    Hope this helps.

    Dear aspirant hope you are a doing well..

    As my opinion it's not a good idea to prepare  for both at the same time, I suggest that once you clear your D. U entrance examination and take admission in law college of delhi university, then you have sufficient time to prepare for the CDS exam, As I know many of the engineering student / b. Tech students prepare for the UPSC simultaneously the Accademy session. So you may also prepare for the CDS examination simultaneously with your Academic session.

    thank you




    To clear CDS, you must earn at least 20 marks in all subjects, which is the sectional cutoff, and 115 points in all three papers combined, which are English, General Knowledge/Studies/Awareness, and Maths. Of course, if you want to join the Air Force, you should aim for a score of roughly 145/300. However, for Army and Navy, a score of 115/300 should sufficient, though the higher the number, the better.


    English - Solve all Previous years papers of CDS

    GK - Lucent’s or Arihant's General Knowledge and Study Capsules for Polity and Geography should do the trick if you’re lazy, otherwise I’d recommend NCERT (Classes 9–12) + Indian Polity by M Laxmikanth also The Hindu Newspaper for Current Affairs and Editorials.

    Mathematics: Quantitative Aptitude by R S Aggarwal and M Tyra for high speed shortcuts will work best.

    For TGS you just have to prepare for ssb.


    Afcat- exam is more static Knowledge based.

    Maths (18 ques): basic 10th level Maths is asked

    Gk: static gk based on current affairs

    English : solve previous year papers

    Reasoning : You can solve any book for reasoning as practice is the key here.
