Avoiding Last Minute Hiccups - GD/PI Preparation

Avoiding Last Minute Hiccups - GD/PI Preparation

The Student Syndrome, as opposed to popular perception, is planned procrastination. For instance, an employee works with full commitment and a mindset to finish his assignment only at the last possible minute before the deadline. This, at times, reduces the potential gains that could have been realized if the due effort was put in earlier. This happens mainly because the perceived value of doing something else outweighs the value of working now, putting one under stress and pressure at a later stage.

Aman Vaishnav's Interview Experience At SIBM Bengaluru

Aman Vaishnav's Interview Experience At SIBM Bengaluru

After giving many interviews this year and after being thoroughly prepared for the GD-PI-WAT process at SIBM Bengaluru, I thought nothing could go wrong now on. It all started at 8 AM in the morning, the GD topic and WAT process was simple and had truly made some wonderful points in the process. Now the time was for the PI. The panellist was the same from the GD. They welcomed me and started with a question. "So you have left your job, right? I knew I have to give the reason behind it but as I started, they interrupted me and asked about the thermodynamics's concepts which I answered correctly.

The Perfect Interview Does Not Exist

The Perfect Interview Does Not Exist

More than 1.5 lakh people write CAT every year out of which some 10k-20k people don’t appear for the exam. Of these 1 lakh people lucky few get the calls from IIMs for interviews. A big-time challenge for this lucky herd is to convert the calls. Failing to secure a percentile decent enough to get a call could be disheartening. But not converting your calls is heartbreaking at many levels. A normal candidate began dreaming about studying at his dream b-school since he starts preparing for CAT and these dreams intensify after the call from the ‘dream’ b-school. I couldn’t sleep the night I get the call from my ‘dream’ b-school. Your dreams go to another level. And imagine, if you are not able to convert any of them! All those dreams, hopes, plans, flushed down the chute. So it becomes extremely important for you to crack these interviews. Only they stand between you and your dreams.

How To Prepare For MBA Interviews - Tips From An SPJIMR Student

I came across this interesting term ‘GEM’ during my CAT preparation last year. It seems to be the most disadvantaged group during the MBA admissions. Going by available facts, it definitely seems true - general engineers (especially males) face the toughest competition when it comes to MBA admissions.

And plus, acing an interview is very different from acing the CAT. I would broadly divide the interview preparation into 3 categories -
