There was sectional cut-off also. There were 2 sets of the paper. After an hour, Also I want to mention that cut-off in KEANE Is round about 55 % (very easy to crack this paper )

Then they announced the names of candidates who cleared the aptitude test. I was one of them. They divided them into 15 groups of 10 students each. I was in 11th group.

Our GD topic was "Now a days AMERICA is strengthening its relationships with INDIA, should INDIA go with AMERICAN deals or with RUSSIAN deals".

Then our moderator gave us round about 4-5 minutes. Then he allowed us to start the GD. in GD just be confident and make some relevant points and also you must be a good listener besides being a good speaker. then i also got selected in the GD .
(THIS ROUND WAS ALSO VERY EASY)
