SSB INTERVIEW - GOOD AND BAD HABITS

A very important question was asked by someone regarding a very important question of SSB. This question is asked in different formats but the answer which they are looking for is related to your personality...
Questions are:
• Write 3 good and bad qualities of yourself?
• Write 3 good qualities of your friend or what do you like about your friend? (actually they are your qualities)
• Write 3 bad qualities of your friend or what is it that you don't like in your friend?
• Which are the three qualities of yours that your friends like? (your good qualities)
• Which are the three qualities of yours that your enemies like? ( your weaknesses)
What is the purpose of these questions?
The first purpose is to see if you know about your own self or not, its a SWOT analysis of your self (Strength, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats). If a person knows about him/her self he can handle any situation and has a better judgment power.
The second purpose of these questions like almost all of the questions at SSB is to see if you are telling the truth or lies.
Since this is a pet question in SSB its better to prepare it first. Like always, here again I’ll tell you to think about yourself and try to come up with your answers. Because if you write your real weaknesses (bad habits) and good traits then you would be able to answer exactly the same elsewhere if asked.
Here is what you have to think before answering these important questions...
• Don’t Lie 100% . 20 or 30% is allowed smile emoticon (write your good things which are in you and bad which are)
• Note if you are writing a bad habit it shouldn’t be that bad which would make a negative impact on selectors e.g. "I lie, I cheat" etc.
• Don’t try to be too positive which would clearly show you are lieing, e.g. "I am very honest, I never lie" etc. (everyone lies its human nature)
• If you are very creative try to portray you negatives in a way as if they appear to be positive...e.g. "Sometimes in order to keep up with my study schedule I cut my time which I plan to spend with my family" (This is an example....DO NOT COPY....)
Here are some of the examples of good habits.
• I try my level best to be punctual.
• I try to be social.
• I respect elders as for me respect of elders is very important
And for bad habits...
• I am not regular in prayers (if off course you are not, if you are, you should write in good habits).
• I take alot of tea. (Similar can be made, but such should be written at the end)
• I am a miser ( meaning Kanjoos)

I hope you have got the idea.

The Thematic Apperception test (TAT), Picture Perception and Description Test - SSB Interview

How to write TAT or PPDT Stories SSB consists of three techniques, Psyche, GTO and the Interview one. Tests differ but the technique is the same and the technique is looking for suitability. Means possession! Projection and rating, ranking and grading of OLQs of the optimum satisfaction of the “Assessors” I will show you one of picture and would like to make up a story on the picture. The story should be as dramatic and imaginative as possible. Tell me what is happening in this picture?, what led up to it? And what will the outcome be? Describe as fully as you can, the thoughts, feeling, action and emotions of the character but please do not describe the picture as you are required to write a story with the blank card. The subject is asked (Subject here, would mean the candidate) to imagine and write a story about it. To encourage the flow of the story, I will suggest you to bear these aspects in the mind and to act like this. What is happening? How is it happening?

SSB Psychological test - Word association test (WAT)

Word association test or WAT is one of the famous tests of psychology. The main purpose of this test is to get a clear idea about a candidates thinking. You may be wondering how can they check our thinking ? well its quite simple actually. Humans think about something if they get some time, but if there is no time at all then we act on the very first thought that comes in our mind. What happens in this test is that you are shown a word on which you have to make a sentence. The problem is that you only have 15 seconds to think and write a sentence on that particular word. Words rage from 60. Most of the words are repeated in order to see if the candidate has the same mode of thinking or not, usually after 15 20 sentences candidate's mind begins to give up thinking and he/she starts writing whatever comes in mind in split of a second, he doesn't know what he has written in the test when it finishes , the test actually get the true thinking of the candidate on the paper.
