shown and lack practical sense.

Do This

Write a natural and realistic story that comes to your mind on seeing the pic-

ture. The moods, etc of characters should be stated as observed.Positive

thinking means that even if the photo shows something adverse, or tragic,

the candidate foresees that in the future things will become all right, with

the main character playing a proactive part in the same. The main character

should be proactive and do something for the betterment of the existing sit-

uation.

Discussion in PPDT

Candidates are organised in groups of 14-15 for group discussion. Each can-

didate is required to narrate his story by turn. After everyone has narrated

his/her story the group is required to discuss the same and arrive at a con-

sensus story. The group is required to nominate a leader who has to narrate

the story on behalf of the entire group.

Do This

• Narrate your story confidently in a clear voice in about one minute (for

repeater batches-40 sec is safe).
