WORD ASSOCIATION TEST(WAT) at ISSB

WORD ASSOCIATION TEST (WAT) 

Most of you have queries and confusions regarding WAT. Let me tell you briefly about WAT.It is a test in which Psychologist check your thinking capability under pressure.In ISSB before Psychological tests you will be given a file containing few pages (BLANK ,HAVING NO LINES ON THEM) for WAT,STORIES AND SELF DESCRIPTION.
In WAT you will be shown on a projector a slideshow of 100 WORDS having a gap of 10 SECONDS for each word accompanied by a BEEP SOUND.10 SEC seems to be quite enough but believe me they are not enough.You will have to work fast to catch all words. IN CASE if you are unable to attempt any word just skip it,leave that place BLANK and jump to the next word.
You will be briefed about WAT.
It is not necessary to use that specific word in your sentence....but you can also write a word related to that...!! e.g GARDEN (Garden:The garden is beautiful) or (Garden:Flowers or Colorful)

TIPS REGARDING WAT:

1:First of all please AVOID CUTTING IN WHOLE ISSB..!

2:Try to write as fast as you can in a way that your writing should be easily readable..

3:Try to make short,brief and meaningful sentences..
e.g(Sky:Sky is blue)

4:Try to avoid sentences starting from HE,SHE,THEY,WE..!!
don't go for these e.g(Steal:He steals or She steals etc) But in fact (Stealing is a crime or Stealing is a bad habit)

5:Try to make natural sentences NOT SILLY sentences...
e.g (Beautiful:Katrina is beautiful) Don't ever go for such silly sentences INSTEAD write (Beautiful:Pakistan is beautiful)

6:Try to show some love for your country in sentences
e.g(Progress:Pakistan is on way to progress) (Discipline:Army demands discipline)

Try to practice all simple words in your sentences....!!!

POINTS YOU SHOULD REMEMBER THE MOST WHILE DOING WAT IN ISSB

1:Be careful in whatever you write.

2:Don't go for such sentences which may create problem for you in Psych interview .If u make sentences like e.g (Water:I am afraid of water) Psychologist may ask you in interview that (In your normal life, Is there anything that you are afraid of???) or (Like:I like green color) Psych may ask you( Tell me a colour which you think is a sober one??? OR What is your favorite colour???) If your statement do not match with what you have written then they may give opinion regarding you that he is not truthful or not original or fake etc etc

EXAMPLE:

Afraid:

1. Ali is fearless boy.
2. I Afriad of Allah.
3. I don't afraid of death.
4. Fearless is a key to success.
5. I afraid of insult.
6. Our Army is fearless.
7. Kill your fear.
8. Solider never afraid of enemy.
9. He fought in fearless manner.

Make your by your own thinking and psychology. Hope you guys got my point.

I tried my best to be as brief as possible and cover all important factors...!!!
