Approach
one rapid pass over high-weight topics, with a short review of the weakest

This 2-week plan gives you 14 days to work through 23 weighted NDA topics across 2 subjects — roughly 1.6 new topics a day at 6–8 hours of focused study. That pace is brisk but survivable if you protect your highest-weight subjects first.

NDA marks are not spread evenly across subjects. Mathematics and GAT carry the heaviest weightage in recent papers, so this plan front-loads them — so they get your first and best hours, before fatigue sets in. Cover weight 4–5 topics properly. Touch weight-3 topics only if you finish early; skip weight 1–2 entirely.

14 days is enough for one disciplined pass over the high-weight portion of NDA, not the full 23-topic syllabus. The trap is starting too slow. Begin with the heaviest subjects on day one — you do not have a buffer week.

What to prioritise & cut

Cover weight 4–5 topics properly. Touch weight-3 topics only if you finish early; skip weight 1–2 entirely.

Mock tests & revision

Sit two or three timed previous-year papers in the second half and review every wrong answer the same day.

Weekly rhythm

Front-load new learning into the first 60% of days; reserve the last 40% for previous-year papers and error review.

NDA 2-Week Plan — common questions

Is 14 days enough to prepare for NDA? +

14 days is enough for one disciplined pass over the high-weight portion of NDA, not the full 23-topic syllabus. The honest answer depends on your starting point, but this 2-week plan is built to get the most from the time you have: one fast, weight-prioritised pass over what actually appears on the paper.

How many hours a day does this NDA 2-week plan need? +

Plan for 6–8 hours of focused study, covering about 1.6 new topics a day. Front-load new learning into the first 60% of days; reserve the last 40% for previous-year papers and error review.

What should I skip if I am short on time? +

Cover weight 4–5 topics properly. Touch weight-3 topics only if you finish early; skip weight 1–2 entirely.

When should I start mock tests on this plan? +

Sit two or three timed previous-year papers in the second half and review every wrong answer the same day.
