Friends, I am DEVDUTT(CHEST NO.9) from Haryana pursuing engineering from BRCM college of engineering and Technology BAHAL ,HARYANA got recommended from 12 SSB Bangalore on 18th March. Now I am sharing my ssb experience with you so that your zeal to join defence become strong and stronger.One of my senior(NAVEEN SIR) pursuing Mtech made a team of some defence interested candidates and we practised 2-3 hrs daily after classes,held mock interviews,practised WAT and SRT ,TAT and discussed the outcome from each,practised for GPE from internet, we used to get up at 4:30and did the assigned temporary obstacles in the campus for PGT,HGT,CT and applied the ideas differently).
Actually, I got a call on 11 Feb 2016 but due to some health problem I requested to pospond the date and got the fresh date (13th march). I started my journey from my village and covered a distance of nearly 2400km and reported on 13th march .I met with the candidates of different states and learned much from them. 203 candidates reported there and 48 got screened in.
SCREENING:- OIR was easy attempted all,then the real crux was to analyse the picture .In the picture i perceived that two people (one wearing a police uniform and other was not clear) were scrabbling a man who is part of some fighting).I made the story relating to clash between the students of two colleges and how the inspector solved the problem.
TAT:- I made very natural and original stories and blank story was about my preperation of ssb. Practised nearly 100 pictures on different and discussed with each other(SSB team in college).
WAT:-I attempted 57 words ,made simple and observationl sentences.
SRT:- I solved 41 solutions , practised much SRT available on internet and from the books availabes
SD:- I prepared the SD in advance and practicised for at least 50 times .I completed this in nearly 12 minutes.
So I was satisfied with my performance in psychology because whatever I planned before the ssb ,it was executed successfully.
INTERVIEW:- I had my interview in the afternoon and went for nearly 50 min. Maximum questions he asked from family (nana-nani also),friends,college life,about my village,education,daily routine,some technical also,games and sports,achievments etc etc. I gave answer of each question clearly and confidently.
So I was happy with the performance in the interview
So in the night nearly 35 candidates gathered in the room and I chanted poems and jokes and played MAFIA game till late hours.
Then we had our GTO on the next day performed average in all tasks but the shocking thing was that GTO was looking to be not interested with our group because he didn’t permit us to complete a single obstacle and was not keeping his file with him also,he was speaking ok next we finished our PGT and HGT in 10 minutes
Then completed other tasks and did 14 IO, performed awesome in command task.
All the three tests finished in first two days and in the rest days we visited different places malls,parks,streets etc…
CONFERENCE:-My conference went for nearly 7 min. The deputy president ask about the stay,visited sites,rate yourself in three tests.I answered 9 in psychology.8.5 in interview, 8 in GTO. He got chance to ask a question that Devdutt tell me the one solid reason how you analyse 8.5 this 0.5 is pinching me, it should be either 8 or 9.Then somehow I convinced him the conference got over.
WE 6 GOT RECOMMENDED FROM 48 AND 3 WERE FROM MY GROUP
WE THANKED THE GTO .
I made good friends from recommended boys and women candidates and shared good moments, also chanted poems on SSB experience and patriotism
Our medical started on 25th due to HOLi vacations and completed on 1st April and declared medically fit and now I am waiting for joining letter and my elder brother also got recommended for CDS (IMA) on 31 march 2016. So two recommendations in one month is a big thing for us and the family.
