B-Schools: Your GD/PI tips

To all those who have got the calls for GD and interviews, I have the following tips:
1. Appear smart and fresh for the GD & interview
2. In the GD, maintain your cool, posture, and modulate your voice well. Admission coordinators look for team players, candidates with original ideas & analytical skills, and quick thinkers.
3. Do not attempt to garner attention during the GD. Be your natural self.
4. If you are carrying your certificates / degree etc. for the interview, ensure to organize them well.
5. Do not fake up your answers in the interview. Be honest if you do not know the answer.
6. If you have any work experience, be well prepared to answer questions pertaining to your work. Typically, an interview might go for 30 minutes.
7. Thank the interview panel while closing the interview, but do not appease them at any stage.
8. If you have your opinion and views, be firm, but not arrogant. They sometime try to provoke you or stress you out.
All the best, and more later on tough (yet, wonderful) life at campus.
