Tip 1: Stop studying

Stop your studies the way you have been until now. You need to revise now. From each of the topic in maths, physics and chemistry especially, jot down all the important formulas and chant them in your free time. Formulas are the basis of calculations and can help you solve many questions. Mission NDA book can be the best source for revision.

Also in addition to that, forget all your doubts. There is no more room for any doubts at this stage. Doubts will add unnecessary pressure at this point. Concentrate on what you know and what you have learned until now and ace those topics.

Tip 2: Practice on managing time

Note that, In the first paper, mathematics there will be 120 questions. Each question is of 2.5 marks and the total time allotted to solve them is 150 minutes. You need to have a strategy to complete all the questions in the available time, it will be easier if you practice the time management using previous years question paper.

Tip 3: Plan now for what to do in the exam hall

This is what a topper would do! Yes, plan exactly what you are going to do at the exam center. Make a blueprint of the exam day strategy and practice accordingly from now on. You can apply the following:

On the exam day for the mathematics section especially, screen the paper as soon as you get the question paper. Now mark the questions as 1, 2, and 3. These marks denote 1 – attempt in the first go, 2 – attempt in the second go and 3 – attempt in the last, this will be the questions that you are less confident in and if the time is not left you can leave them.

This or a similar type of technique can be used to attempt all the questions. You just need to figure it now, and practice to see if it works and apply it on the exam day.

Tip 4: Analyse the trend

Analyze previous years’ question papers and find out the chapters/topics from which most numbers of questions are asked. As per the trend analysis, note the chapters that are on the high priority and focus on them. However, do not start any new topic, as mentioned above.

Tip 5: Practice

The hidden factor of the NDA written exam that very less realize is following “Honesty is the best policy”. Yes, in NDA written exam candidates is also judged on the number of guesses that goes wrong. If a candidates attempt 45 questions and have got 15 wrong answers proves to be a bad impression and if a candidate who attempts 30 questions and gets 28 correct, is definitely going to have a better impression.

You are attempting an exam to join the armed forces, thus you are judged on many bases and not just attempting the questions. Your answer sheet is scrutinized at so many levels. Thus, do not do guesswork in the examination.

Tip 6: Focus on only NDA level questions

Do not fidget with questions with JEE level or other national level examinations. Stick to NDA level questions. Follow the NDA previous years question papers for this purpose.

After the exam, DDE will publish the answer key for the written examination on the day of the exam itself. The answer key can be used by the candidates to get an estimate of their scores in the NDA 1 2023 exam.
