Which is more difficult among NDA & IIT JEE exams?
-
If you compare written papers only JEE exam is tougher in comparison to NDA examination. But NDA become more tougher overall as you have to clear Services Selection Board ( SSB) and Medical in addition to written test. Rejection ratio even on clearing written test is very high at SSB and Medical stage. -

6 years agoIITJEE is difficult to clear it. Selection in IIT JEE is based on written exam only while that in NDA is based on written + 6 days SSB Interview + Stringent Medical Test. IIT JEE does not test a candidates leadership skills but NDA does. The no. Of seats in NDA (around 320) is much lower than IIT JEE. Although candidates appearing is also less. -
In my opinion, IIT-JEE is difficult to clear, but since these two-NDA & IIT-JEE are totally different, one can't give a comparison.

Hello,
It's not comparable, IIT's reputation is very high, while NDA is at another level.
Good luck. -
If it is about written exam, then definitely JEE is tougher. But, if it is about being selected completely in NDA, then it involves SSB interview, which is considered the toughest one and the training of NDA. So, overall NDA is tougher except written.
