How to Crack NDA in First Attempt: Proven Strategy by Chanakya Career Institute

Are you dreaming of donning the prestigious uniform of the Indian Armed Forces? The National Defence Academy (NDA) exam is your gateway to turning that dream into reality. Every year, lakhs of aspirants appear for the NDA exam, but only a few make it in the very first attempt. So, what’s the secret to success?

At Chanakya Career Institute, the best NDA coaching institute in India, we’ve helped hundreds of students clear the NDA exam in their first attempt. Here’s your step-by-step roadmap to success.

 

Step 1: Understand the NDA Exam Pattern Thoroughly

Before starting your preparation, it’s essential to know the structure of the NDA exam:

Written Exam

  • Mathematics: 120 Questions – 300 Marks
  • General Ability Test (GAT): 150 Questions – 600 Marks Duration: 2.5 hours each paper

SSB Interview: 900 Marks

Total: 1800 Marks

Knowing the pattern helps you plan your time and prioritize topics effectively.

 

Step 2: Build a Strong Foundation in Core Subjects

At Chanakya, we emphasize conceptual clarity, not rote learning.

  • Mathematics – Focus on NCERT Class 11 & 12 books. Practice regularly with previous year papers.
  • English – Improve grammar, vocabulary, and comprehension through daily practice. General Knowledge – Read newspapers, current affairs magazines, and revise subjects like History, Polity, Geography, and Science.

 

Step 3: Develop a Smart Study Plan

A well-structured study timetable is your best friend. We advise students to:

  • Study 6 days a week, 6-8 hours a day
  • Allot specific hours to each subject
  • Reserve weekends for revision and mock tests

At Chanakya Career Institute, our faculty provides customized study plans tailored to each student’s learning pace and exam goals.

 

Step 4: Practice with Mock Tests & Previous Year Papers

Regular mock tests help you:

  • Understand the type of questions asked
  • Improve speed and accuracy
  • Build exam temperament and confidence

Our test series at Chanakya simulates the real NDA exam environment and helps students analyse their strengths and weaknesses.
