Golden Tips for Word Association Test

2
Golden tips of WAT word association test

WAT stands for word association test and it’s the 2nd Psychological test. This test contains 60 different words. Each word is shown through slides for 15 seconds which focuses mainly on candidate’s personality and practice. Candidates are supposed to make out positive sentences on each word shown in the slide. Candidate’s performance depends mainly on “personality” and practice. The time limit for this test is short so a candidate has a very little time to think which drives out the personality of a candidate in the test.

Golden tips to tackle WAT test

  • WAT helps psychologist to understand the real behaviour of the candidate under pressure.
  • WAT totally depends on how you react to words in your real life.
  • A better introspection will help you to know your real personality, your interests, your fears and your weaknesses. By knowing your weaknesses one can work on that and can change them in one’s strengths. It will help you in changing the image of a word in your mind {explained later}.
  • First of all look at the words carefully as it will be shown only for 15 seconds. If you’ll miss even a single word, you’ll miss the whole sequence.
  • As you’ll see the word your mind will form an idea, now it depends on your personality to make a positive idea or a negative idea.
  • Then write a sentence on the idea you have formed. Make sure your writing is legible.
  • There are no negative words, if you’ll look them with a positive approach. Words will work in your favour automatically.
  • Try to practice WAT at your home and make some response sheets. You’ll see the response will automatically will get better and better.
  • You must write at least 6-7 officers like qualities in 60 sentences.
  • Do not use too many sentence on defence forces.
  • Don’t write simple observations
  • Don’t write idioms, phrases, quotations, universal truths. They show lack of original thoughts.
  • Don’t use the word “I or Me” much.
  • Write sentences from human point of view.
Golden Tips for Word Association Test

How to write a positive sentence from a negative word

  • When your reaction to a negative word is positive, it will be easy for you to make a sentence from the word.
  • Form a positive idea from a negative word shown in the slide.
For example– DIE: – Now when we hear die, an image of death comes to our mind. It is natural but a little practice will help you to change the image out of your mind.
Sentence– Indian people are diehard fans of cricket.
Or 
Sentence-With Agni- V, Indian security system becomes a deadly combination.
  • Do not use readymade sentence. This will break the pattern of loop created by psychologist.
  • Practice writing negative words, it will help you in changing the image of those words in your mind.

Examples Of Some WAT

  1. Sacrifice- A person with morals never sacrifice with his principles.
  2. Defeat – A winner defeat his weakness.
  3. Danger- Indian defence is always ready for dangerous situations.
  4. Risk- A winner always ready to take calculated risk.
  5. Worry- A fighter never worries about failures.
  6. War- Indian war of independence got tremendous support.
  7. Problem-Proper planning lead to a easy solution of the problem.
  8. Failure-failures are the foundation of success.
  9. Challange-challanges increase the abilities.
  10. Difficult-difficulties are solved by patience.
  11. Fear- winners bravely face his fear.
  12. Aggressive- A leader patiently deals with his team.
  13. Confusion-leaders have a clear vision.
  14. Weapon- weapon is used for protection.
  15. Hijack- commandos are trained for hijack.
From the examples, you can understand how to change the image of the word in your mind and if you’re able to change the image of negative words from your mind, then you’ll be able to tackle your WAT test easily.

The Right Time to Start SSB Preparations

The Right Time to Start SSB Preparations

What is the right time to start preparing for an SSB interview? This is a question which haunts in the mind of every SSB Aspirant at one or the other time. Well so this article will help you in choosing the right time for starting your SSB Preparations.

I have seen people who prepared for only a month succeeding and yet another class who have prepared for years and not made it. So as such there is no time to start the preparation, this is what you’ll think now. No but definitely there is a time. The earlier you start them the better. One more thing the quantity of time never matters for preparations, what matters is the quality of time you put in and how sincerely you are preparing.
The OLQ’s which are the most important aspect of SSB can’t be developed in a day. They can only be developed by putting in a good amount of quality time.

ssb+interview

Observe-Analyze-Adopt

This is the mantra of getting success in SSB. You have to first observe the OLQ’s what they are and how many of them and in what extent they are present in your personality. You have to observe the Personality of an officer and compare yourself to his/her personality. Then comes the analysis part, now you have to analyze that what is the amount of OLQ’s which are missing in you, and you have to find out ways to develop them. Imagine yourself as an officer and then think what is missing in you. Then comes the adopting part. Adopt these OLQ’s in your personality.
So the right time to prepare for SSB is the time when you get to know what your aim is, the time when you decide that yes I have to be an Officer. Defence can’t be put as an option in career; you’ll get in only if you have made it the first priority. Making it the topmost priority in your life will always urge you to prepare well for it. Remember that even for a post of a very small private job there are a hundred more who are there to compete, hence in SSB there are always a lot more people who have put in all their efforts to get into it, so it is always the survival of the fittest.
You have to concentrate and prepare for SSB, from the day you decide what your aim is, i.e. Fauj. Give ample amount of time to know yourself, and analyze your positives’ and negative. Remember you can’t fake it in SSB so either you have the personality they want or you don’t.  It is important to become a kind of person who is suitable in reality instead of faking it. For eg if you are lazy and have a habit of getting up late then you must try to change and be lively and active, because if you are not and you are telling a lie in SSB that you are active and blah-blah then also you’ll be caught by the Interviewer or the Psychologist. So it’s better to be the desired kind of person instead of lying there

Start preparing now! Its better late than never

Developing a Wonderful Speaking Skill

1
Developing a Wonderful Speaking Skill

Having a good speaking skill will help you a lot throughout your SSB as well as your whole life. An error free speech, with a good tone and a good pitch is not liked by whom? Speaking power will sail your boat thoroughly through the storm of Lecturette, GD, Interview Conference and a lot of more things very smoothly. Hence there are a lot many benefits of having a good speaking skill. Here are some things which are essential for a good speaking skill and you must keep these things in mind to have a winning speaking style.

Developing a Wonderful Speaking Skill

  • Watch Your Tone: Your tone that is the intensity of your voice plays a major role. If you are having a very loud voice then you may appear rude and if you are having a very timid voice then you might not be heard at all. Hence practice your tone well. You can ask any of your close one to listen you speaking and then tell you whether you are sounding okay, loud or weak.
  • Maintain Your Posture: While giving lecturette or interview or in GD your posture plays a very important role. If you are using too much of hand gestures then it may look very dramatic. Similarly your slouchy body will reflect your laziness and lack of confidence. If you get up from your chair while arguing in GD may reflect your non-adjustable nature. Hence maintain a firm and straight posture while speaking; this will automatically enhance your speech.
  • Go slow with the speed: While speaking it is very important that you go neither too slow nor very fast. Hence make it a habit to speak in a proper speed neither fast nor slow. To achieve this also you have to practice well before.
  • Eye-Contact: Maintaining an eye contact while speaking is very important. Imagine when somebody is speaking to you and looking somewhere else, how will you feel? Eye-contact reflects your confidence. Make it habit to speak looking directly into the eye of the listener.
  • Choice of word and content: Your choice of words should be appropriate and easy. If you are using too fancy words and nobody is able to understand they’ll lose interest. Similarly the content which you are speaking must also be appropriate and relevant. Like in GD or lecturette speak only on the thing you know well, speaking merely for the stake of speaking is not advisable. One more important thing is that if you are choosing any word to be included in what you are speaking, then be sure about the correct meaning of the word, especially in interview.
  • Smile: No it is not necessary to show all your 32 teeth while speaking that will look amusingly funny, but maintain a calm and smiling face is necessary. It will raise your level of confidence and also make you look good. Promise yourself to not frown even when the whole group is against you in GD and even when the Interviewer is banging you!

Benefits of having a good speaking skill

A good speaking skill will help you in tackling GD and Lecturette very confidently. This something which is in our hand and we can practice it well before, so if you are able to express yourself nicely then it’ll give you an advantage over others. In the interview also you’ll feel confident. The best way to improve your speech is to practice lecturette daily.

Preparation for AFCAT 2014

Preparation for AFCAT 2014

As craze for Air force has constantly growing, AFCAT-1 for this year forth will begin 24 February 2014. With rising aspirants preparing for AFCAT each year, the level of competition has also soared. Thus, my article addresses, the format of Exam and the tips for aspiring candidates preparing for this exam.

Preparation for Verbal Ability in English

The level of this section is difficult, even more than the level of CDS. Verbal ability consists in four sections
  • Reading Comprehension
  • Preparation of Vocabulary
  • Error detection and Correction
  • Sentence completion
Preparation for AFCAT 2014
For Reading Comprehension
To comprehend means to understand. Reading comprehension tests involves the ability of a candidate to understand the content of a given passage. This section comprises questions based upon a brief passage usually consisting one paragraph. Generally the level of this section is average and so is easy to score more. Our suggestion for this section is to read as many as passages or articles you could read either from the newspapers or magazines and try to understand the theme.
Tips for reading comprehension
  • Read the passage carefully and detect the theme.
  • Understand the questions carefully.
  • Answer the questions by choosing the right option.
For preparation of vocabulary
Preparation of Vocabulary can be done online or offline. Different words of nearly the same meaning but used differently are called synonyms. A word which is opposite in meaning to the given word is called Antonyms.
In this type of questions, generally a word is given, followed by four or five alternatives. The candidate is required to choose the word which is the nearest word meaning of the given word. For online preparation, I would suggest vocabulary.com as one of the best website candidates can use to learn more words to add in their dictionary.
For error detection and correction
R S Aggarwal’s objective General English, Arihant’s General English are some of the books you can refer to prepare for Error detection and correction.
For Preparation of sentence Completion
In this section the candidates have to pick the most effective word from the given words to fill in the blank to make the sentence more meaningful and understanding. The only tip for preparing this section is the ability to learn the usage of word in a particular situation.
To comprehend means to understand. Reading comprehension tests a candidate’s ability to understand the content of a given passage. This section involves question based upon a brief passage usually consisting in a paragraph. 

Preparation for General Awareness

Tips for General awareness
General awareness is one of the vast topics and proper preparation is required while preparing for this test. For those who study history subjects from the textbooks, you may find the topics dull and mundane. To resolve this you can browse through the videos provided on the internet based on curriculum of Indian History. As videos are more interesting for preparing History, you can easily understand and quickly recall the events more clearly. We are also enclosing some URLs to help you in the competition. For preparing Current Affairs, we would advise the daily newspapers, magazines. You can also subscribe competition magazines like Pratiyogita Darpan to read more on current affairs.

Preparation for Aptitude

The level of Aptitude is getting difficult in AFCAT, but it’s still the most scoring section in the competition. This section consist Decimal Fraction, Simplification, Average, Profit & Loss, Percentage, Ratio & Proportion and Simple Interest. Any school textbooks can be referred while preparing for this section.

Preparation for Analogy and Classification

This is a section which can lead to negative marking and can decrease your score. The Tip you can follow is to go through as many question as it will help you to understand the different class of questions that comes in the Examination. Try to download some books and practice question.                                               

Preparation for Non- Verbal Aptitude

This section is very easy to compare all other sections in the exam. This can be the most scoring section in the exam. For a better understanding of topics, you can refer textbooks like Arihant or RS Aggarwal. Do well, Good Luck!!!

How to Write Stories in TAT

How to Write Stories in TAT

TAT stands for thematic appreciation testand it is held on the very first day after the screening test. Candidates who clear Phase -1 test, stay for remaining 5 days. They have to undergo the psychology test on the first day.

The psychology test contains
  • TAT
  • WAT
  • SRT
  • Self Description
How to Write Stories in TAT
TAT is the first test of phase -2 screening. It contains 11+1 pictures. The first 11 pictures contain a series of slides on which you’ll have to write stories on. And the last slide will be a blank slide out of which you can write any story but make sure the story will have your life experiences or problems you have faced and how you overcame those problems. One gets 30 second to see the picture and then 4 minutes for writing a story around it.
TAT is test of your imagination. It’s not a test for beauty of expressions, so, do not use heavy-duty words and do not try to overshow your ideas through writing. You just have to make a story around the picture.
  • The psychologist will test your personality using TAT, WAT, SRT, and self description.
  • All the tests are used for analysing your personality and to check whether you have officers like quality.
  • Always remember, the answers of TAT, WAT, SRT and self description are compared with one another to find out the real personality of the candidate.

Golden Tips for writing stories in TAT

  • First, look at the pictures carefully showing on the screen and relate to the pictures to form an idea in your mind about the situation.
  • Most likely, it is always easy to form an idea to drive it with a positive approach and then write a story on that idea
  • Write story on that idea which comes to your mind at the very beginning.
  • Each story must have a central character with whom you can identify with. The hero should act in a normal manner to find out the solution of the problem.
  • The story should have some supporting character that can help the main character to come out of the problem.
  • Do not write pre-conceived stories, because the pictures stories are set to an accorded pattern. And if one misses or skips through the loop, the psychologist can easily trace that your story does not follow the psychological pattern which can get you out.
  • To narrate the story, use names of people in your group as the central character. And do not use RAM, SHYAM, SITA, and GEETA as the main character instead.
  • The stories should always reflect your personality. As it will be crosschecked in the WAT, SRT and self description.
  • FOR EXAMPLE- If in a story, you are writing that X is a sportsperson then you should also have played sports in your life.
  •  If you are friendly and lively than it should reflect in the main character’s personality. He should be fun loving and friendly in the story.
  • An important note: Try to portray as many officers like quality you have in your personality in the stories and let it appear in other psyche tests also.
  • The main character has to be positive and bring out the story as a positive one.
Tips to follow when the ideas do not come to your mind, here I am using some examples:
  • If in a picture: A boy’s hand is placed on his head. The idea is: X is a boy, who lost his job in the time of recession. Now, he uses social networking sites to track HRs of different companies, after few months he got an interview call.
  • If in a picture: there are 2 girls. Then the idea is: To interpret one boy and then you can make your situation accordingly to illustrate women empowerment, harassment issue, women education like issues.
  • If in a picture: 2 people are fighting. The idea is – they are performing under karate, taekwondo, or a boxing match

So you can easily make a story by observing a picture carefully and by correlating with a practical problem.
