A day at SIBM

The Entrance results are out!
Fortunately I have got a call from SIBM. Happy! At least I am getting an opportunity to attend a GD and PI. I donno how far this gonna click! But everything is a part of learning curve in the life, hopefully not a decreasing curve !!!
The journey to pune was a hectic task probably ll in another blog! But the selection process was indeed good rather different.
Jan 30 2007, 8.20 Am, many luxury car were parked on one side of a senapati bapat road and ppl assembled pointing to one building !!! symbiosis viswan bhavan next to sibm campus!
After saying goodbye! To my friend who came to drop me I aligned myself in that already formed queue!
“Is this the line for SIBM gd and pi call” asked to the person standing in the front
“I too hope so but didn’t ask to anyone” came the reply
Just smiled at him with thanks!
There were some 2/3 ppl to check the certificates and call latter. After a successful check up!
"Sir you can go to in room no 4, first floor" said the admission coordinator
thought i alone would be there might be PI ?? happy that all the candidates were asked to assemble in the same room.
Group Buddy Rahul Poddar introduced himself to me and asked the Xerox copy of my certificates! As usual I said Rahul ! I need to take Xerox ! With a smile he took my originals to do the needful!
There were 10+ first year students to coordinate the selection process. After that there was a short meeting and a presentation about SIBM. Then we were asked to assemble in a room on the second floor.
An ice breaking session – just a chit chat. Suddenly an SIBMian came and called 3 ppl for interview. We continued our chat! We made a self intro followed by a briefing session by our group-buddy.
In next 1 hr PI for the whole group was done and we moved to GD. It’s a case study! Wow ...!!
->A honest driver leaving the MD at airport takes the car to his home without parking it in office or factory garage. The MD is on leave for the next 4 days. The next morning he takes car back to the office unfortunately stuck a girl. She dies. The court fine Rs 15 K to the driver. Now the Manager has to decide the driver’s future with the company <-
The was an utter chaos – 11 ppl shouting together some ppl voice remained unnoticed too. It all APGD – A Part of Group Discussion - its was a fair performance from my side even the moderators asked me to speak grabbing others chance.
