SSB is interview is a personality assessment tool that needs a altogether different set of preparation. It might have twenty per cent questions related to the latest happenings or related to the technical or related to education. But rest of the interview is related to your personality so beware of preparing in the same mode. It needs of reviewing of your life as a school kid, then a matured college boy/ girl, a responsible son or daughter for the family, and more about your self being. The interview as such needs no preparation from some book but needs a lot of time to introspect your life through a prepared mode of questionnaire. I have seen people struggling for what to prepare and how to prepare. You should know that there should be perfect interference in your personality as you write it on sheets through various rounds and what you actually are. All three rounds designed at SSB are just to test personality traits in the form of qualities that they are looking for.
So be ready to portray them only as I have heard people ribbing after rejection that they have written good stories with good vocabulary usage or sometimes aspirant claim that they spoke a lot in GD and wrote story filling all the provide pages. Now please understand at this moment that it’s not a English writing exam where how much you write or what words of vocabulary you use would be weighed. It’s a place where resemblance of perfect personality is seemed. Once you start understanding this difference then you are ready for SSB. As far as preparation for PI is considered the following areas can be prepared beforehand:
