Body language does matter. It is an occasion of Group Discussion. It is not interview. The basic thing the evaluators would like to see is that you present the topic analytically, briefly and meaningfully with an aptitude to take group in the right direction with a constructive flow reaching the conclusion in time.

Your body language should be such that it is not distracting. It should never be attractive. It must speak that you have etiquettes as well as manners. You must know how to present yourself in a group of educated and cultured persons.

So should be reflected from your dress. Look simple, original, natural and comfortable.

Be careful

alt

  • Need not show anything that is not required.
  • Never choose bright colours, they distract.
  • Do not use strong perfumes.
  • Do not bite your mails.
  • Never try to pose what you are not.

Be sober

alt

  • Try to be sober in all the respects. Be sober in your posture and gesture. Sobriety and simplicity pay a lot in all the walks of life except very few that are not of our interest any ways.
  • You should not slouch in the chair. Have a comfortable posture that does not hinder anyone to look at other or in presentation.
  • Be sensitive enough to observe whether your posture or gesture is creating any problem for any of the members.
  • You should sit in your chair as a responsible person throughout the discussion. Do not stretch your legs much or keep shaking them. Few persons have some very special bad habits. They go on heads showing approval or disapproval, keeping pen or pencil in the lips or under teeth while listening very carefully and so on.

These types of any habit distract. Not good.

  • If you feel any inconvenience due to gesture or posture of any other member, either correct yourself if possible otherwise request him to help you see, listen or present properly.
  • When you speak or listen, always have soft eye contacts. It should not appear that you are gazing at any time. You should not look down or upwards while speaking or listening to anyone.
  • You need to care much about the evaluators, if they are sitting there. You should be careful about your right presentation only. Never address them or make any eye contact with them. Listen them carefully whenever they say some thing.
