Hello Preeti,

The age limit for SBI Clerk and IBPS Clerk 2025 is usually 20 to 28 years , with age relaxation for reserved categories.

Since you were born on October 5, 1996 , you will be 29 years old in 2025. This means you will not be eligible for these exams under the general category. However, if you belong to a reserved category (like OBC, SC, ST, etc.), you may get age relaxation.

Hope it helps !

Hello,

According to the eligibility criteria for the NDA 2, the age limit is between January 2, 2005, and January 1, 2008. Unfortunately, with a DOB of 03/09/2008, you are not eligible for NDA 2. You'll need to wait until you meet the age requirements.

Hello candidate ,

I hope you are doing well. As per your mentioned query , according to NDA exam eye defect can be considered but they consider only mild level of it.

I hope this helps !!

Hello,

You cannot appear for the NDA 2026 exam because the NDA eligibility of minimum age requirement is 16.5 years at the time of application, and you will be only 16 years old in January 2026 .

For NDA 2026 , candidates must be born between July 2, 2007, and July 1, 2010 (tentative range) . Since your birthdate is January 16, 2010 , you will not be eligible .

Hope it helps !

Hello!

Your interest in joining NDA (National Defence Academy) creates enthusiasm. Hindi medium students lack no disadvantage because NDA offers its examinations in both languages apart from English.

NDA Exam Pattern:

The written exam consists of:

1. Mathematics – Available in Hindi & English

2. General Ability Test (GAT) – Available in Hindi & English, except for the English section

After clearing the written examination you must appear at the SSB Services Selection Board Interview where psychological tests and group discussions as well as personal interviews will be administered. The English content of the interview dominates but you have freedom to use Hindi when you feel more comfortable.

How to Prepare as a Hindi Medium Student?

Pay attention to English language basics because they matter most for the interview process.

Students who are Hindi medium learners should adopt NCERT books for their Hindi-language mathematics and general studies.

Using Hindi language will help you solve previous years NDA papers to become familiar with the examination structure.

The majority of NDA training centers offer Hindi-based study materials which students should follow.

No matter what educational medium you learned from your education will not influence your selection process. Your selection depends only on obtaining knowledge while developing confidence and exhibiting personality. Working with dedication alongside your hard efforts will enable you to join the Indian Armed Forces.
