This is my first post in almost a year. From today I will make it a norm to blog.
This post is for those who are preparing for Interviews at India's leading b-schools. An interview is, usually, a free-ranging conversation. I am sharing my list of important GK areas to have a better crack at b-school interviews.
International Issues – Politics, Economics, & Social
- U.S.: American elections, politics and policies of Donald Trump, violence at U.S. Capitol, names of members of Joe Biden administration.
- China: Belt & Road Initiative (BRI), militarization of South China Sea, political & military muscle-flexing, economic problems in China, aging, repression at home (like crushing of dissent - Jack Ma), Coronavirus related issues.
- West Asia: Recognition of Israel by leading Arab powers; nuclear ambitions of Iran; normalization of relations between Saudi Arabia and Qatar; Yemen conflict.
- Korean Peninsula: Political contrasts between North Korea and South Korea; North Korean nuclear & missile games; South Korea K-Pop culture.
- Assorted Issues: Brexit and its impact on the UK, elections in Uganda, Swedish strategy in handling COVID, and Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.
National Issues – Politics, Economics, & Social
- Indian Economy: GDP growth pangs, problems facing the Indian economy, important facts and figures.
- Farm bills: Highlights and controversial issues.
- Stimulus packages: Highlights and various measures, especially concerning MSMEs.
- COVID: Spread and impact on people, healthcare, governance, and economy (with focus on Mumbai and Kerala models)
- Assorted Issues: West Bengal politics, environmental issues, and infrastructure problems.
This is not an exhaustive list, but I am sure this will provide you with basic preparation issues for interviews at b-schools.
