SSC Tech 68th Course April 2027: Important Details

Who Can Select the SSB Centre and Date?

The Centre/Date Selection Link is available for shortlisted candidates of both:

• SSC (Tech) Men 68th (April 2027) Course
• SSC (Tech) Women 68th (April 2027) Course

If you have been shortlisted, log in to your candidate profile and check whether the Centre/Date Selection option is available.

How to Select SSB Centre and Date?

Candidates can complete the process by following these basic steps:

• Visit the official Indian Army recruitment portal.
• Log in to your candidate profile.
• Open the Centre/Date Selection Link.
• Check the available SSB centres and dates.
• Select your preferred SSB Centre.
• Select the available SSB Date.
• Check the details carefully.
• Complete the selection process before the deadline.

It is better to complete the process early rather than waiting for the final few hours.

What After SSB Centre and Date Selection?

Once the SSB date is selected, candidates should use the remaining time for focused preparation. SSC Tech candidates often come from technical and engineering backgrounds, but SSB preparation goes beyond academic knowledge.

The selection process involves different stages, including Screening Tests, Psychology Tests, Group Testing Officer (GTO) Tasks, and Personal Interview. Candidates should therefore understand the complete process and practise accordingly.

For example, preparation can include:

• OIR practice for the Screening stage
• PP&DT story writing and discussion
• TAT, WAT and SRT practice
• Group Discussion and other GTO activities
• Personal Interview preparation
• Self-awareness and personal profile preparation
• Regular physical activity

The objective should be to become familiar with the process rather than memorising fixed answers.

SSB Preparation Options for SSC Tech Candidates

Candidates who are preparing for their first SSB may consider joining a structured preparation programme if they need regular practice and mentor guidance.

Centurion Defence Academy is one such option, with SSB preparation programmes available at its Lucknow and Dehradun centres. Its training covers major areas of the SSB process, including OIR, PP&DT, Psychology, GTO and Personal Interview.

For candidates who prefer guided preparation, such programmes can provide an opportunity to practise different SSB activities in a structured environment and understand where they need improvement.

However, coaching is not a substitute for individual preparation. Candidates should also spend time understanding their own academic background, interests, achievements, strengths, and areas of improvement, as these can become important during the Personal Interview.

Why Candidates Should Not Wait Until the Last Week

Once the SSB date is selected, it is easy to think that there is still plenty of time. However, trying to cover the entire SSB process in the final few days can make preparation stressful.

A better approach is to divide the preparation into smaller areas.

Start with understanding the SSB procedure, followed by regular practice of Screening and Psychology tests. Gradually include GTO activities and interview preparation. Candidates should also review their personal information and be prepared to discuss their education, hobbies, achievements, and future goals naturally.

The aim should be to develop familiarity and confidence through practice rather than learning scripted responses.

SSC Tech 68th SSB Centre & Date Selection Deadline

The Centre/Date Selection Link for both Men and Women candidates will remain open until:

• Date: 12 October 2026
• Time: 5:00 PM (1700 hrs)

Candidates should keep the deadline in mind and complete their selection well before 1700 hrs on 12 October 2026.
