What are the things I need to know about the Indian Army before going for an SSB interview? Where can I learn about the various procurements, arms, services, etc.?

Remember these three points before starting your preparation for SSB.

No amount of extra curricular activities or achievements in your school/college life can guarantee you success in SSB. It is your personality and your attitude towards the things around you that will get you through.
SSB is based on OLQ’s (Officer Like Qualities) but that does not mean you need to have all of them and portray them. Most of them are developed during training. So, do not crack your head up over them.
Take it step by step. First clear your written and then focus on SSB. 2–3 months is more than enough to prepare. Remember, no amount of coaching or training can change your personality. It has to be a conscious effort from within over a long period of time.
In the recently released NDA merit list, four candidates who followed these points after a lengthy discussion with me came in the top 50 AIR.

I did not coach them. I just told them the truth and they followed it.

That is what everyone needs to do instead of blindly following everyone.
