[QUOTE="confusedbird, post: 215303, member: 38007"] Hi guys, I wanted to ask for some advice on how to use this feedback from an AC : You were above average in every aspect of the AC. Only thing is we would have liked to hear more from you during the group discussion aspect of the group exercise. It seemed like your voice was not heard during the exercise and people kept talking over you. We would have liked to hear your ideas more during the discussion aspect like we did during the presentation when questions were being asked (including those meant to throw you off) I did say things like 'to finish my previous sentence....' or 'sorry, can i please get a second to finish my sentence?' or 'I hear your point and that makes sense. I would also like to finish saying my previous point which is important to this discussion.....' I'm not sure how to better handle this in the future especially given the fact that it was acknowledged that there were some 'strong personalities' in my group who took over the conversation every time I tried to say something. I would love to know how you guys would have handled this to be better prepared for next time. [/QUOTE]
