Skills you’ll practise
This course is for
Final-year students and first-time GD candidates. Your first group discussion should not be the one that decides your placement. This course teaches the six moves every GD panel scores: a twenty-second opener, a clean entry into a running discussion, building on another speaker, disagreeing without heat, using facts without bluffing, and a summary that the panel remembers. The tutor voices three other participants by name and a moderator, so you practise against real interruptions. It ends with a full twelve-minute simulated GD scored against the course outcomes.
level
No prior speaking practice needed. Short sentences, lots of repetition, Hindi support whenever you need it.
