To excel in the NDA exam, understanding its pattern is crucial. The NDA written exam consists of two papers: Mathematics (300 marks) and General Ability Test (GAT – 600 marks). Mathematics tests your problem-solving skills, while GAT covers English, General Knowledge, Physics, Chemistry, History, Geography, and Current Affairs. Both papers are objective-type with negative marking. Clearing the written exam is followed by the SSB Interview, which assesses your personality, communication skills, leadership qualities, and physical fitness. At Shield Defence Academy in Lucknow, we provide a clear understanding of the exam pattern, targeted coaching, regular mock tests, and complete SSB preparation—ensuring you are fully ready for the NDA.
