    kya “ISSB” main “SIFARISH” chalti hay?

    Assalam-o-Alykum Everyone! today we are going to talk about a serious and most common question i.e “Kya ISSB main sifaraish chalti why? This is one of the biggest problems nowadays that people use unfair means to get something. Many youngsters think that to become an officer it is necessary to have someone’s reference. And without a solid reference, it is almost impossible to be an officer in nowadays. Well If you are among these people or you have heard it from people around you,that you will need a reference to get recommended keep on reading. You are exactly at the right place. Because I am going to remove all your negative thoughts below.

    What happens on the First day At ISSB

    The Day when you reach the center in the morning you will have to wait for your security clearance/ checking. Your bags will be checked and if you have a map or a newspaper or some kind of medicines they will take it away. After that, you will move in a line inside the center. There you will have to fill a form deposit your mobile phone or any other thing which isn’t necessary. Also you will have to show them your call letter and returning the booklet which they sent with the letter is a must. You will be alotted rooms where you are going to stay for the rest of your duration at “ISSB”. After a While they will call you for attendance at mess. There they will ask you for Documents and you will be alloted “Chest numbers”

    This is the whole thing When you are alloted “CHEST NUMBERS”. Due to which you will get a new identity i.e you will be called chest number XYZ instead of your name. Also these chest numbers aren’t permanent as you will have to cherange it for GTO’s tasks. There you will get another identity. Now when you get chest numbers and a whole new identity there is no chance to get someone’s reference. As no one outside of the center will know your chest number and no one inside of the center will know your real name. Remember your phone which you just deposited before getting the room that was your only way of communication inside there.

    What About The Staff There

    Ok! I guess I need to provide another satisfying proof. Keep this in mind that Inside ISSB center everyone wears normal civilian clothes except the guards on duty. And they also don’t have nameplates on their uniform. If you want me to talk about the Testing Officers they will also be in pure civil uniform without any clue about their name, unit or rank so you cannot tell anyone about them outside the center. Keep this in mind that you are not allowed to talk to anyone on duty. Same is the case with duty staff they won’t talk to you. So after that I guess you will have a clear Idea about Sifarish in issb. It is no doubt a very pure institution where the defenders of the nation are selected they look for various qualities.

    Many sons of higher rank officers get rejected If they aren’t. If you are talking about many army sons get selected this is because of the fact that they are surrounded by the environment. Their personalities are already groomed thus they usually have developed the qualities of an officer. To be honest, let me tell you if you want to talk about medical or anything there might be a very little chance but in issb, there is no chance at all.

    CONCLUSION

    From the above proofs, I hope it will be clear as crystal for you now. The only reference which work is of Allah (S.W.T) so If you want to get selected pray five times a day and work hard. I can say that with 100% confidence he will never ever ruin and waste your hard work. Keep this in mind If he can create you and this whole universe he can do everything. Don’t beg to human beings only ask him (S.W.T) and trust him.

    This is only an excuse which many people give when they are rejected they will tell you that you will need reference because I was rejected without reference and stuff don’t believe on anything like that. I have seen many officers serving the country without a military background. So keep working hard and don’t back down from your goal Insha Allah if you are working hard and honestly you will get it.

    If you have read the article and you are satisfied to make sure you share it with your friends. Help us reach our voice to many youngsters who are struggling with their goal. keep this in mind If you want Allah all mighty to help you-you must help his creatures.

    *Assalam o alaikum
    I’m going to share my ISSB experience.
    *Reprting_DAY*
    Feb 27 was our reporting day. I reached there at 10:30 Am
    After they checked our temp, bags etc we were gaven rooms. We arranged our clothes etc. Then we waited in dinning hall after sometime they called us and we were allotted chest numbers.
    We did our lunch and then we called to Johar Hall round about at 3:00 PM
    It was form filling day. First psychologist came they guided us and we filled the forms
    Remember don’t write before they guide you because they guide you stepwise and try to write neat and clean which is readable.
    At 7:00 pm we were free.
    #Second_day( Psychologist day)
    We woke up at 5:00 am prayed nimaz, did breakfast and at 7:30 am we had to reached the Johar Hall for psychologists tests.
    They guide you before every tests so follow them
    First 2 sets of urdu sentence completion each set of 26 incomplete sentences
    2 sets of English incomplete sentences
    Word association test (WAT) 100 words each word will show on screen for 10 seconds so try to practice before ISSB with help of stopwatch.
    4 picture stories 30 seconds for thinking and 3 mints and 30 seconds for each story to write
    Then 2 pointer stories
    Then Situational reaction tests ( SRT)
    10 situations and you have 2 mints for writing each situation
    Some situations which I remember
    If ur Cousin wears modern dresses and she doesn’t stop wearing that dress what will you do?
    If your best friend has started hash he doesn’t want to stop it and if you tell to his parents he will stop friendships with you then what will u do?
    *Essay_writing*
    “your understanding on kashmir dispute and way forward”
    Self description test
    Merits and Demerits
    Psyc day finished at about 12 to 1:00 pm
    Try to write as much words, sentences as you can. Be constructive, real in each word you write because each word you write there shows your personality.
    *Day 2 ( GTO day 1)*
    We wake up at 4: 00 am, after Nimaz, breakfast etc we gathered at Johar Hall again and our GTOs came and announced chest numbers. Then we went to task area. They gave us new chest numbers and then with set in a circle and Gto gave us topic for Group discussion
    One topic to talk in English and one in Urdu
    Role of Media and its neg impact on our society
    Urdu topic wa کامیاب *ہونے کیلئے محنت سے زیادہ قسمت ضروری ہوتا ہے*؟
    Try to speak logically and with clear voice
    Give more ideas about topic don’t go outside of the topic means irrelevant things
    GTO will ask you about reference if you mention any hadith or Quran Ayat
    Be humble don’t be temper be polite with your group be kind.
    #Listen to GTO carefully don’t look here and there
    He will give you time to make a plan so cooperate with your group don’t speak unnecessary things if you don’t know the thing.
    When GTO asks who will present the plan raise your hand even if you just know 2 words
    *PROGRESSIVE_GROUP_TASK*
    Again make a plan and discuss with your group don’t shout
    Don’t be a commander because in PGT there is no commander so u hve to work as a member in with your group.
    Be cooperative, don’t stare at GTO
    #Half group task
    Group was divided in 3
    Show cooperation
    GTO first day ended and then some people were asked for psychologist interview And some for Deputy interview on same day after lunch
    I had psyc interview.
    I went for interview
    He asked me questions related to my family and life
    Be real, be natural don’t be artificial they are highly qualified in their fields one can’t play with them.
    *3rd_day*
    Remaining interviews
    I had deputy interview on this day
    In my interview there was panel of 5 people
    They asked me about my family, life and hobbies no gk etc q
    So remember what you have written in your forms
    Be natural, Be confident and be polite
    Remember your merits, demerits, hobbies they may ask you q about your hobbies in any angle so be prepared
    Current affairs, what’s going on in country and the world.
    #Remaining tasks of GTO
    *ndividual_obsticals*
    I did 6 obsticals because I was ill. I have gaven blood at college a week before ISSB and then my throat wasn’t ok so, but I tried my best and didn’t give up till last
    Your plan and mind matters more in IOs
    *Command_Task*
    Everyone was gaven opportunity of becoming commander
    My command task was a bit difficult
    I made plan
    Stick in middle but didn’t lose hope nor give up
    Your briefing matters, your plan matters
    Remember restrictions from GTO side in command task and in whole issb
    Make good plan, be a leader not a boss because leader takes team with it self and boss don’t.
    Boss say I and leader say we
    Don’t misuse your power in command task
    Listen to gto carefully
    *Final_group_task*
    Last opportunity for one to show that one has leadership’s qualities
    Your sharpness matters a lot because step by step GTO will make ground inbound for you.
    *Last*
    *Mutual Group* *Assessment*
    How you have sended your 2 days with group, your performance will make others to vote for you.
    *Some_suggestions*
    Remember Allah SWT
    Don’t cheat, don’t be artificial and you can’t be because again they check you in 3 dimensions and are highly qualified and expert in their jobs
    Work on your tests, communication skills and personality
    Pray nimaz, listen to instructions at ISSB
    Play openly say from your heart nd be true
    Respect elders and parents
    Say less but logically
