Question: How was your experience in the CET Group Discussion and Personal Interview (GD&PI)?
Answer: CET GD/PI - Centre PUMBA
Group Discussion (GD):
1. Group of 14 students.
2. Three Panellists.
3. Semi-circular seating arrangement.
4. Topic selected: "Management Education in India is a Luxury".
5. Duration: About 15 minutes.
It was a very calm Group Discussion. Everyone had an opportunity to speak, though only 4-5 aspirants made substantial points. I introduced a number of new points which were then discussed by others. All in all, I was satisfied by my performance. However, I scored only 13 marks in the GD.
Personal Interview (PI):
Every candidate is asked to fill-up a form giving his personal details. The form is the same each year. Most of the questions in the interview are based on what you right in the form. My interview was a very comfortable experience. It was the first interview of the day. There were no stressful questions. I was allowed to prove my points. Some general questions, like "Why MBA", "Why Finance", and some questions based on work experience and academics were asked. I scored 15/17 in the PI. No answer is right or wrong in an interview. It is only your confidence and belief that is tested along with your communication skills and smartness.

Concluded.
