    yes, my friend you can appear for NDA exam twice in the same year. as you know NDA exam is conducted twice as NDA-I in April and NDA-II in August months of every year. and you can write both the exams in same year.

    but why you are thinking that you can't pass out NDA-I exam. you have to beleive in your self and prepare well for the exam. do hard work and hope you will be selected in your first attempt.

    NDA is conducted for the posts in NAVY, Army and air force. for NDA you have 12th with physics, Chemistry and Mathematics or equivalent from recognized Board or College.

    your age must be within 16.5 years to 19 years.

    you have to apply for the exam online on following link:

    Good Luck......

    Re: Can a candidate appear in NDA exam twice in the same year?

    Definitely because it is just an examination which is conducted twice in a year so there is no boundation for the candidates to apply for the same , and also there is no limit to apply for this examination.
    If you want to know the eligibility criteria then see below-
    NDA stands for the national defence academy which is conducted 2 times in a single year.
    Age required to apply for this exam ios 16.5 to 19 years.
    You cannot get the age relaxation because there is no age relaxation provided to the candidates in the defence services.
    You must have 12th passed with any stream for the indian army.
    Or if you want to be a air force or navy officer then you need to have 12th passed with the physics and mathematics.
    You should not involved ion any criminal activity.
    You also need to be indian by nationality.
    selection procedure for the same is as follows-
    Written examination
    SSB interview.
    Medical examination.
    For more details log on to www.upsc.gov.in
    Thank you.
