Friend, this article is about various GD topics. As we know G.D. is first test of the GTO series. It is an informal discussion among group members on a certain topic. There are two discussions in first discussion candidates get choice and in second discussion candidates don’t get any choice. Generally both the topics have 3 subtopics. For both discussion 15 to 20 minutes are given to discuss.
This shows the candidate’s knowledge of Current affairs, history and social awareness as well as his/her grouping skills like group coordination, listening power, concentration, communication, speaking tactics, patience etc. Crux of the GTO is knowledge and communication skills. And good thing is that both can be developed by working over it. I am enlisting few topics here to help aspirants in preparation.these are as follows
