    Interview Preparation Tips

    Round: Test
    Experience: Day -1
    Round I - Written test of logic and reasoning.The question set was at-least 10-15 yrs old as the pages were yellow.Secret test 53/54(don't remember the exact line) was written on it.
    easy questions.practice or no practice you will do well in it.

    Round: Group Discussion
    Experience: Round II - PICTURE PERCEPTION TEST along with GD..the most important round to get selected for further round.A blurred picture (again looked as if the same picture has been used from decades)will be shown.you have to perceive the image scenario, try to recognize the characters and write a short story (3 min - 180 words minimum). The picture will be really blurred.This will be followed by a GD where you have to narrate your story and reach on a common story for your group.
    Try practicing some picture test from ssb selection books. They are very helpful as air force just want something heroic deed,helpful scenario to be perceived. Practice as much as you can.
    In Gd try to start the GD and if not try to make the conclusive story.And most importantly address to your group as if only your group is present not the test personals.
    Results of day first or elimination announced same day at about 1300 hrs.
    Lunch also given along with the two way fare of sleeper class for those who were 1st timers in SSB.Can't help ahead as was eliminated in round II of day 1.My bad missed a golden chance as I neglected the picture perception test practice.NOTE - very good and easy opportunity for freshers..i.e those going for SSB for 1st time. really if you wanna join the royal job..Just prepare 1 month before.Read SSB books and you are done.
