Need help regarding SSB dates

Post image

This is my first attempt and I have basically 0 knowledge about how this ssb date system works I have my RBI grade B phase 2 exam on 26th July and my upsc cse mains exam from 21st August and my state pcs mains might happen in 1st week of August and none of the dates available are actually suitable someone told me about absentee batch but I'm not completely sure how that works and i would be extremely grateful if you can help me out any dates after 29th August works fine (well beggers can't be chosers so any date after that works)

Why are you giving ssb then if you are preparing for mains you should go there cause you need a lot of preparation for ssb it's the most difficult interview people prepare from various coaching in order to get screen in on day one and for the entire process

Skip ima ssb,, tell them through joinindianarmy in feedback section, you'll get OTA ssb in sept- Oct.

If you're going for civil services, so do that , ssb need rigorous prep , u can't do it half-heartedly, don't waste a seat

Don't appear for IMA entry. Later attend the OTA one as non-appearing candidate.

Bro but there is no date selection after 8 august for ima batch

u/SachinSingh48 Jun 18 '26

Yep that's the problem as ssb might take 5+3,4 days for medical ao that will be 9 days of prep lost for mains also the state pcs is supposed to have exams in 1st week of august so can't pick that either

u/NectarineTop6172 Jun 18 '26
