IN CONCLUSION
Through this blog, I have tried to experiment with learning.
Instead of giving passages on the concept of a topic, Group Discussion, in this case, I have made use of objective-type questions with options to make you understand the topic faster.
It also instantly prepares you for a test and at the same time gives you pointers to follow if you are participating in a GD.
The one thing imperative here is that you spend some time on each question discussing with your friends on pondering on your own why the right option is right and why other options are not correct.
What are your thoughts?
