What the SRT involves
In the Situation Reaction Test you receive a set of situations — typically 60 — and about 30 minutes to write how you would react to each. Responses are meant to be short and practical: what you would actually do.
How SRT practice works on SSB Psych Buddy
You can practise in two timing modes:
- 30 seconds per situation — each situation is shown on its own and the next appears automatically after 30 seconds.
- Overall time — you get 30 seconds for every situation you selected as one combined budget (for example, 30 minutes for 60 situations). You move to the next situation yourself, so you can spend longer on some and less on others, as you would with a booklet.
In both modes there is no countdown clock on screen. Sectional and complete mock tests use the standard 60 situations in 30 minutes.
Situations are drawn in a balanced way and never repeat within a set. You write your reactions on paper; nothing is stored.
Getting more out of SRT practice
- Write the action you would take, not a long explanation.
- Try to attempt every situation in the time you have.
- Practise both modes: per-situation timing builds speed; overall timing builds pacing.
