In two days’ time you’ll be writing the National Defence Academy and Naval Academy Examination (I) 2022. Knowing what you can and can’t do in the exam hall is going to make a difference and save valuable time.
Important things to keep in mind in the exam hall:
Negative marking for wrong answers
Incorrect answers in objective type question papers will result in negative marking. Carefully consider all the questions and then attempt the ones that seem the most doable. Try the other questions only when you are done with what’s within your grasp.
Banned items
A number of objects are prohibited in the exam hall. If you bring them in, your candidature will be revoked.
Write your own paper
You must write the papers on your own. You can’t use a scribe to write your answers under any circumstances.
Choose the right kind of pen
Follow Covid-19 guidelines
If you do not wear a mask or face cover, you will be denied access to the venue. You can bring your own hand sanitiser in clear bottles in the exam hall. It’s important to adhere to social distancing and personal hygiene standards both inside the exam hall and on the premises.
Keep an eye on the watch
If you manage your time efficiently during the exam, it will reflect on your result. Be mindful of how much you can accomplish in the time allocated. You can read the questions and think about them for a while. Don't skip a question in order to spend more time on another.
Read the question paper carefully
Read the questions thoroughly before beginning to write. Don't be surprised if everyone else starts writing as soon as they get the question paper. Take your time studying the paper. Read "Special Instructions" in Appendix-III of the Examination Notice attentively before your April 10 exam.
Revise your answers
Before you submit the answer script, read your answers to make sure you don't make any silly mistakes. You can also make last-minute changes to some of your responses.
