Q. What was your Group

Education?"
Q. Tell us about your
Group Discussion experience?
A. At my time, the group discussion was quite good. Everybody get chance
to speak. One participant was aggressive to speak, but the moderator made him go
quite and gave chance to others also.
Q. How was the
environment during discussion?
A. Environment during Group Discussion was quite good. We were 8 people
in a square room. We were seated in a U-shape. After the discussion, everybody
got chance to summarize.
Q. Describe your
impression of the your team members and overall Group Discussion process ?
A. I was an aggressive team member not a weak member in my group. Also I
had not started the discussion, but I made 3-4 good contribution in discussion,
which changed the flow of discussion and opened up others to think on those
issues also.
Q. Some handy tips that
would be of great help.
A. I think it's good to start the discussion, if you have quite
sufficient points. If you don't have much points, then don't start the
discussion. Because if you don't have sufficient points and if you start the
discussion, then after you speak your points, you will be quiet in remaining
discussion. Also don't speak all your points at once. If you have small number
of points, then speak them at intervals. Also prioritize your points and then
speak.
Q. Were there any set
norms of Group Discussion?
A. No.
