My Welingkar gd-pi experience

7th may, 2010,EDR, Mumbai
Presentation by WE school students. Was pretty boring, nothing impressive.

GD topic: Education n success are co-related.
GD experience: GD went on fine, few good points brought up by all. Bit noisy at times though.
Was satisfactory overall.


Welingkar (WE School) had two interviews for people opting for a biz-design specialization as one of the five preferences in the form.
