How to prepare for GD/PI?

For acing the Group Discussion/PI that is conducted by the IIMs following strategies can be followed: Reading the newspaper: What tests your ability to form an opinion and thus it is better to boost your knowledge about the current events of the world and analyze its impact. You can use the SPELT (Social, Political, Economic, Legal, Technical) framework for this. My suggestion would be to use a national daily like Hindu or Economic Times and start reading at least 8-10 articles on a regular basis. Following Blogs: You can read blogs that are written by professors of IIMs, SPJIMR or any other institute of India from where you are sure that the content would be backed by facts and you would get a lot of insights. Analyze you motivation of doing your MBA thoroughly and make sure that you are well versed with your academics and work experience. Finally, take help from your friends and conduct mock interviews and mock GDs amongst yourselves. This would increase your confidence and you would be able to approach the process with much more confidence.

Hi Piyush, keep yourself updated with latest news on the interests you have eg finance. For PI you should know your CV very well and whatever achievements you have mentioned you should be able to explain them and what were your learnings from it.
