Hello student,

Yes, you can pursue your board exams through NIOS (National Institute of Open Schooling) after taking a drop year for JEE Mains and NDA. Here’s how it works:

1. Eligibility : NIOS is a recognized board and accepts students who wish to complete their secondary or senior secondary education. Your previous attempts at CBSE do not affect your eligibility for NIOS.
   
   

2. JEE Mains and NDA : NIOS certificates are generally accepted for entrance exams like JEE Mains and NDA, provided you meet their specific eligibility criteria. Ensure that you verify the latest guidelines from JEE Mains and NDA authorities.
   
   

3. Admission : Apply to NIOS and complete their registration and examination process. Prepare thoroughly for your JEE Mains and NDA while pursuing your NIOS courses.
   
   

4. Documentation : Keep all documentation and records from NIOS and your previous attempts to avoid any issues during application or verification processes for future studies or exams.

As long as you meet the eligibility requirements and follow the necessary procedures, there should be no significant issues moving forward with NIOS.

If you did not pay for registration but your application status indicates "COMPLETED," you should take the following actions:-

1. Speak with the Exam Authority: Speak with the body in charge of administering the NDA 2 test or the National Defence Academy (NDA) exam authority.

2. Describe the Problem: Despite the status being full, you did not finish the payment procedure.

3. Ask for Help: Make a request for direction on the next steps. They can ask you to resubmit the payment via a certain procedure, or they might provide you guidance on how to correct the payment status.

4.Comply with Instructions: To guarantee that your registration is successful and that you may take the test without any problems, adhere to any instructions given by the exam administrators as soon as possible.

The eligibility criteria for NDA and CDS medical exams can vary slightly, but generally, a normal bend in the left middle finger should not be a significant issue.

However, it's essential to consult with the official medical boards or authorities responsible for conducting the medical examinations for NDA and CDS. They will have specific guidelines regarding physical fitness and medical standards that need to be met.
