Admission Experience

Did you avail of the benefit of any reservation?

Anwesha Nayal: “General (No reservation)”

Describe the general setting of WAT / GD (if any)?

Anwesha Nayal: “So, thanks to the pandemic, we had our WAT session online. Giving you a brief about the process, we had a walk through of the entire process on a zoom link shortly before the actual WAT. Sir I-dont-remember-his-name warned us about the all the malpractices the previous batch had used. Apparently, they had copy pasted wrong content from Google on their WAT. That got me wondering what is it that you'd find on Google about an abstract topic. But that was dismissed quickly, as I had my own mountain to conquer for the moment.The WAT was supposed to be for 20 min in which you'd be provided a link of a Google form where in you'd have enter your deets and then read the case statement and provide your opinions/solutions.. My one only tip for the upcoming aspirants would be learn to organise your thoughts and put them in writing, that's all you'd need to ace this.”

What was the WAT / GD Topic?

Anwesha Nayal: "Though I don't have a precise memory, but of little bit I can recall. My topic was on the lines of the impact of terrorist attack on the lives of an average human being.”

What were your answer/points put forward for the WAT or GD respectively?

Anwesha Nayal: “Due to some technical glitches, I wasn't about to elaborate much on the ideas I had in the initial 4 minutes. Though I did capture points that reflected the physical and mental impacts on all stratas of the society and cited a few examples.”
