Overall i felt it was okay okay performance. I request you all that dont keep anything in your mind, Go free, tell what ever comes to your mind at first instant.They can easily understand if you are trying to makeup things.They were noting how fast and how truly you are answering for question. Relax, Go and talk just how you talk to your freinds. You will rock it.

Group Discusion
GD started at around 3.30 (as we are the last batch)
This was my first GD , the topic which the gave is ‘Marketing in banking sector‘(very common topics for all the batch, No CA topic in GD ). It was okay level and it went for 15 minutes.
TIPS(GD) : Listen guys, Don’t ever think others are talking good than you, as far as my observation you need have good eye contact with all persons in the group. It matters the way you talk not what you talk..very important thing is they were giving 1 min. time for every individual to talk about the topic at last..here is what you need show your identity, As i saw everybody was talking only about Pros(advantages) in marketing, nobody talked about disadvantages of marketing, so finally i concluded with some points in disadvantages.
So what ever the topic they gives you, most of the people will think only on one side, but if you think something different in it… It will helps you to show you as a unique personality.That was my GD experience. All the best to you all.
Regards,
NARENDIRAN C
