Preparing for the NDA (National Defence Academy) exam involves more than just cracking the written test — it’s about building the right mindset for the SSB interview as well. Many candidates make the mistake of preparing for both stages separately, but the ideal approach is to integrate your preparation for a better outcome.
Start by mastering the fundamentals of mathematics, English, and general science for the written test. Stick to NCERT books and practice previous years’ papers. Simultaneously, build your personality traits and communication skills — the key focus of the SSB interview. Reading newspapers and staying updated with current affairs also helps you in both exams and the interview.
Join a coaching institute or online test series that provides mock tests, group discussions, and regular practice. Physical fitness is equally important — ensure daily workouts and team activities.
By preparing smartly and balancing written and interview readiness, you increase your chances of becoming a cadet at the prestigious NDA.
