When in a group discussion, rule number 1: Once the GD has begun, there is no moderator in the GD
room. < That does not mean you need to assume the role of one> GD is all about becoming visible in
a crowd. It usually takes a format in which everyone does no t get a desired time to pitch in and
speak. Hence, my experience tells me, the rule number 2: Being on the feet, thinking, thinking and
thinking is the most important thing.
There are two ways of approaching a group discussion:
c. Once entered in late, don’t leave the discussion. Pin in whenever you can for any of the
below three reasons:
i. New direction * * * * *
ii. Add on to the ongoing discussion * * *
iii. Examples/ evidences in favour of what someone else is saying * *
d. Try and summarize!!!!
Do:
1. Be assertive
2. Be aggressive if necessary
3. Look at everyone when speaking, move your head at times
4. Speak as if you have a solid argument to make
5. Speak as if you are convincing others, not arguing with them
6. Look collaborative and compete!!!
