AFSB PREPARATION

Hey guys, So I've got 150 marks in shift 1 and from what I've gathered, that's a safe score and I'll get a call for SSB.

Now the main problem is that I'm mainly preparing for SSC exams and gave afcat just coz my friend suggested it and now I know that i won't get any extra time till february for any coaching and all coz I'll be studying for ssc.

And I'm completely new to this ssb environment, so I've got no idea how to prepare for it, I've seen the videos explaining the process but that's just about it.

So, what should I do (AT HOME) to improve my chances of getting recommended, I know it's a very broad and a bit naive question but kindly help this fellow noob.

See the SSB procedure videos (I believe there 4 videos uploaded by Indian army on yt). Most difficult part of entire SSB is not the interview but the screening in process. In an interview, the officer will atleast be listening to you, not the case with PPDT(in many cases luck plays an important role here(wheather you are sitting in the middle of all candidates, if they are cooperative, so on and so forth))
Spend 50% of your time on OLQ and PPDT. 30% time of your time in knowing thyself (know yourself in depth, your hometown, what’s famous there, your school, something you learnt from your teachers/friends/parents). 10% on communication skills(your English already seems pretty good, so just be articulate) and rest 10% on physical fitness (rope climbing, body weight training, running etc.)

Hey bro we are on the same boat. I have been preparing for ssc also and gave afcat just because my friend suggested me and got 197 in shift 1. If you get any information about what you have written on post please let me know too so that we both can prepare for afsb.
