The AIM

The basic intention to employ this technique is to give a chance to the candidate to reveal his own personality or character to the psychologist .Secondly ,it shows whether the candidate has a fair of insight In himself .If he knows himself and is conscious of his weakness ,he will get rid of some of these and improve his personality But if he does not have a fair insight into his own character how can he be expected to improve his own personality ?

Importance of the test .

The importance of the test cannot be over emphasized .The psychologist will confirm his observations about the candidate and his appraisal and form an important base in the interview .Everybody has some strong and some weak points and there is no restriction in highlighting his weakness alongwith with his good qualities ,it will give a true picture about himself .The best way to describe himself is to be true and faithful about himself .Therefore he should be no overestimate and under estimate of his personality.

TAT-Thematic Appreciation Test

INTRODUCTION
It is one of the effective methods of projective techniques used by the psychologist in order to reveal a great deal's of one's personality .The technique employed is that  in the interpretation of an ambiguous situation a person will reveal hidden aspects of his thoughts .From this interpretation of the individual an appraisal of his personality is measured .The intentions of the test is to ask the candidate to give an appreciation of his own qualities without being consious to it being a very short time But in its wider sense ,it means attributing to the external world any quality of the self.

Thematic appreciation test consist of series of standard pictures which are shown to the candidate for a short time and his thoughts and reactions are collected to this stimulus in the form of a story .From this story the assessment of his personality is drawn by the psychologist .

Procedure.
About 12 pictures slides are shown to the candidates in succession .Each slide is kept displayed for 30 seconds and 4 minutes time is given to form a story on the basis of the picture shown to the candidate .Every picture shown has a reaction which gives base to the story .Story is nothing but its the candidates reaction to the stimulus .The story provides valuable clues about the emotional attitude and temperamental make up .

RULES
1)11 pictures+one blank story .
2)Time -30 seconds for the projection of the picture and 3-4 minutes for writing the story.

Technique
There are two characters in the story one is the main character of the story that is the hero and other are the characters that play the supporting role or helping role .
Story should have three parts -
1What led to the situation?
2)What is happening at the moment ?
3)What is the final outcome ?
In the opening part ,a need or problem or challenge is presented and along with the identification of the hero the aim of the hero is given .In this part it is told whether the hero is a college student ,an officer or an buisnessman and what he has to do .It should be given in 2-4 lines of the story .


The middle part is the most important of all .In this part all the actions of the hero are given .The efforts or steps he takes ,the methods he adopts and his journey to achieve the aim ,all these things are given in this part .This part reflects the picture that means what is shown to the candidate .A candidate must write much more in  this part to what is happening at the moment .

The end part reflects the final outcome .It shows the result of hero's efforts and the level of satisfaction as he is satisfied to serve the country .It can definetly define the future of the hero in one or two lines .



KEEP IN MIND 
1)There is no villain in the story.
2)Hero should lead the story ,side characters are just good followers .
3)Do not give any heading or title to the story.
4)Handwriting should be legible .

Tips to crack Nda exam

Tips -
1)First of all i want to tell you that if you score 500 out of 900 You will manage to clear the nda written exam .The cutoff of the exam varies from 400-500 according to the difficulty of the paper . so Score around around 500 marks to clear the written .
2)Topics such as trigonometry (mostly  formulaes),Diffrential equation ,simple  Integration and differentiation and permutation combinations have the most weightage .Maths ncert is enough for you to clear the nda written .
3) for the general ability part - the english section is relatively easy you can answer 40 out of 50 questions easily if you are an average guy .And for the general knowledge questions  i will advice  not to unneccessarily answer them until you are confident cause negative marking is there. for Gk i will tell you to read newspaper regularly and please check all the defence excercises and operations which India carries out with other countries ,because most of the times 2or 3 questions are based on it 
4)physics and chemistry section is relatively easier ........ncert is enough for you to answer them .
 5) SOCIAL SCIENCE SECTION IS A BIT DIFFICULT IF YOU KNOW THE ANSWERS WELL AND GOOD IF YOU DONT THEN LEAVE IT .
5) FROM HISTORY SECTION REVISE ALL THE INDEPENDENCE MOMENTS SUCH CHAURI CHAURA ,SWADESHI, QUIT INDIA  etc AND ALSO REVISES THE VARIOUS CONGRESS SESSIONS HELD DURING THEIR PERIOD AND THEIR SIGNIFICANCE .
 Guys I cleared nda written  3 times for nda II(124 course) ,nda I(125) and nda II(126) .

I have no worries about my self
I had put the hope 'to live long' upon the shelf
I am going to be the first in the battle ground
From the love of my country I'm proud
If I die in a battle zone,
Box me up and send me home,
Put the rifle on my chest
Tell my mom I did my best
Tell my nation not to cry
I am the soldier born to die
My soul is trampling everywhere
My voice echoing far in the air
I ask from God about my nation
God replies if the nation have son like you
No power on earth can split them into two
Tell my family not to cry
I was a soldier born to die
Angels are present giving me comfort
But I miss you my parents all with love.
