Self Introspection Leads to Success

5
OTA Chennai

I am a die hard aspirant who kept in mind the motto of “try one more time by self-introspection)” and achieved my dream after 7 attempts. i.e 4 conferences and 3 screen outs. I started my SSB journey in Jan 2012 (SSC tech 38) (conference out) and got recommended in Apr 2012 in Indian Coast Guard. But even though i was declared medically fit in Review Medical Board for Bilateral Cubitus Valgus (excess carrying angle), the seat for ICG in Ezhimala was filled and when i called the ICG HQ , they told me come fresh next time !!!!!!

Disheartened with bit anger, i wanted to cope with the psychological stress i was facing and quickly took up the job as Planning Engineer in a power plant construction company. The love for uniform kept the fire inside my heart burning and went to TGC-117 Bangalore in May 2013 ( Conference out) and later to SSC tech-41 to ALD in July 2013 (conference out again)prepared but lot of error in personality had crept in.  I did go to coaching when i was recommended in ICG in 2012 but consequent failures were still there as i was not exhibiting the ‘natural hero’ (who is there in every human) in my psychology and interviews.
Kept introspecting, practiced a lot of TAT and WAT SRT and SD by setting time for mock test on Sunday in a SSB simulated environment in my room!!(Psychologist narration was given to me by myself 😉 :).
Kept update about the current affairs just 1 month before SSB and recalled my idea of cantilever in Previous GTOs.
Self Introspection Leads to Success

 

About Coaching: 
Yes friends i went to an Ex.Sr.GTO for guidance. But remember as we compare SSB to a battle, The IMA or OTA can only train you how to shoot, but it is us who have to apply the knowledge gained with the immense presence of mind.
SSB CRACK’s Role: 
“My appointment to the psychologist” which i downloaded from SSB crack was a big turning point. i.e. It told the ways to develop OLQ while being ourselves.
Strategy to crack SSB:
  • TAT : real life crisis stories which i or my colleagues solved in my personal and official life.
  • WAT : crisis solving and team work related words  used in my profession, current affairs and hobbies
  • SRT : Repeated practice for good hand writing and i solved all the problems that i faced in real life and treated them as SRT. ( wrote only 36 logical ones in SSB)
  • Self Description: Asked the respective people about their opinion and wrote what kind of person i would like to be in personal and professional life by fine tuning it.
GTO: 
  • No quarrelling in GD but requested genuinely when i wanted to put my points and listening to others and added my points by complimenting their points.
  • GPE: Logical step by step prioritizing of hurdles and time & resource available and action plan. and spoke 2 times.
  • PGT , HGT and FGT, CT as usual just helped as and when required and snake race they told not to put the figure of 8 but just cross the obstacle with snake . But i had missed the instruction !!! (how embarrassing it would be when whole team wondered why i was putting the figure of “8”) . Lecturette was on talibanisation of Pakistan (knowledge on current affairs helped here). A bold and step by step explanation of topic, with a good smile and eye contact throughout.
As interview was on the 4th day, he had the psych and GTO assessments on his table and gave me a rapid fire and i missed two. I kept everything in my mind and answered step by step in sequence with a natural smiley face. to recall i closed my eyes and recalled and told the answer. Not a single question on GK or current affairs!!! Of course very general technical and general physics questions. (Inertia and newton’s law)
A insulting question like: you have been recommended once but Conference out two times after that (sarcastically smile). What is the reason?
Ans : Sir, I had the OLQ during Coast guard FSB, but after one year the personality changed and had errors. So i have corrected them and this time i will recommended ( i was smiling but he dint !!!!)
It lasted for nearly 30 min and over.
Conference: 
Me:Good morning everyone.
Dy Pres: Good morning. So you have sufficient experience in SSB it seems ( Sarcastic and laughing seeing my PIQ )
Me: (smiling) Yes i do have SIR.
DY Pres: OK rate your performance in the three techniques in the ascending order
 Me: Psych, interview and GTO
Dy Pres: Why GTO 3rd?
Me: I did mistake in Snake race and couldn’t finish CT exactly as GTO
Dy Pres: How do you rate yourself in your GTO group.
Me: I am no. One Sir,
Dy pres. : WHom do you rate next to you in GTO.
Me: Chest no. 42 Sir,
Dy. : How was stay ?
 Me : Fine sir.
Dy : thank you , you may leave now.
Friends, they are psychologically checking to suit the defense. i.e We may definitely try to our best and get failed. But the way you understand and correct you failure and attack and win battles (SSB). I have won my battle by becoming 6th rank in mechanical engineering in the merit list for SSC tech 42.

Got Recommended in 5th Attempt from Allahabad

Hi friends myself Diwakar Sharma from Bangalore, if there is will they is way for your destination. Friends I believe that our destination is based on our hardwork “Dream is not what we see in sleep. But dream is which does not let us sleep till we achieve it”. I was reported to Allahabad SSB on 02 January 2014 and it was ultimately experience for me because it was mine last attempt for SSB. And I make up my mind that this is mines last chance and I was aware that I will not get the same chance in coming future so, I prepared accordingly.

The first was end up with normal formality and evening we reported to respective hall for documentation. Then we proceed towards dinner.
And then I stated preparing for Battle 1 that is screening mentally. The screening is same thing which is helping the assessor weather you are fit to join prestige’s organization

Got Recommended in 5th Attempt from Allahabad

 

First day:-
We all reported to respective hall at 6: 45 AM for Battle 1 (screening). Firstly assessing officer briefed about screening then he started distributing question booklets and we are strictly informed that we are not allowed to open the question booklets until they are asked to do so.
They was 2 booklet (Verbal and non-verbal) give to us solve with 25 mints each booklets consisting of 50 question.
After that we have given 15 mints brake so that they can prepare for next test that is PPDT (Picture perception and description test)
Then we all calledby our NCO and JCO for test 

Then they flash 1 picture, according to picture we have write few details like Mood, sex and age and action ( what is happing in picture) for this 1 mint is give write and followed by story for 4 mint.

Got Recommended in 5th Attempt from Allahabad


Then they took our answer sheet and send out from the hall for brake of ½ or 1 hour.
Then, they have divided the students into batches of 18. And one by one each group were called and 30 sec. given for go through, what we have written in sheet later one by one we started narrating our story.
Narrating of story play important role for your selection for next stage, I request you to kindly practice will in advance before you enter that hall and speak with confidence.
At 12:00 pm result was out and out of 76 candidates 30 candidates was retain for battle 2 and I was one among them.

Day Two:- ( Psych)
As I was practice pretty will so was able to complete the story on time. If I compare earlier attempts was unable to complete the story on time. But this time I was able to complete on time.
Moreover, I believe group studies and self analysis play important role in correcting my mistake in psychologies.
I know that no story is correct or wrong but when we discuss the same story with group of friends we can make few good story and correct our general mistake which we commits during writing and It help us build our imagination power to thing and understand the picture.
Next test was WAT- I have prepared few ppt on WAT and every day practice, which help me complete the sentence on time.
SRT – I was wrote 39 SRT out of 60 situation. This time I was pretty slow in writing the sentence because I was reading and understand then, I was given my responses.
It does not matter how much you have wrote in SRT but is matter how good you can write, by reading understanding the situation.
Self description test- I prepared will in advance for SD.
Day three and four GTO      
This is only test which I always enjoy in whole SSB selection process. The golden rule for to complete the GTO series is to enjoy it with the group.
Always be in a group rather apart from group. During my GD I have spoken for 3 to 4 times but I make sure that whenever I spoke other should listen and I can contribute valuable point in GD.
Whenever you are doing any task in GTO ground make sure that you should have eye on what is happing around you. Take suggestion, Ides even though you have capable to complete the whole task by yourself.
During your GTO your GTO sir may be pressure you during your command task. But you should maintain you cool and relax attitude and keep smiling. This what I did during my command task.
If you don’t any idea then try help other. You should know that all the aspirant undergoing for SSB are like you have same potential like you So, never command them or control them, just help them during a task.
Interview
They is no hard and fast rule for SSB this what applicable for Interview. You should aware what you are and where you are lacking.
I would recommend if have 2 to 3 mock interviews with your friend, which will really help you to understand you and your mistake.
Or, you can write each and every interview question with answer and analysis it. This is what I did for my Interview.
Conference
By know my fate has been decided. During my conference they ask me few questions which they ask me in mine interview. I have give same answer what I have given during mine interview.
My conference was long. Ultimate i was satisfied with my conference; this is what happed with me for first time.
At last was waiting for mine result, I was really nervous because it was mine last attempt and that particular day I cannot forget movement reset mine life.
Ultimately 2 people got recommend and I was second person in that.
It was really high point of mine life and after this I am not expect anything in mine life.
I am joining officer training academy (OTA) on April 05, 2014.
“ Self believe and confidence is key mine success. So friends, never be disheartened
Take failure as stepping stone and move forward. Quieting is easy but fighting till last is real hero and worrier.”
May god bless you all  J
