Clearing the NDA written exam is only the beginning. The real challenge is proving yourself at the SSB Interview. Many capable aspirants struggle at SSB not because they lack knowledge, but because of common mistakes in Screening, Psychology Tests, GTO Tasks and Personal Interview. In this post, we cover 5 mistakes NDA aspirants should avoid: 🔹 Trying to dominate the Group Discussion 🔹 Writing unrealistic or “coached” responses in Psychology Tests 🔹 Taking the OIR Test lightly 🔹 Ignoring Current Affairs and general awareness 🔹 Using brute force instead of strategy in GTO Tasks SSB is not about acting like an officer.
