Hey Everybody!
Greetings from NITIE!!
I am Jasdeep, a student of PGDIE - 39
I am a fresher and a computer science grad
First thing one must remember is that GD is not an elimination round
Secondly, GD's are on very general topic
Try making the first move, if you have a good point, else just make 2 -3 entries in the discussion
Don't try and keep speaking all the time, it doesn't help
Be polite, give others a chance to speak as well
My topic was
"Is Ahinsa the way to combat terrorism"?
People kept general points, each one was given a min to conclude
There's a difference between conclude and summarize
Plz do understand the difference as it will help you gain advantage
PI was pretty easy,
They asked me about myself
Asked me WHY PGDIE
How did i come to know about NITIE
Why am i not interested in joining IIT's when i have a good rank
Did i appear for CAT
(In all you have to convince them that you are very well aware of PGDIE and its your rational decision)
Then they asked me what else except for Academics
My final project (Please be good at a few subjects, they might ask your fav subjects and a few questions may be directed at them, they will be basic, and to test your fundamentals about the subject you like)
also be clear of the role you played in the final project
Thats it
It was pretty cool
Just be confident, answer fluently, and convince them
They're looking for guys who have a good aptitude
And good communication skills
Being fluent in English and confidently answering really helps
The length of interview may vary from 10-40 mins depending on panel
Overall, just come prepared with basics, latest events, lots of confidence and smile
Wish you all the best
In case of specific doubts, feel free to revert back
Thanks
