I got recommended by 34 SSB Allahabad for Indian Military Academy. I went to IMA, Dehradun in July 2012. I was a proud person with arrogance having cleared SSB in the first attempt. But life is greatest leveller. All of my arrogance vanished when I was injured during training and prescribed one year bed rest. I had two options either be there for 6 months and start training after that. In this case if injury recurs, there were chances of being kicked out of the academy. Another choice was to resign and again try to get in once fit.
I chose to resign. I was insecure and confused. I did not know what to do because if I would have been in the academy and kicked out after 6 months, it would have been almost impossible to get a job outside.
I came out, got a jpb in IT industry. As soon I was fit, I started to go to SSBs. I was rejected 4 times by Air Force, once by the army and once by Indian Coast Guard. A major flaw in me was my decision to quit Indian Military Academy. Assessors were not convinced by my justifications. I lost all hopes of getting recommended. I started to prepare for civil services. But there is something about these SSBs, or will to join the forces, you just think let us try one more time.
I waited for next AFCAT notification after being conferenced out in August 2014. To my horror, EKT was included for technical entry and it was the only entry I was eligible for. I took AFCAT test and EKT. AFCAT test was pretty good, but I was sure that I will not clear EKT. Whole EKT paper was calculated guess. In a month, results were announced. I was drinking that night. My friend told me that results are out. I was sure that I will not clear EKT to such an extent that I did not bother to check the result for next two hours. After two hours and quite a few drinks, I decided to just confirm my failure in EKT. I logged in and my AFCAT marks was 191/300 and EKT was 5/150. Cut off was 123/300 and 45/150. I left the browser open and had some drinks. I informed my friends of the result. They were consoling a drunk person who was abusing everything for the ordeal he went through. Suddenly I heard a shout of my friend. He told,” its 55/150 not 5/150 you asshole”. We confirmed and reconfirmed. I was through for next AFSB on 24th November.
I went to 2AFSB Mysore in November 2014 for July 2015 course. There was a footfall of around 200. Around 50 were screened in. I was screened in and getting ready for next 4 days. My psychological test was same as earlier attempts. I find it ridiculous when someone asks “How was your Psych test/PI?”. It’s not good or bad, it’s just as it is. GTO test was a bad experience, especially in PGT. We were not able to complete the task. Officer shouted at us. Command task was pretty good. I was waiting for the interview and the same devilish question again, ” Why you left IMA?”.
The day came. I was called in the room.

The interview got over.
In conference, I was asked normal questions.
Everybody in my batch changed to formal for results. I changed to casuals. I was nearly sure that I will not get in and next time I will go to Varanasi AFSB.
Results were announced after initial address. The officer announced 3 chest numbers. Suddenly he says Chest number 41. I was shell shocked. I did not even had photos and xerox of mark sheet. I went to the podium. I have thought of that moment several times in my head. I use to think I will celebrate like Kohli or I would break down, but nothing happened. I was as still as a statue with gratefulness towards almighty.
The date was 29th November 2014.
