Situation Reaction Test

This test has been designed to access the reaction of the candidate at a particular moment. This test is largely a

test of common sense .In every day life one comes across certain unforeseen situations and one is called upon

to resolve these or has to find the solution for these and to act in an appropriate manner to meet the

requirement of the situation. SSB Provide very short duration of time to think upon a moment and react,

thereby to create a spontaneous reaction within a candidate, which he writes to his answer sheet. If you try to

think and write, then you will waste the time and will not be able to answer more than 80% questions

correctly. At the ssb, a candidate is required to answer 60 SRT Events in 30 minutes of time. The time limit

has been purposely reduced so that candidates gives his response without protracted deliberation and gives aspontaneous response. The situation at the test resembles with those confronted by all of us in day to day life.

There's no right or wrong to these situations, since they are purely based on the person's personal perception.

It is generally known carries an equal importance in ones recommendation.

Tips:

Write minimum possible words in your response , using words and punctuation marks .Don't use

telegraphic/Bookish language. Don't write merely reactions ,write the full action .Candidate has to attend all

the SRT in the given time and therefore the candidates should attempt the easier first and then the question he

finds difficult. Your response should reflect qualities like cooperative attitude ,positive approach. You may

find some SRT's which are repeated. Therefore you have to be cautious in not contradict to solution you have

given to it.Attempt as much as you can .
