The Gateway to Glory: NDA Written & SSB Training

The National Defence Academy (NDA) is the first tri-service academy in the world, where cadets of the three services—the Army, the Navy, and the Air Force—train together before they go on to their respective service academies for further pre-commissioning training. Joining the NDA after the 12th standard is the most prestigious entry point into the Indian Armed Forces.

NDA Coaching

Why NDA Preparation is Critical Post-12th

The transition from school to a military environment requires more than just academic knowledge. It demands a transformation of character. At Udaan Defence Academy, we provide a structured environment that mimics the discipline and rigors of the academy. Our program is designed to handle the dual pressure of the UPSC written exam and the subsequent 5-day SSB interview process.

Comprehensive Written Exam Strategy

The written exam is conducted by UPSC twice a year (NDA I and NDA II). It consists of two objective-type papers. Our teaching methodology focuses on conceptual clarity followed by rapid-fire problem-solving techniques.

Paper I: Mathematics

The 300-mark math paper is the deciding factor. We cover:

  • Calculus: Limits, Derivatives, and Integrals (High weightage)
  • Algebra: Complex numbers, Matrices, and Determinants
  • Trigonometry: Identities and Inverse functions
  • Statistics: Probability and Data Interpretation
Paper II: GAT

The 600-mark General Ability Test covers:

  • English (200 Marks): Grammar, Vocabulary, Reading skills
  • General Science (200 Marks): Physics, Chemistry, Biology
  • Social Sciences (200 Marks): History, Geography, Polity
  • Current Affairs: National & International events

Detailed Syllabus Breakdown

Our mathematics module is divided into 15 intensive chapters. We provide proprietary shortcut formulas for Integration and Probability which save nearly 30-40 seconds per question. Regular speed tests ensure that students can attempt at least 80-90 out of 120 questions with 90% accuracy.

General Ability Test is where students can maximize their score. We emphasize English Grammar as it is the most scoring part. For Social Studies, we use visual aids and storytelling methods to make History and Geography memorable. The Science section is taught by subject experts focusing on application-based questions asked by UPSC.

NDA After 12th FAQ (Exhaustive)

A candidate must be between 16.5 to 19.5 years old on the day the course commences at NDA. It is advisable to start preparation as soon as possible to maximize attempts.

Yes, there are strict height, weight, and vision standards. For example, the minimum height required for the Army is 157 cm. We provide regular physical check-ups to ensure our students meet these requirements.

While self-study is possible, coaching provides the necessary discipline, shortcuts for math, and the personality grooming required for the SSB, which is difficult to achieve alone.

Since 2021, female candidates are fully eligible to join NDA. They undergo the same training as male cadets and are commissioned into various branches of the Army, Navy, and Air Force.

Typically, there are around 400 seats per intake (approx. 208 for Army, 42 for Navy, and 120 for Air Force including 28 for Ground Duties). Competition is tough, making professional coaching essential.
