Admission in any of the defence force is not based on percentage rather this is based on the entrance exam taken by UPSC such as National Defence Academy (NDA) and Combined Defence Service exam. These are competitive exam and you need to qualify as well as complete other formalities. NDA is after 12th where if you get selected you will also do graduation along with your training whereas CDS leads to OTA and other routes after graduation.
