What happens after the written exam?
The UPSC NDA selection process is divided into two main stages: A written test followed by the Services Selection Board (SSB) interview. After the written exam results are published, a merit list will be prepared, and shortlisted candidates will be called for the SSB interview.
The written exam comprised two papers, each lasting 150 minutes — Mathematics, carrying 300 marks, and the General Ability Test (GAT), worth 600 marks. All questions were objective-type, and the papers were available in both Hindi and English.
The SSB interview, which assesses intelligence and personality, is also conducted in two stages and carries a total of 900 marks. Only those candidates who successfully clear the first stage will proceed to the second. Moreover, candidates aiming for admission into the Air Force must pass the Computerised Pilot Selection System (CPSS) evaluation.
