Interview Experience
Yes, every student must have a clear CAT exam upon which he or she was asked to fill the application form. After which, the students were called to sit for the GDPI session. During my time, the topic of my GD was 'Is Cryptocurrency the new future'. We were given a rime of 10 mins in which every candidate had to speak individually. The last round was PI which was conducted by the faculties member itself. The final shortlisting was released a few weeks later
