Advice from candidates

32 pieces of advice, in their own words. Names removed.

  • Stick to a particular opinion! Either for or against. And the GD would be of just 15 min, and 8-9 students will be speaking. So if you get the chance to speak, politely ask for your turn and finish your point of view in the Second or Third chance itself if not the first. There were a few who didn't even get a chance to speak because some students did a longer conversation.
