chairperson
thankyou. your interview is over.
overall board was cordial. questions were starting by asking facts or definition and then going into discussion over those concepts. many rapid fire type questions were also asked.
mainly revolved around DAF. Some contemporary issues were asked not much of current affairs.
utility of mocks: few questions were asked already in mocks so helped in better structuring of those answers. It also helped into getting in the zone of interview.
