The interview experience was good and informative regarding the questions. Basic knowledge is essential to pass. It starts with fundamental gate questions and requires genuine research ideas for success. Professors create a comfortable atmosphere but will challenge you if you deviate from the basics, so be cautious.

The first stage for selecting Ph.D. candidates in Biosciences was a joke. They didn't ask for any essays in the application. In stage 1, they asked 5 multiple-choice questions on a video call, which was the basis for selecting candidates for the Ph.D. position. The interview started before the assigned time and was over within minutes. I am highly unsatisfied with the whole process. They just test your memory and not the research acumen required for Ph.D.
