My gd/pi

I had my gd/pi at Sydenham today.

I walked in late and was take to a room . gd/pi call later was checked and I was given a questionarie and a cardboard with my roll no. on it.

1) They never asked for the undertaking
2) I got no marks for work-ex. I have 1 year and 10 mths experience with TCS but those guys didn;t give me any marks. They are given some circular which says that trainee or probation period is not work-ex. I even met director of Sydenham regarding this . Damnnnn

GD:

12 ppl is a very small room and two topics were given :
1) Nuclear war : is it preventable ??
2) for companies, is degrees or performance more imp ??

They did a poll and majority ( including me) supported the 2nd. The most relaxed and uninteresting GD ever . The panel wanted evryone to speak so they kept on interupting ppl who were talking continuously so that other get chance to speak... very irritating . Ppl who havn't spoken much were told to summarize. Overall the girls destroyed the boys bigtime.

Time : 12 mins

PI :

I was told to complete my questionarie and wait . Panel was a old man and a middle age lady ... both very sweet and helpful.
Questions:
1) Why MBA , which course ,which college
2) Few questions abt TCS and software industry
3) Favourite company , some questions about my resume
4) Strength , weakness and normal stuff.

Time : 20 mins.

Totally chillax atmosphere , no need to panic.
