Recommended By 14 SSB Allahabad For TES-33, Merit List Rank 4. Hello, friends. This is SHUBHAM SINGH, I am a dropper and I completed my 12th in 2014. I was doing the so called IIT-JEE preparations but never interested. I was passionate about joining Indian Army and I was doing the engineering coaching just for the sake of a secure future. I got recommended in my 3rd attempt. Four days back I got conference out from 10+2 B.Tech Navy entry from Coimbatore. I have a feeling that Direct entry candidates are huge in number and vacancies are very less and it is really difficult to portray your personality there. According to me, the best entries are NDA and CDS only.  It is my view but for you aspirants I would suggest that an opportunity is an opportunity and one must never miss it. GO GRAB IT.

DAY 1: SCREENING TEST (192 candidates reported)
VERBAL AND NONVERBAL TEST
The very first test was a verbal test and it went pathetic. I attempted 30 questions only. The second test was NonVerbal, and I attempted all 60 questions. That one was easy.

Tip:  The tip for Verbal and NONverbal Test is only PRACTISE.
PPDT AND GD
I wrote an action packed realistic story. Our group had 19 candidates. My narration was excellent and I think it is the most important part of Screening. It is the first impression you make in the minds of assessors. The GD was full chaos and all were fighting as if they wanted to kill each other. You must be knowing what happens in the group of repeaters. The assessors also understood it so they divided our group into 2 halves. Then our GD went smoothly. I was able to add 3-4 points. And 3 candidates got screened in from our group. Total 26 candidates out of which there were 3 already recommended candidates.

Tip:    The most important part of screening is the Story. Always try to dramatize your story and it must be realistic.  The first to observe in a picture is the background and the foreground (No. of characters, age, their expressions, mood, etc).

Then comes the GD, the guru mantra for GD is that how smartly you manage your group. For this, go and be friends with the group beforehand and always support your group and the THEME to which the group is approaching. Forget your own story there. 

DAY 2: PSYCH

Here comes the Psych, the most important part of SSB. I wrote some good stories in TAT. I attempted all 60 words and 51 SRT’s. Here quantity of attempts doesn’t matter at all, it is the quality which is most important.

Tip:   Write stories which discuss issues of the country and use your currents affairs knowledge to adjust the theme to the story. Discuss the solutions that what the character did to tackle the problems.

WAT totally involves practice in that time bound. You can get words from a newspaper or any magazine.

SRT’s require practicality. Always think what you would really do in that situation rather than writing a copied response because every person is unique. You may be having a better solution for the given situation.

Above all tips, the best is SELF INTROSPECTION. Make sure that you never contradict yourself.

DAY 3 & 4: GTO TEST

GTO tasks check your group skills and practical thinking so always work with the group. Follow the proper dress code and look well groomed. As said the first impression is the last impression.

Our GD topic was related to MEDIA and ITS ROLE. The second topic was REALITY SHOWS EFFECT to the society. I took a fair participation in the GD. The key is to come with 3-4 good relevant points which contain FACTS AND FIGURES because generally candidates do not know about them and if they know they won’t oppose your points.

PGT, HGT, Snake Race went normally. I stood in the middle and gave 2-3 ideas to move ahead. I just tried to work in a group. I did all 10 Individual Obstacles.

Then there was Lecturette. The GTO asked my name and favorite actress and then to proceed with the Topic. My topic was TOURISM in India. I spoke for 1 minutes only, but I was very confident and gave some good points. You always have to remain confident, no single task is important. You have to be consistent throughout the tasks.

COMMAND TASK

It is very important. Here the GTO actually checks your potential and finally decides whether he will recommend you or not. My CT was a circle one. He increased the difficulties continuously and I gave the ideas everytime. He looked impressed, but he also said that commander you are always coming up with tricky ideas. Come up with simpler ideas as they are most difficult to find.

FGT

I think it is just a formality sake thing. The GTO doesn’t even look what you are doing as he has already made up his mind.

Tip: For these tasks especially I joined a training programme at OLIVE GREENS Chandigarh. They are superb. They have their own GTO ground and the difficulty level there is at par. It is such that when I looked at the GTO ground obstacles at Allahabad, I thought them as the easiest when compared to OLIVE GREENS ground.

INTERVIEW

My interview was held on the 4th day. I was the last one. After completing all GTO tasks, I straightaway went to there. It was 9 am and the Deputy President called me. I entered the room and wished him Good Morning and sat. Then there was a most strange part. The interviewer was just turning pages and not even looking at me. And I was looking at him. He didn’t ask anything for 45 seconds. Then he asks where I am from and few things about the place. I answered. Then he asked all personal questions about friends, teachers, and parents.

Questions

Q1) Tell me the names of your friends and what their fathers are doing?
Q2) 1 quality which your friend has and you don’t: vice versa?
Q3) 1 good quality of your father and 1 quality which you don’t like in him?
Q4) When your father was most happy from you?
Q5) which teachers you like and which you don’t and reasons for both?
Q6) how do you spend your spare time and extracurricular activities you took part in school?

I answered all the questions one after another and he was looking at my body language.

Then he asked few technical questions about Physics and GK questions.
I answered which I knew and which I didn’t know. I clearly said – I don’t know.

At last he asked which of the place you visited at Allahabad and said Thank you.

Tip: Know yourself and have a good understanding about your subject.SSB Allahabad Recommended Candidates

CONFERENCE DAY

I entered the room and wished Deputy President AUR mai baitha bhi nahi he said, any suggestions SHUBHAM. I said, No sir.
Ok, Thank You SHUBHAM.

After leaving the room, I thought, “saala iss baar bhi out kyunki baithne bhi nahi diya aur bhaga diya”

And then the results were announced, the first chest number the officer said was mine. Everyone clapped. I thanked God and my parents. It was the best moment of my life. It was my dream to earn that medical chest number with the PLUS Sign on it.

I was highly determined to join Indian army. I was CO in my earlier 2 attempts. I learned from my mistakes, did introspection, and finally made it.

BELIEVE YOURSELF and NEVER GIVE UP.
