Psychological Assessment

Final Group Task (FGT)

What is Checked

The **Final Group Task (FGT)** is the final outdoor barrier. It evaluates group adjustment, quiet coordination, integrity, and confirmatory team alignment.

  • Group Cohesion: Working silently as a single unit without shouting or dominance.
  • Social Adjustment: Letting quiet or passive candidates take leading roles and supporting them.
  • Physical Integrity: Compliance with out-of-bounds rules despite high physical exhaustion.

Methodology

  • Single Obstacle: One moderate difficulty bridging barrier (equivalent to PGT Stage 2).
  • Group Effort: The entire team of 8 candidates and the load box must cross.
  • Time Limit: Strictly 10 to 15 minutes (900 seconds).
  • Confirmatory Assessment: GTO verifies early character assessments and maps social integration.

Advice to Candidates

  • Quiet Helper: Do not dominate. Keep commands low-key. Let others lead if you have been highly active in PGT.
  • Integrity: If someone touches red ground, immediately self-report, step back, and reset the bridge.
  • Liveliness: Show a positive attitude and smiling face to demonstrate mental and physical resilience.
