Hello Aspirant,

NO!

You cannot appear for NDA just after your 10th standard. There are age criteria and minimum educational background criteria that you will need to fulfill before appearing for the NDA exam.

Your age should be between 16.5 years to 19.5 years which I wont think is possible when you have just passed your 10th class. Moreover, you will need to show either your 12th pass certificate or a certificate signed by your school principle that you are studying in 12th class.

But don’t worry! You can already start preparing for the exam. This way you will have an advantage as compared to other candidates. Also, you will be able to crack the NDA exam in the very first attempt if you study well.

All The Best.
