%ile: 99.89&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The day started badly. I lost balance and fell off my bike while taking a U turn. I was hoping the GD/PI will be better. GD was ok , PI was horrible.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;GD:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;Topic: Case study involving Susan , a conservative religious Christian girl who is attracted by army life. She marries her childhood friend - Navin , an army officer against the wishes of her parents. After some time , she realizes army life is not so idealistic , as imagined by her. She comes to know that her husband has committed excesses and had an illicit affair when on posting in N-E. What should she do ? Take divorce ?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Number of Ppl present : 10&lt;br /&gt;Time: 30 minutes to analyse the case and write recommendations followed by 20 mins of GD.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Brief Snapshot of Discussion: A lot of repetition of points. People were like "I agree with you" and would repeat the same point in different words. &lt;img src="http://pagalguy.s3.amazonaws.com/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif" alt="" title="Monsieur Green" class="inlineimg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Other Salient Details:  No Summary was asked .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;PI:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;Panel Members Intro: Both were aged around 40-45. P1 was interested more in History - Civics and P2 in /MIS.&lt;br /&gt;It was all over in 11 mins.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Questions: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;P1 : Tell me about yourself.&lt;br /&gt;P1 : If you are doing so well in your job , why MBA ?&lt;br /&gt;P1 : Why IIM - Indore ?&lt;br /&gt;P1 : What is MIS ?&lt;br /&gt;P1 : What is DSS ?&lt;br /&gt;P2 : Who was Gokhale ? (Gokhale Education Society is mentioned on one of my certis)&lt;br /&gt;P2 : Tell me some freedom fighters of India.&lt;br /&gt;P2 : Who wrote Constitution Of India ?&lt;br /&gt;P2 :What is Federal Republic ?&lt;br /&gt;P2 : What are fundamental rights of Citizen ?&lt;br /&gt;P2 : What are guiding principles of Constitution ?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have no courage to write down the answers. Will probably update my answers later.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The other panel was more interested in Agriculture.&lt;br /&gt;Overall , interviews were short and lasted an average of 15 mins.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have the big one .. IIM-A lined up on Sunday. Just hoping that Sunday turns out to be better than today .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Best of Luck to others .&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7356639263981853203-5814410371522003853?l=invincibleakshu.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://invincibleakshu.blogspot.com/feeds/5814410371522003853/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7356639263981853203&amp;postID=5814410371522003853' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7356639263981853203/posts/default/5814410371522003853'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7356639263981853203/posts/default/5814410371522003853'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://invincibleakshu.blogspot.com/2009/02/iim-indore-gdpi-experience.html' title='IIM - Indore GD/PI experience'/><author><name>Akshay</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09705605828902052060</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
