Round: Group Discussion
Experience: It wasn't exactly a group discussion. It was more of extempore. We were given ten minutes to note down points on the topic and each of us had to speak for two minutes. And then at the end there was a brief discussion on the arguments.
Tips: Don't start making philosophical arguments. You are expected to give technical arguments and reasons.
Don't contradict yourself ever. Make your stand on the topic clear and stick to it.
Don't cut off people in the middle. Hear them out.
It's not about who is speaking the most. It's about who is most effective.
