we were taken to GD (there were stickers stuck on us like kaidi belonging to group a,b,c,d,e,f,g).
GD

It was a U shaped arrangement and 2 panel members. The topic which we were given was "Rural People have more Fire in their Belly than Urban people". We were given 2 min to jot down points. It started, everyone wanted to speak....as everyone knew they were fighting for 150 seats and there were nearly 5-8 thousand candidates all over india whom they had to compete wid.....but there were a few of candidates who streamlined saying "let me complete my point" but people were listening...so it was a good GD on the whole. There was a instance when i started wid my point and a girl showed some calming gestures wid her hands to me...I was diverted and I had to cut short my point....so kindly be ware of such acts Guys....
Another group was having " Money is the only important thing in life" it was a complete mess as complained by some candidates.
Last 2 min was given for conclusion.
So it was a energetic GD.

PI
I managed to complete just before the lunch time. The girl ahead of me was a designer so she had made a presentation of her own about herself, she didnt take it inside wid her but if required she was ready wid that...it was something different....she was asked wid questions like what is the color of the wall behind u and stuffs...
It was a one on one PI. It was not at all a stress PI. I was asked on my hobbies...I had written watching movies so one of the question was bound to be asked ..fav movie....i said lagaan...then wat was the name of the guy who spinned the ball, who blew drums, orig name of the elisabeth....
So in short what ever u write in the essay questions which u have filled while submittin the form ...u shud be ready wid strong reasons for that....
nxt it was creativity test....He gave me a photograph "2 dolphins moving in downward direction , sun in the background, and water everywhere"...so describe he said , I said as there are two dolphins thy may be couple or just frnds enjoying...I said on the negative side as the sun is setting and the dolphins are moving down it may be an indicator of Global warming...

Nxt question which was asked was if there is kasab sittin outside this room and u see him while going out what wud be ur first reaction to it!!!!
If tendulkar was sittin outside and u meet him then what wud be ur reaction!!!
i was not able to give any good ans for it....

There were a few questions on sharemarket as ...if the nasdaq falls why does bse fall?
another one was if reliance decide to enter in the business of preprocessed food ..how will u take the news!!!

So it was a decent interview, it lasted for around 15min.

Psychometric test
After this i had to move for pyshco test on computer....there were a few questions like are u a socializing type of person.....then if u say yes ....after some more questions it wud be asked whether u like to travel or r u an extrovert....carefully ans are to be given....without contradicting ur self....It was approximately 15min and some 75 questions..

Being the most sought after college a very good competition is expected with welingkars'

MBA CET GD/PI experience 2009

Hi friends,
On 29th I had my MBACET gd/pi at Sydnam college, Churchgate. I was instructed by my friends to be one hour early and it was really very beneficial, as we have to fill a form containing some essay questions for PI before the GD/PI starts (It could also be filled after GD, but u may get less time). So I had a lot of time to fill the questions.

Questions in the sheet consists of
Everything in Block on first page Black/Blue.
Academic details(u need to know ur first yr, second yr, Third yr and fourth yr(if) percentage)
Work experience if any.
ur Roll no and Reg ID(which wud be there on your hall ticket)

Then on the other side of the page u have essay questions.
Strengths and Weaknesses
Achievements/ Extra curicullar activites
National or state level achievements/ Extracurricular activities
Family background
Why do u want to do MBA?
Why do u think that ur a good manager
One event in the last decade which is of a great impact in india.

GD
There were a few students who had come wid their parents. Parents were allowed to sit in the waitin room. Couple of students were in jeans and sport shoes.

So we were called right on time for the GD ( I suppose Students who were being accomodated in some other batch as they were callin for previous batch students so if u are late by mistake dont worry!! But still dont take chances and be one hour before time)

We had a group of approximately 13. A couple of students were not present.
There were three panel members. The topic was sealed in envelop which was opened in front of us.
There were two topics from which we had to select by consensus within 5 min or they will decide which topic to speak.
Our 2 topics were,
A) The Past belongs to us but we do not belong to the past, We belong to the present and We are the makers of our Future.
B)Generation X are the drivers of our future or are they lost souls.

After deciding after disscussion and consensus we arrived at topic A. We were give further 5 min to think over the topic and discuss. Just make sure that u start or stop when the bell rings or on instruction. Someone started before the bell rang in US.

The GD continued for 15 min, I thank god it was not a fish market. It was a cool GD wid points coming out at proper pace. Candidates who were not able to enter were given chance by the panel in between. People lookin at faculty and speakin were instructed in middle DONT LOOK AT ME!!!. The last 5 min were for conclusion.

After the GD we had to wait for PI.
As ours was 12-1pm so lunch had started and we waited till 2pm.

PI
PI was 2 on 1. And there were There different places were PI was being conducted. Our batch was having a pretty long PI while others were gettin over in 5 min. The first guy in our batch was grilled a bit for 25 min. He was a fresher and was asked about Globalisation, Liberalisation, Recession How, Why??.(Freshers are asked on essay topics which they have written in form). After that another was for 20 min. And mine was for approximately 15 min.(But i dont know exactly how much time passed as we never realize, how much someone has grilled us!!).
As i was having work experience, i was asked much on work ex. and why after engg. and such a good technical record In GE healthcare do u want to do an MBA !! Dont u think ur work ex was a wastage?? dont u think that u r wasting time doing an MBA.
Final question was how is Globalisation affecting the enviornment air, land or water. Select one and ans. I selected water ans spoke about oil slick, ramsetu and dhamraa port(tata venture, affecting olive ridley turtles).

So finally after the interview gets over a signature has to be taken on the hall ticket from the management.

IF ur centre is registered for ARC. Carry originals and attested copies wid u so that it is completed on the same day.

WELL BEST OF LUCK those who are preparing for gd/pi.

Good Blogger....frm quite a long time....

One of the chief motivator for creating this fabulous blog.....

Candidate can contest frm two places at the same time!!!

Lalu prasad yadav recently contested frm two places saran and patliputra.

He lost in one place and won in other.

In india a candidate can contest from two places max. in the lok sabha elections.

Lalu must be very thankful to this policy or else he wud have had to sit in his cocoon for 5yrs!!!

My vote counted

I was really shocked to see that kirit somaiya lost sanjay dina patil by just 3000 votes.

I voted for NCP as i wanted secular congress at the centre.

Watching the results i believe that my vote was in that 3000 which brought the change...i win..

I am very happy that the proper decision has come as if it was for the third or the fourth front to form the government, it wud have worked for just a few months and i am saved from gettin my another finger nailpolished!!!(These election guys they put ink on your entire nail as if nailpolished).

cudos to congress and feathers on their cap....

How I met your mother....
