How I Cracked NDA SSB Interview In 1st Attempt

Hello, I am Bhushan and I belong to Nagpur, Maharashtra. This was my first attempt for SSB at 11 SSB Allahabad after my 4th attempt for written which I cleared for NDA 138. I passed my class 12th in the year 2016 and was preparing for my JEE entrance exam which i never wanted to do but went with engineering as a back up.

After written results were announced i consulted my friend who got recommended for 137 course of NDA and he suggested me to go for coaching so I took coaching for SSB. As it was my first SSB i was really confused but as i always wanted to become a Army Officer i took no chance and was preparing for my SSB with full dedication. Our reporting was on 17 Jan and we got our documents verified that day.

SCREENING

OIR was easy and i answered every question in that as it had no negative marking. Next was PPDT and the picture shown to us was very hazy but i wrote a story on a college boy who helps a lady. My narration was not EXCELLENT but GOOD and discussion was a fish market.

PSYCHOLOGY
I was able to complete all stories in TAT and attempted all words in WAT, 42 SRT’s and completed my SD, so i was satisfied with my psyc test.

GTO
We had a healthy GD the fish market thing was still there but not that much and it was ok. Next we had GPE and i was able to finish my individual plan and we our successfully gave our group plan. My lecturette did not go well and i spoke for only 2 minutes. Rest everything i performed good in my GTO series.

INTERVIEW
My interview was held on 4th day after GTO and it was good except the part he embarrassed me when he asked me about my favourite subj i said CS and Physics. His first ques was what is bubblesort and i was like what just happened because i was not expecting that but i answered somehow about sorting but he said bhushan this is sorting just tell me what is bubble sort that time i said i don’t know sir then he was smiling and i was also smiling on my foolishness but i prepared ques related to myself so i was confident when he was asking those questions.

After my interview i thought that i would not get recommend so i informed my parents that i might not get recommend due to that fav subj part so i told them to d my reservation and my father said i’ll not do it and don’t wry you’ll make it.

CONFERENCE
Now we went on with a horrible closing address but during conference i was asked how was my stay, then i was asked that which technique i think that i need to improve on ? So i said Sir, Interview. So he asked me why ? so i said that there were some questions i was not able to answer so he asked me to pick one ques and answer it so i did it. The last question was any suggestions to improve the facilities here. I said no and my conference was over.

As i heard that the one whose conference is not long he is either recommended or not recommended so i thought i will not make it and when during the result the officer asked that who thinks they will make it raise their hand everybody raised their hands except me.
But when i he announced the result chest no. 23. I stood up called my roll no and name and was very happy.

SSBCrack has been always motivated me and it plays equal role in my success as i used to practice my psyc from it thank you for all the suggestions and motivation.
