1. Believe in yourself:
Self esteem and remembering positive memories is necessary before the Group discussion and Personal Interview. Psychologists believe that it is not actually public speaking that makes people feel the anxiety but the ridicule and comments of people in case they commit a mistake. They believe that when they go in front and make a speech, they will blunder their way through it and suffer from the shame. Those who believe they will always be nervous will always be nervous.

2. Credibility:
In any Group Discussion or Personal Interview, the panel always CAREFULLY evaluates whether the statements you make are emotional or factual. Uses of facts and figures do help provided you support with a source. Don’t shoot figures on the economy if you don’t remember where you read them. The panel may ask you later to support your statements in the interview.

3. Memorable:
Remember this is a Group Discussion/Interview of a management institute. The panel wants to hear your solutions to the topic or question at hand. Don’t merely crib about the state of the economy, politics, lack of infrastructure etc. Focus how you would go about solving the problems of the economy. This will immediately be noticed by the Group Discussion/Interview Panel

4. Preparation:
This cannot be stressed enough; a Group discussion is designed to test what you don’t know. So effectively you have to prepare for everything. One very useful tip is to read books or listen to audiobooks about management gurus and their tips on strategy, execution, personal effectiveness, goal setting. These are the things that your Group Discussion/Interview panel themselves read, listen and refer to for guidance. Showing that you have an avid interest in these topics will immediately make them like you.

5. Professional execution:
Make sure that your responses sound well structured and planned. Begin with a solid opening (i.e. use relevant quotes from famous people), have a good viewpoint of the topic and a memorable conclusion. The use of actual problems in the economy and your solutions for them will always be taken in a positive note by the group participants and the Group Discussion panel.
