Hello,

National Defence Academy (NDA) is for the combined training of all three wings of the Armed Forces, i.e Army, Navy and Airforce.

But, the NDA/NA (I) - 2020 exam offers admissions into three wings of NDA along with Naval Academy also based on the preference of the candidate.

The NDA/NA written test is conducted twice a year. They are named as NDA/NA (I) 2020 and NDA/NA (II) 2020 for this year.

The exam has 2 papers. One is in forenoon session and the other in afternoon. The first is Maths and the second GAT. You have to clear the cutoff for both the papers separately.
