SSB Experience Series: Recommended in 5th Attempt for Indian ARMY- Part 1

Hello potential officers. I feel extremely privileged to have the opportunity to walk you through my pursuit to join the Indian Army. My story started in 2012, I had cleared my NDA written and was all set to join the esteemed National Defence Academy. For this I didn’t want to leave any stone unturned and also took coaching. I still consider it as the BIGGEST BLUNDER of my life, the coaching made me too much conscious and anxious. It placed a mental block in my mind and as a result I was not able to think freely. It made me an IMPOSTER that too a bad IMPOSTER of a military leader.
