GSB Interview prep

ZERO blog hits !! I now know for sure that I am neither original not interesting.
I think I will now start bullying my wife and kid, and hell even those guys who call themselves my "friends" to read my blog and post comments !!

coming to the point, my GSB interview is scheduled for next month and, quite surprisingly, I am feeling pretty relaxed and even. Gotta shake myself into that mood....

For me, what's most important is to bring myself out into the open before the adcom. I feel people get seriously distracted when talking to me and miss the point too often. This happens because I try too much with my mannerisms and disposition, trying a bit too hard to hide my(real)self. Why it happens is probably because of a slight lack of confidence and focusing too much on what the other person would like me to be and sound like. I would have to keep the committee engaged with what I am trying to say rather than get distracted too much by how I am saying it. And so, being myself with ease and poise is going to be the mantra.

But that is the "said" part - for the "did" part, watch this space after 1st December.
