NDA aspirants must understand the difference between competitive and academic level. Merely by getting a good command over academic level is not sufficient to crack a competitive exam. there are different skills set required for competition. One must focus on quickness and efficiency on solving analytical problems of mathematics. Competitive approach requires more and more practical questions rather than concepts. It is important to have a good hands on experience on variety of questions. One must go for wide scope of content coverage rather than learning the intro and basic levels of the topics.
3.Systematic Plan for Learning

Thinking goes on cleared steps and thinking process keeps adding further points to it.
6.Previous years test papers of NDA exam
Understanding the existing footprints may give you the idea of upcoming challenges. One should try to solve previous years test paper at least of 10 years.

If the idea is drawn from these papers, one starts picking questions in the same manner.

Recalling concepts makes you clear about the availability of the content with you. You may collect many concepts in queue of your brain but these topics are not rehearsed and revised well then efforts may go in vain. After some span of time the retention of the topics start going on the wane but revision of the same brings freshness.
8.Breaks in Learning process
Regular work without relaxation may make it quite exhaustive. It is suggested to find gap or go for walk in between the learning process. These activities basically refresh the content and make you more energetic to proceed further. Learning is an art and should be pursued with creativity.
