How to Do Well in Situation Reaction Test

(SRT) of SSB

This is a very special test of second day psychology round which tests the various aspirants for the
normal happenings of the life and the situations that may arise suddenly in one’s life anytime.
Situations given in the series are such that can anytime happen with anyone suddenly. You are
provided with a booklet which has specially designed 60 questions. Each question depicts a situation
and has a blank which needs to be filled by the taker of the exam as to what would be his/her
reaction when such situation comes in the life.
The best formula to do such questions is to just write solution that you would opt for being a
responsible citizen of the country. The following can help in attempting such questions:

 Make a note of this that you cannot leave any situation unhandled but you have to provide a
solution that is feasible by a human being not by a super hero.
 Be realistic and practical with your answers
 Be truthful and don’t try to fake as you are being tested at various places for the same quality
or say that same quality should come out of your acts so never try to conceal anything.
 Be brief in your solutions.
 Also there might be some questions repeated to check consistency, just maintain that and
don’t show different solutions at such places which gives the essence of fakeness.
 Try to attempt as many questions as you want and don’t try to escape situations. That simply
means you are thinking too much and responding by faking results
 Read the situation properly before answering to understand the context of the place.
 Quality of response matters not the quality but this does not give the freedom to think and
write less. You score for more you right the answers rightly.
 Your solutions and qualities might be discussed at conference by all the officers when they
get together. So they should get the same person as it is when they go through the
personality assessment.
