Let me share the experience of 1st day Interviews:

Got up at 0430 and reached Punjuagutta campus at 0600- i was told already one bus left...... In any case there were plenty of buses leaving every 1-2 min... Reached New campus by 0735am.. You have to get Coupn-indicating your entry for registration.. My no.was 760+.... Total I suppose 1100+ attended on 1st day....After this we have to go registartion based on your coupn no.... First usual chk--rem you have to give all preferences for campus... Then after verify you get a reg slip indicating Batch -A to D- each having 1-30 no... like A!,A2...A30,B1,.. till D30....I Got D?(guess). Mine MP was 1215 while Int was at 1415... (some groups have first Int then MP).. But all process was delayed.. My MP held at 1400 & Int at 1615.. Results which were to dec 0430 onwards were started at0630 onwadrds and last result was at 0820pm... Mine was at 0810pm...I got my 3rd choice..Keep Guessing....

Reg facilities... Arrangements are so..so... not very professional approach..... Too many people -2000+ incl parents may be reason...Food(on payment) OK ..not very costly as well not very tasty....

Now coming to main subject....

MP-- Two faculty members were there.. and they were asking 1-2 Qs to each candidate.. Timing is critical..be aware on this aspect....Most of my batchmate didnot done well..i suppose every body mug it up & throw on audience.. this approach is not OK...

Int-- 3 penalists-- I was asked mainly from Academics--rest GK-- who is cahirman of Planning Commission; what P stands for P Chidambaram; ...

Other known Qs (to other candidates)-- What is father's exact job profile; How many monuments you have seen in Hyd/Delhi- which is oldest; who is Gov of AP; Pascal Law; E-mail Protocol (SMTP-this is answer!!!); ... Any Qs.. most of aspirant were not happy with their perf in Int!!!!!!!!!!!!

Results... All campuses I heard abt-incl Nagpur.. Very Few Hyd..some more for Gurgaon.. some Rejections.. some waiting lists... Too many students.. Every one cannot be adjusted.

So finally started at 0430 from Room & landed at 2215... All the Best
