How was your interview?<\/b><\/p>\n

It was longer than average as I was the first candidate for the morning session. They started out by asking me to introduce myself and further asked me why I was going for PGDBA, even though I was already working in Analytics. The interviewers later moved on to other topics. There were more questions related to academics than I expected but it was a balanced interview.<\/span><\/p>\n

2: \u201cDo you know about the correlation coefficient? Explain.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

3: \u201cWhat is the null hypothesis? Why is it called the null hypothesis? What is p-value and what is its use?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

4: \u201cSolve (x^2 -3x +5)^(x-4) = 1″<\/span><\/p>\n

What academics questions did your panel ask?<\/b><\/p>\n

4: Second law of thermodynamics?<\/span><\/p>\n

5: How does knocking occur in IC engines? How do we determine if the fuel has anti-knock properties?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Did the panel ask you questions on general awareness or general knowledge?<\/b><\/p>\n

Yes. The panel asked: \u201cDo you follow politics? Isn’t politics propagated through social media bad? Do you know about an echo chamber? Compare an echo chamber to politics propagated in social media.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Did you feel that your interview was a stress interview?<\/b><\/p>\n

No, it wasn\u2019t.<\/span><\/p>\n

How did you prepare for the entire process \u2013 written exam, application, and interview?<\/b><\/p>\n

Written Exam – Had been preparing for CAT at the same. Studied +1,+2 NCERT texts.<\/span><\/p>\n

Knew Analytics and ML due to my work background.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

If you were following AI Monks during the preparation, did you feel AI Monks was useful at any point in time?<\/b><\/p>\n

I didn’t follow AI Monks, but I am sure that if I had, it would have been of more benefit to me while preparing for the interview for PGDBA.<\/span><\/p>\n
