Hello,

Yes, candidates appearing for their Class 12 exams are eligible to apply for the NDA (National Defence Academy) exam, provided they meet the age and educational requirements. For the Army Wing, candidates should either have passed or be appearing for their Class 12 examination from a recognized board. For the Air Force and Naval Wings, they must have studied Physics and Mathematics in Class 12. Additionally, candidates must meet the age criteria, typically between 16.5 and 19.5 years at the start of the course.

Being in Class 12 allows you to apply for the exam, but your selection is conditional upon passing the board exams before the NDA training begins. Ensure you meet all eligibility criteria, including physical and medical standards, and provide accurate details during the application process. This allows students in their final year of schooling to secure their position and join the academy after completing their Class 12 exams.
