Best Trick
Before starting, make a list of all the candidates who are in your group for group discussion, now half of them won't be knowing rules or they some how break them, by there posture, don't involve in discussion with them because they are already out, try to rule out others.
What if you don't know the topic?
Since GD has no fix syllabus it can be anything from anywhere, so there may be situation that you don't know anything about it or you can't understand the topic completely.
For example There may be topic like "INDIA 2020"
Now someone may start with India in Twenty 20 matches, its future, it is quite interesting etc..
but the Topic is India in the Year 2020, what would be the growth rate & how you look India in the year 2020.
The person starting with Twenty 20 matches completely misunderstood the topic, so Don't start if you don't know, let others spic after 1 min when 2 or 3 three of them will speak you will get a rough idea & now you can proceed this will save you when you don't know the topic
