    Re: Difference between NDA 1 and NDA 2?

    Hi, there is no difference between NDA 1 and NDA 2.The thing is that UPSC conducts NDA examination in 2 parts at 2 different times in a year.NDA 1 examination is held in April month of year whereas NDA 2 is held in August or September month of year.But procedure for selection in both examination is same.

    Thank you and all the best

    there is no difference between NDA-I and NDA-II. both the exams are conducted for the posts in Indian Defence. through NDA-I and NDA-II a large number of vacancies are filled in Defence. It is just an NDA exam. It is conducted twice a year because there are large number of vacancies in defence. So to identify this NDA exam is divided in NDA-I and NDA-II. generally NDA-I is conducted in April Month and NDA-II is conducted in August month.

    for NDA you need 12th and your age must be within 16.5 years to 19 years.The exam is conducted for only male candidates.


    Good Luck.......

    • Many students thinks that NDA I and NDA II are different, but the fact is that both are same examination.
    • Both the NDA I and NDA II examination are conducted by UPSC every year.
    • You must know that NDA examination is conducted twice a year, when it conducted first time it's called Nda I and when it conducted second time it's called NDA II.
    • There is no difference in eligibility creitria for both the examination.
    • Even examination pattern and further selection process are same.

    Hi
    The NDA exam is conducted by the upsc twice in an year.
    The exam which is conducted in the former part of the year is known as NDA I whereas the exan\m which is conducted in the latter half of the year is known as NDA II.
    As such there is no difference in between them on the basis of difficulty or the number of attempts, you can give it both the time.
    You just need to be a 12th class passed/appeared and your age should be in between 16.5-19 years.
    There is no relaxation provided to any category.
    Gud luck

    Dear Aspirant

    National Defence Academy (NDA) examination conducted by UPSC every year for recruitment of candidates every year for defence services in Army,Air Force and Naval Services.Generally students who have passed twelfth are giving this examination with Physics,Chemistry and Mathematcis as their subject.

    There is no big difference between both the exams.Neither there is difference in the examination pattern,syllabus of the examination nor there is difference in eligibility criteria.Only point is that selection procedure carried by UPSC for NDA are conducted twice in year.First the examination is conducted in the month of April and the other one is conducted in the month of September generally.

    You may get the exact date of examination from UPSC officially websites(www.upsc.gov.in).Since there is limited age criteria is there for the examination and candidates require is more so you may think that is why they conduct examination twice in a year.Giving more opportunity to candidates.So instead of worrying start prepraing for the examination.

    Dear friend,

    There is no as such difference between these exams.

    NDA stands for National Defence Academy.

    The exam is conducted by UPSC twice in a year and hence named as NDA I and NDA II.

    These exams are conducted for the entry into 3 wings of defence i.e, Army, Airforce and Navy.

    Pattern of exams is same for both the exams.

    The difference lies in the only thing that they are conducted at two different times in a year.

    NDA I is conducted during april month and its notification is out in december every month.

    NDA II is conducted during August - September of every month.


    PATTERN OF EXAM:-




    ELIGIBILITY FOR NDA I AND NDA II EXAM IS SAME:-

    You must have completed your 10+2 from a recognised board.

    You must have PCM as compulsory subjects.

    Your age should be between 16.5 to 19 yrs.

    Only unmarried male candidates are eligible to sit for the exam.
