| Subject | Duration | Maximum Marks |
|---|---|---|
| Mathematics | 2½ Hours | 300 |
| General Ability Test | 2½ Hours | 600 |
| Total | 5 Hours | 900 |
The General Ability Test (GAT) and Mathematics are the two papers that make up the NDA exam. GAT carries 600 marks, and mathematics carries 300. There are 150 questions on the GAT and 120 in Mathematics.
There are two versions of the question paper: Hindi and English. The English Language paper, however, needs to be completed in English.
Admission to both the Naval Academy (INA) and the National Defense Academy (NDA) is determined by a very demanding exam called the National Defense Academy (NDA) Exam.
What is SSB?
The purpose of the extensive SSB (Services Selection Board) interview is to evaluate candidates' suitability for a career in the Indian Armed Forces on the mental, physical, and psychological levels. A range of examinations, such as psychological assessments, group talks, individual interviews, and physical testing, are part of this demanding interview procedure. Only a small number of applicants succeed in this demanding selection procedure and are accepted into the esteemed NDA or INA (Indian Naval Academy) due to the tough nature of the NDA (National Defence Academy) Exam.
