 What exactly is this PPDT?


You will be shown a blur picture for 30 seconds and then given 1 minute to note down the details of the picture and 4 minutes to write the story that is appropriate with the displayed picture. You are required to observe this hazy picture meticulously within these given 30 seconds. The screening test is certainly difficult because of the competitive aspirants, your confidence level, and your intelligent quotient.

Tips for writing the story:


1. Always make sure to frame a positive story line

2. Make it realistic because anything that sounds impractical would just be very ingenuous. Avoid writing stories that include superhero or other such unrealistic characters. Also avoid typical climax such as reward-winning or too much appreciation.

3. For better perspective, imagine yourself in that picture or situation and then frame your story

4. Try to write in past tense. If pictures are naturally shown happy don’t try to forcefully incorporate a problem or negative situation. This shows your pessimistic feature.

5. Use character names wisely that are familiar to you for better remembrance. Do not use commonly used names, try something creative.

6. Do not imagine the job of your main character by yourself such as him/her being a farmer or a social activist. Only mention it when it is clear in the picture.

7. Try to include points such as what led to the current situation, what is the present condition and what your character does to overcome the problem (if any).

8. Try to inculcate some attention-grabbing twist and turns in your story that might be interesting to hear.

9. Make sure that the story sticks to the core of the picture provided. Do not write or repeat anything that is very commonly known or written earlier.

10. Always try to write a story where your Main character takes quick action rather than something that explains Future Plans.

11.   Provide happy ending.

Tips for Individual Narration:

Discussion test comprises of two sessions, viz. Individual Narration and Group Discussion. Generally, you are divided in a group of 12-14 candidates and are told to form a semicircular arrangement.


You will get time to read the story once again to yourself.  Make sure you read it without any hindrance. This will prevent you from stammering or stuttering in front of GTO or other examiners.


In Individual narration, you are given up to 1 minute to narrate your story. Here you are not supposed to look at your examiners.
