Do’s and Don’ts for GTO test in SSB

Do’s and Don’ts for GTO test in SSB

The GTO test determines the major conclusions and evaluations about any candidate and hence they get excited as it involves group activities based on group dynamics and of course adrenaline rush.  Here we discuss Do’s and Don’ts for GTO test in SSB. GTO tasks are different from the other two testing techniques as here the candidate will bring out his/her true self through a series of activities where he/she will be put under pressure with or without his/her group as well as test his/her reasoning and reasoning ability.  Confirmation tasks will show leadership qualities and assess their practicality.

Most of the aspirants get ready with the help of practice material such as books, articles and videos but rarely can one feel the tension and pressure anywhere except GTO Ground.  The third and fourth days at the Group Testing Ground are filled with exciting physical activities.  The candidates will be informed about all the outdoor activities by the Group Testing Officer in the morning.  The primary concern here is to see how you will cope with obstacles and the tasks assigned to you and your attitude towards other members of the group when working with and directing them.

Group tests do not require special individual skills, logical thinking, coordinated team efforts on your part;  The feasibility of receiving and making suggestions is looked into by the assessors.  You will be provided with sketch boards, ladders, ropes, planks and other such things as your tools to assist you with the assigned task.  You are given a few minutes to make a plan and then execute the task within the given time frame.

 let’s take a look at the dos and don’ts of GTO testing:

  • Have enough general awareness and read current affairs.
  • Understand the problems that arise correctly and assimilate all the details.

Tips to excellent in SSB GD

Its complement with logical reasoning and useful examples is loved by all as it helps to keep your point strong.

Confidence has always been the key to success, so see that whatever is presented is done with full confidence.

It’s not something that I will always speak for or against on the subject.  Please understand the difference between deb, extempore and GD.  Here things are limited to expressing views only.

Body language is positive, creates an entirely different level of awareness to the other members of the group and they are always interested in listening.

Being a listener of God is always a sign of a good member of a group.

As a member of the group your responsibility is to coordinate with the group and not to create a fish market.  Even though others may be contributing to the making of the fish market, you have to emerge as a leader to step out of that situation and facilitate proper discussion.

Eye contact should be maintained only with the members of the group and should not try to show off by over-spokenness.  Balance content with knowledge and coordination.
