SSB psychology practice
From one aspirant to another...
Preparing for the SSB is a journey of understanding yourself, thinking clearly, and expressing your thoughts under pressure.
SSB Psych Buddy brings your TAT, WAT, SRT and SDT practice together in one place, helping you build consistency through structured practice and realistic test simulations.
No unnecessary complexity. Just a better way to prepare.
Why SSB Psych Buddy
Built by someone on the same road
When you prepare for the psychology tests, the hardest part is often not knowing how to practise: finding enough pictures, words and situations, keeping the timing honest, and doing it regularly.
SSB Psych Buddy was created by an aspirant to solve exactly that. It shows you the prompts the way the real tests do — with the right timing, one at a time — while you write on paper, just as you will at the selection centre.
It doesn't grade you or tell you what to write. It simply gives you a calm, structured place to practise.
The psychology tests
TAT, WAT, SRT and SDT — all in one place
TAT
Thematic Apperception Test

Word Association Test
One word at a time, 15 seconds each, advancing automatically — exactly the rhythm you will face.
Learn more →SRT
Situation Reaction Test
Read each situation and write your reaction. Practise with 30 seconds per situation or one overall time budget.
Learn more →SDT
Self Description Test
Fifteen minutes to describe yourself from five perspectives — parents, teachers, friends, yourself and areas to improve.
Learn more →Simulations
Practise one test, or the whole series
Sectional mock tests
Take any single test in its standard format — 11 pictures plus the blank in TAT, 60 words in WAT, 60 situations in SRT, or the 15-minute SDT.
Complete mock tests
Sit the full psychology series back to back — TAT, WAT, SRT and SDT — to build the stamina the real day demands.
Customised practice
Short on time? Choose how many pictures, words and situations you want, whether to include the blank picture or the SDT, and how SRT is timed.

Questions aspirants ask
What is SSB Psych Buddy?
SSB Psych Buddy is an online practice platform for the psychology tests of the SSB interview — the Thematic Apperception Test (TAT), Word Association Test (WAT), Situation Reaction Test (SRT) and Self Description Test (SDT). It gives you timed, realistic practice so you can build speed and consistency.
Who built it?
SSB Psych Buddy was built by an SSB aspirant who wanted a simpler, more structured way to practise — and decided to share it with fellow aspirants. It is not run by serving officers, psychologists or SSB assessors, and it is not affiliated with the Services Selection Board.
Do I type my answers on the website?
No. Just like the real tests, you write your responses on paper. The platform shows the pictures, words, situations and SDT headings with the correct timing, and moves on automatically where the real test does. Your written answers are never collected or stored.
Can I use it on my phone?
Yes. Every feature — including all four tests, mock tests, practice history and payments — is designed to work on a smartphone. You can also add SSB Psych Buddy to your home screen.
What is the difference between the packages?
All packages include exactly the same features. The only difference is how long your access lasts: 1, 4, 6, 9 or 12 weeks.
Are the prices inclusive of GST?
The prices shown on the pricing page exclude GST. GST at 18% is added at checkout, where you will see the base price, the GST amount and the final amount before you pay.
