NITIE GD/PI experience

I am just back from NITIE GD/PI at Mumbai.GD was a massacre.We all have heard of teen-schoolboy turned-mass killers.But I faced one of them in the group discussion.The bigmouth, born in Chandigharh had spoken throughout the GD just for the sake of speaking. 2 more people followed his footprints.So even if I tried for around 6-7 times I could speak for only 1 or 2 times.Finally It got over .
Personal Interview was also unique.There were 5 panelist in the room.First question on describing myself.I spoked about career ,education,strength and hobby.They asked me what you read.I muttered about "Stay Hungry,Stay Foolish",But these masters of Ops hav'nt heard of the book,So I continued about "The monk who sold his Ferrari".They asked me to summerize the book.Then question on Why MBA.One panelist asked me which is the largest manufacturer of Step Up Transformer?I had no clue,So I said that I dont know about Which is the largest but we at TATA motors buys from a local Maharastra based firm.2 nd question-How to decrease Transmission & Distribution losses? 3rd question how we generate 12 V from Spark plug ?I had no idea why he asked me that ?That was a core mechanical question.Who are the suppliers of wiper .I replied that I am looking after Electronics equipments so I can tell you about Electronic suppliers of Tata Motors.I said about some of them.He asked me how you choose a supplier?I replied comprehensively.Then asked me about Vendor rating.I said we do it at TM but I dont know how they do it.They asked me about my opportunity cost of doing MBA.I said about break even in 2 years .Then one of the profs chuckled -some of the student break even in 3 months.I said that's great.asked me about Hobbeys.I said yoga.they asked abut Dhyan Mudra.Shakuntalasana which I could not replied because I havnt done that aasan ever.They asked Who was Shakuntala,which I replied fairly,So one of the panelist was satisfied.The other one asked me what are the other calls I have got?What are tha parameters to decide the b school.I said parameters as quality of peers and faculty.He asked again "faculty and peers "or "peer and faculty"?I said sir I might be disappointing you but Peers first then Faculty.They said sheeepishly no no we are not disappointed,then I justified it by saying that for setting up an enterprize I will need like -minded prople around me so..They said thank you and Best of Luck.In last legs the PI turned into discussion.In toto it was around 18 min long.I came out happy I dont know how it will turn out.Let us wait for the results.
