How to Overcome speaking Hesitation?
In addition we also recommend CAT aspirants to focus on spoken English. If you are currently doing your graduation it becomes lot easier for you to work on it.
CAT aspirant who are doing their graduation are advised to form a group within their friend circle. The purpose of this group should be to facilitate and organize mock Extempore/ GDs/ Interviews/ Debates. The aim of the group should be to provide a platform to its group member where they could improve their spoken English and overcome their hesitation of public speaking.

It could be common room of your hostel/college or room of any of the students.
