NDA

NDA - NATIONAL DEFENCE ACADEMY.
After getting selection in NDA, you could take forward your career as an army background. Based on your working activity, you get promoted to various posts in the army.

Yes, you can give the NDA exam during your class 12th, but you have to present your passing certificate or marksheet of class 12th during the SSB interview. So, giving NDA exam during class 12th will surely be helpful to you, as you would get a good idea about the pattern and level of written test. But, it will not be valuable for your selection, as you will not be eligible for SSB interview. In a nutshell, though you would not be selected, but I recommend you to surely give the NDA test at least once during your class 12th.

There is no such percentage required for NDA. Just pass in 12th standard is sufficient to apply for NDA Exam. Regards.

Yes, try re-appearing for the same and score good marks.

The selection procedure remains the same because you are ultimately going to join for the same position. After being graduated you will get the chance to serve the forces as a technical engineer. NDA entry allows you to serve as an officer after 10+2, And as Sipahi after class 10. This allows you to enter the permanent commission in defence forces. After CDS you get entry usually in short service commission. NDA and CDS takes you to SSB before you finally get recommended. AFCAT leads you to AFSB before you for finally get recommended for the position applied.

The result of NDA (1) 2018 is coming in the end of July. For information, visit UPSC's official website.

NDA and CPL both tests you to be interpersonal strong. And hence a similar approach is kept in selecting cadets / candidates for them!

Hello there,
To prepare for NDA, you need to study daily for at least 4 hours a day with your studies. Read general awareness, Maths, Physics and Chemistry with basic points and formulae, read English newspaper to be strong in English vocabulary. Practice sample paper daily. You can sample paper from internet or can buy NDA exam books as well.

It's good that you want to go to NDA. In my opinion, please don't drop and continue your UG course and with that you should prepare for NDA also and if you clear the written exam, then you should go for coaching of SSB at Col. Dagar Academy, Gurgaon as this is the top coaching institute for SSB in India. The duration of coaching will be only 15 days and it will not affect your UG studies also. And you should apply for Technical Entry Scheme (TES) whose form is available on:

If you got selected, then there will be direct SSB for you and no written exam is needed for this.
