The NDA 1 cutoff in 2022 was 720 for the final selection and 360 for the written exam (with at least 25 percent of the possible points in each topic). The NDA 1 Cut Off 2023 is 301 out of 1800 for the written exam, with at least 25% of the marks in each subject. Of those marks, 664 are obtained by the last recommended applicant (Final Stage) out of 1800. The National Defense Academy (NDA) exam is notoriously difficult, with a scant 0.1% of candidates passing it. This implies that applicants may need to make several tries before they succeed. There will be 900 marks for the NDA written exam and 900 marks for the NDA SSB.
