Apart from all the physical conditions, age limit, nationality, the minimum educational qualification required for Air Force and Naval in NDA is that the candidate must have passed 10+2 with Physics and Mathematics from a recognized educational board. These two subjects are compulsory for joining Air Force and Naval in NDA. If you haven't studied these subjects in your intermediate, you won't be eligible for Air Force. However, you can join Indian Army through NDA as for that there is no compulsion on subject combination. Check out this link http://competition.careers360.com/articles/nda-eligibility-criteria

Hi naresh!

Yes, biology students can apply for Air force at NDA only if you have studied mathematics and physics as compulsory subjects too in 10+2 boards . However, for Army you can apply even if you have not studied math and physics as compulsory subjects but must have cleared 10+2.

Hope this would help.

As per the eligibility criteria of NDA:-

• For Indian Army - You should have passed 12th standard from State Education Board or a University
• For Indian Air Force and Naval - You should have passed 12th standard with Physics and Mathematics from State Education Board or a University

Yes, you can apply for NDA if you are a bio student but only get into Indian Army not into Airforce or Navy.
