    Aspirants need to get at least 25 percent marks out of 600 in General Ability Test (GAT) and 25 percent marks out of 300 in Mathematics to qualify for NDA Written Exam. The minimum qualifying marks candidates need to secure in the written NDA exam is 25% marks in each subject. The cut off will be released to shortlist candidates for the three Defence services through the UPSC NDA 2024 selection process. To know more about the NDA 2024 cut off, candidates can read the article below. Candidates must have passed the 12th Class pass or equivalent examination conducted by a State Education Board or a University when applying for the exam.

    Yes, candidates need to secure 20 to 25 per cent in each subject of NDA exam. Besides, candidates need to secure the NDA cut off separately in the written exam and qualifying marks. The total marks allotted to the written exam are 900, the GAT section carries 600 marks and Mathematics section carries 300 marks. The SSB Interview carries 900 marks.
