cutiebutie, can see that you meant well, seeing that you were willing to compromise your position to extend a word of concern.
@scylus: I got more nervous during my grp interview in contrast to the 1-on-1 and management coz it felt more like a chitchat with them, whereas the grp interview literally felt like candidates being judged and the few seconds of self-intro can mean a make/break for each of us. I recalled my knees shaking with the adrenaline but I smiled/laughed alot during the grp interview while talking so as to mask it and not appear uptight instead...lol
I feel ur experience would certainly make you more confident for what's upcoming so all the best for it!
@geraldine: Wouldn't know the exact figure but at stc it seemed 8-9 out of 10 would make it through.

One of them who didn't make it pass was really extremely nervous and alil quiet before entering the interview rm. Tho we all exchanged tips as a group prior to his turn, he still fell short. Imho I think his inability to overcome his apprehension could have affected his poise and ans.
I think being confident of ur ans and comfy with the interviewers would be the best thing. Take it like a sharing session with them; be yourself, smile warmly, joke with them even and you'll probably breeze through without a sweat!
