Candidates should start preparing for the Indian Army TES as soon as possible without waiting for the notification. Aspirants must know the preparation strategy for the upcoming recruitment before applying for the Indian Army TES 2022.
Make a Timetable: Creating a plan will help you be more efficient and save time. Incorporate physical activities into your daily routine. Individual obstacles and snake races will benefit from it.
Be a Good Reader: It's great to read the newspaper every day, but even if you can't, you should at least be aware of what's happening.
Psychology is Vital: PPDT is the essential parameter in psychological testing. A sensible, practical, concise story adheres to the DSO's basic elements. Critical psychological tests are conducted during the SSB on the second day of the five-day testing schedule. These particular tests are based on a scientific approach to evaluating the qualities of a candidate at their subconscious level as well as the non-conscious state of mind.
The main aim of these tests is to evaluate the potential of an aspirant in terms of qualities and personality traits desired in the potential officer candidate. Therefore, the candidate cannot hide his genuine feelings, and the psychologist can also read the aspirant's real personality. At the same time, they give their responses regarding feelings, thoughts, and actions.
Thematic Apperception Test (TAT): TAT preparation is simple and straightforward. Grab a pen, a notebook, and a stopwatch (a stopwatch on your phone will be enough) and head to your terrace, where you can observe people engaged in various activities. Take down their age and mood, and try to piece together a story. When you travel, you can bring a book and pen with you. Then you can see if you can write the story in under three and a half minutes.
Then examine your own story to see if it meets the following criteria: Whether or not the story is uplifting, whether or not the hero you choose is the same age and gender as you, if the story is divided into three parts, such as past, present, and future, the story's acceptability and naturalness, whether or not the account is connected to the image displayed.
Situation Reaction Test (SRT): This is the most critical SSB test because you may have to take it during your interview. Please do not write any solution beyond your age, financial situation, or physical strength. If you are a karate master, you can bash the criminals and save the victim. However, if you're not a karate master, adjust your reaction accordingly.
Please keep your reactions natural and put yourself in the situation to get your response. Basic common sense is required for the preparation. You might read something like this while reading the newspaper or watching the news on TV: "An accident occurred, and many people were injured." If you read a situation like this, imagine yourself in it and consider how you would react.
Word Association Test (WAT): This will take a lot of practice, and you can get the words from SSBCrack. Then have someone show you each word for 15 seconds, or use MS Powerpoint Slide Show to do it yourself. Ensure your sentence is free of words like I, me, should, and could. You can use them if you need them. Your reaction should be natural, and you should write the first thought that comes to mind.
Self-Description Test (SDT): This test allows the Psychologist to determine the Candidate's ability to self-analyze. The procedure is exceptionally straightforward. Observe what your friends, teachers, superiors (in the case of serving or working candidates), and parents say about you, or ask them directly.
Also, could you consider your life goals and how you see yourself? Your opinions should never contradict those of your parents or teachers. Then rewrite it several times to pick out the essential points and discard the ones that aren't. It also aids in the management of time.
Practice Story, Narration, & lecturette: Story narration is integral to the screening process. Practice this a few times to ensure you can deliver your story with confidence and clarity of thought. Maintain eye contact, body language, and facial expressions with the group.
Interview Preparation: To give the SSB interview, candidates need to understand the psyche and requirements of the interviewer and think by keeping themselves in the place of an interviewer. You'll have to think hard about what the interviewer expects from you and how well you are prepared to take this challenge.
To think like the interviewer, the candidate should make themselves aware of the job profile, the requirements for which they will be interviewed, and what type of people find eligibility in that respective line of work. Being aware of his personality, inner nature, and people near you and your family and friends is also crucial.
GTO Preparation: There are some specific rules & instructions that must be kept in your mind when performing these tasks, and after this, you will become a leader automatically. It is more critical to speak less but at the same time speak well in Group discussions. It would help if you gave the Group Discussion a direction every time you talk or say. The strategy for all the tasks in Group Testing Officer testing is different, and evolving a core strategy for all of them while distinct small approaches to form on the nature of the job will improve your performance. Begin running and also do some core exercises.
It will help you in all aspects of life. Meditation will also be quite helpful. Run daily; start by running only 1 km per day and exercising, and then gradually increase it. Your stamina will get rise day by day.
Final Preparation: One week before the SSB, practice psychology tests by considering the time. Revise all your current affairs as well as psych notes. Also, revise your interview answers. Also, get your psychology assessment done by an excellent DIPR-trained assessor. Remember one thing for the physical tasks: after you get fatigued, your stamina runs out. After that, it is the examination of your will. Could you make it count? During practice, please do not try to attain perfection but instead work on the progress.
Your Attitude for the SSB Matters: The first and foremost thing you must work on is that the candidate needs to believe in themselves and themselves correctly. Because if one cannot do that, then there is no way the selection board will think otherwise. Go with the attitude or viewpoint of if not me, then who? Remember that your mind will not be freely accessed if you keep thinking about what to read and write and how you will be evaluated. You will not be able to think distinctly, resulting in a time lag in your performance during the interview.
Please Work on your English: You'll need to understand that good English in SSB is not to impress the selection panel. Instead, it ensures you can make your point with fluency and clarity. Everyone wants to be heard and impress the selecting officer overseeing the Group Discussion, but remember that you need to be empathetic to others and their views.
