First of all the institute name is IMT or some thing don't know why they call it HMATC (at least no cab driver was able to tell where this place is) .
It started with a document verification process, where an old chap was calculating your marks to third decimal accuracy.
First round was an essay the topic was "Sanity it the process of defining real from unreal. We need a new definition now". They gave us 4 pages to write 2 minutes to think and 12 minutes to write.
Than they divided us in 3 panels for GD. My panel had 7 members. They asked to sit on some predefined sequence. A case is given to us which discussed influence of weather and culture on attire. Indian man prefers western attire now while woman still go with traditional. Do indian man need to learn from woman. We discussed every thing except this learning part. I tried to bring the discussion on this but ahh the lady called stop by than :(.
