Abstract:
A Group discussion is a formal discussion which involves six to fifteen participants who sit in a group to discuss a topic or a case given for this purpose. It is a methodology used by an organization to gauge whether a candidate possesses certain personality traits and or skills that are desired of him. It is like a football or hocky game where all the players pass the ball to their team players and aim for a common goal. In these games, the team which has better coordination and skills wins the game and so is the case with GDs. In GDs, the group members have to interpret, analyse, and argue, so as to discuss the topic or case threadbare as a team.
