What GD Tests
GD observes clarity of thought, knowledge, confidence, listening ability, social adjustment and influence in a group.
Good Participation
Make relevant points, support them with examples, listen to others and help the discussion move forward.
Mistakes to Avoid
Do not shout, repeat points, cut everyone, stay silent, or speak without understanding the topic.
Cavalier approach: Learn the task, practice under real conditions, get feedback, and improve natural behaviour instead of memorising fixed answers.
