Group Exercise

There are two stages in the Group Exercise (GE) round. Every group is assigned a task to solve in a specified amount of time during the first phase. The purpose of this activity is to assess the candidates' teamwork and coordination skills. The goal of this task is to demonstrate teamwork and leadership abilities.

Group discussions make up the second part of GE. The candidates are divided into groups, with a different topic of debate assigned to each group. They are given five minutes to come up with points pertaining to the topic, after which the floor is opened for discussion. The evaluation criteria of this round include the applicants' capacity for communication and convincing others, as well as clarity of thoughts and anticipation.

10

Personal Interview

At SIU, the Personal Interview (PI) phase includes asking candidates questions about their backgrounds and objectives for the future, just as at other universities. 'Why MBA?', 'where do you see yourself in the next 5 years?', 'how good are your leadership skills?' are some of the most often asked questions. This round evaluates the candidate’s communication and problem-solving skills.

30

Written Ability Test

In this phase, candidates will compose a brief essay on the topic given to them as part of an essay writing test. Occasionally, a video is shown to the candidates, who then have to create a narrative around it. The purpose of this round is to evaluate the candidates' interpretative and analytical skills.
