You will need to talk with the former students and mentors of the past GSoC group theory projects about the proposal specifics. I don't personally have much knowledge of the state of the group theory module, so I can't help you much there.
My generic advice (also applies to any other potential GSoC student reading) would be - Take a look at previous successful proposals on the wiki to see what a good proposal looks like. - Focus on your pull request(s) for the patch requirement. We take the patch requirement into high consideration as it shows us how capable you are of actually completing your project. - Try to familiarize yourself with the codebase so that you have a good understanding of what is already implemented, and what will need to be done for your project. - Make sure you've read through and understand our student instructions (https://github.com/sympy/sympy/wiki/GSoC-2019-Student-Instructions) and application template (https://github.com/sympy/sympy/wiki/GSoC-2019-Application-Template). - Interact with the community here, on the issue tracker, and on gitter.
