GROUP DISCUSSION (GD):

Having completed your graduation by now, I take it for granted that each one of you might be aware of what a Group Discussion means. Normally a group discussion is conducted based on a particular current Topic in general terms. But in the case of HPUBS MBA Admissions, GD is based on a Case Study. The students are provided with a printed paper on which a Case is typewritten. 10-15 minutes will be given to study the Case and reach out an appropriate solution to the problem discussed in the Case. The cases provided for study are mainly related to various realms of Management, preferably Human Resource (HR).
