I have received the call for GAPI to be held in March. Can you give me some advice on how to prepare for the same?

Hello Ashish, First of all, congratulations for getting this chance. Tips for preparation: For GA, you will be given one page case based on which you will have to decide the priority order for the list of activities given at the case itself. Your group will discuss the case to decide the priority order. Every one will get a fair chance to speak. Interview: Prepare your CV points well. you should everything that you have written in CV. Second important thing: Why do you want to join Irma(Get ready to face the tough follow up question. I would advise you to be honest here. Third thing: Read about potential of Rural India, constraints, Impact of demonetization on Rural India(especially agriculture markets). I would advise you to actually talk to some rural people to get a perspective(They will be impressed if you do this). Read about schemes announced in last few years like Fasal Bima Yojna, Jana Dhana Yojna, etc., and its impacts (refer good sources like Mint Article). Best of luck.

Greetings Ashish, A simple suggestion would be, keep it simple. IRMA's personal interview is almost no different from that of any other interview. What you will need though, is much more clarity on 'Why IRMA?', this question generally plays quite an important role. Brush up on your general knowledge, get ready to face questions about your background. As for the PI, it is going to test your ability to analyze (situational) and also your ability to communicate your thoughts. Hope this helps.
