My Target Service Selection Board (SSB)

10. Tiger leap (walk up a podium, leap and catch hold of a rope, count 1001,1002 and start coming

down, don’t come rushing down , but do it step by step.)

The best way of doing this is to follow this sequence:

10, 9, 8, 4, 6, 7, 1, 2, 5, 3.
Or if not possible make circular arrangement on seeing the placement of obstacles at the same
day itself, but do it fast.

A prior practice of climbing and running is necessary to enhance your performance.
Duration 3 mints. Per candidate, 35-40 mints. Overall.

Command Task

Friends command task is one of the outdoor tests from GTO series. It is conducted normally on 2nd
day of GTO testing. The test comprises a short talk with testing officer and one obstacle or problem

similar to PGT and HGT. As test part is similar to PGT hence same rules apply here. The only
difference is that you are the only candidate under GTO’s sharp observation now. Things tested
under this test are how you act as a leader of a team, how good you are in application of your mind

and quickness in making decision. Almost 10 minutes are given to each candidate to cross the
obstacle. GTO calls candidates one by one, in a random manner, when one candidate is performing
other will sit and wait.
