About the Daily SSB Challenge
The Daily SSB Challenge on ssbpractice.in is a free 15-minute daily warm-up for Services Selection Board aspirants preparing for NDA, CDS, AFCAT, TES, TGC, SSC Tech, INET, ACC and University Entry Scheme (UES) boards. Every day you get a brand new cross-section of the Day-1 and Day-2 SSB psychology battery, timed the way an assessor would run it.

Why practise daily?
SSB boards are won by habit, not cramming. Fifteen focused minutes a day beat a seven-hour session once a week — the stimuli stay fresh, your OLQs show up under time pressure, and midnight-IST resets give you a visible streak. The daily challenge pairs with the longer 4-week prep planner and the 5-day SSB process guide.
Writing happens on paper, not in the browser
Just like the real SSB, you write PPDT, WAT and SRT on paper. The browser only shows the picture or word and runs the clock — only the OIR MCQ options are tapped on screen. Nothing you write is uploaded or stored beyond your own browser.
Daily SSB Challenge FAQ
What is the Daily SSB Challenge?
The Daily SSB Challenge is a free 15-minute daily warm-up for SSB aspirants on ssbpractice.in. Each day it generates one fresh practice set — 1 PPDT picture, 5 Word Association Test (WAT) words, 5 Situation Reaction Test (SRT) situations, 5 Officer Intelligence Rating (OIR) questions and 1 Personal Interview question — so you build a steady daily habit for NDA, CDS, AFCAT, TES, TGC, SSC Tech and INET SSB preparation.
When does the daily challenge reset?
The challenge resets at 00:00 IST (midnight Asia/Kolkata) every day. Your progress for the current day is saved locally in your browser and is preserved until midnight IST, even if you close the tab. From midnight IST a brand new set is picked for the new day.
Do I need to sign up or create an account?
No. Nothing is sent to a server. No account, no email, no password. All answers you record (and the OIR you tap) are stored only in your own browser’s localStorage. Clearing site data on your device also clears your daily history.
Where do I write my PPDT story, WAT sentences and SRT reactions?
On paper, just like the real SSB. The browser only shows the picture or stimulus and runs the clock — the actual writing is done offline in your SSB rough book. Only the OIR Multiple-Choice-Question options are tapped on screen.
How is the Daily SSB Challenge different from the full simulators?
The full /ppdt, /tat, /wat, /srt and /oir simulators run the complete SSB-length tests (for example 60 WAT words or 60 SRT situations). The Daily SSB Challenge is a short 15-minute cross-section intended for daily consistency, not for timing endurance. Think of it as the gym warm-up before a longer session.
Is the Daily SSB Challenge an official SSB test?
No. ssbpractice.in has no affiliation with the Services Selection Board or the Indian Armed Forces. Every page on the site, including the Daily SSB Challenge, is an independent educational simulator for self-practice.
Can I use the Daily SSB Challenge offline?
Partially — the OIR questions and the Personal Interview question are drawn from a local bank and work offline once the page has loaded. The PPDT picture and the WAT / SRT lists are fetched fresh from api.ssbpractice.in each day, so an internet connection is needed for the initial generation.
