Frequently asked questions

Is this an official UPSC question paper?

No. It is an independent practice mock containing original questions mapped to the official NDA General Ability Test English syllabus.

Why does this mock cover only the English portion of NDA's General Ability Test?

The official GAT paper is English (200 marks) plus General Knowledge (400 marks, covering Physics, Chemistry, General Science, History, Geography, and Current Events). Only the English portion is included here, since General Knowledge depends on science and current-affairs facts that carry higher correctness risk for self-authored content.

What is the minimum qualifying score in NDA's General Ability Test?

25%, meaning at least 150 out of 600 marks, cleared separately from the Mathematics paper's own 25% minimum.

Does the SSB interview matter as much as the written exam for NDA?

Yes. The SSB interview is worth 900 marks, exactly matching the written exam's 900-mark total (300 Mathematics plus 600 GAT), and both stages carry equal weight in the final merit list.
