Introduction
This is the time when you all are done with the exhaustive examination process and are all set for second phase of admission process for the coveted B-Schools. No matter how well you have performed in the written exam, until and unless you prove your mettle in the second phase and show to the panels that you are the best amongst the best; all the hard work put till date might not be enough.
