As we are aware of the reopening of SSB centers in this halt situation, firstly, I want to wish safety and all the best for the candidates who will be appearing for it. As I went for a total of 6 SSBs before my graduation, there were several questions asked during the interviews to my other friends and me. Today, I would like to share some of them with you all so as to provide you with the desired questions which might come in your SSB interview too. Though, the questions were from different areas like self, family, friends, education qualification, co-curricular activities, sports, current affairs, armed forces knowledge, Indian geography, and maps. But I would try to collect as many as possible from them to provide you with better knowledge.
