Tips to crack NDA & NA (II) 2018 Written Exam

The Indian army is the world’s third largest and its soldiers are considered best, especially in high altitude battles. The management of the armed forces rests with the Union Ministry of Defence.
The National Defence Academy (NDA), which is located at Chandigarh, is the first tri-service academy in the world. Here, the cadets of the three services (Army, Navy and Air Force) get training together before their pre-commissioning training in respective service academies.
The recruitment of applicants to the NDA is done by the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) by conducting the written exam followed by extensive interviews. After clearing all rounds in the interview, the final merit list is prepared and the selection is done after the medical process and document verification. Applicants to join the Air Force go through a Pilot Aptitude Battery Test.
The focus of the present article is to provide some tips to help candidates to qualify the written examination of NDA which is conducted twice in a year.
