https://exams.nta.nic.in/sainik-school-society/AISSEE is the entrance exam for Sainik Schools - residential schools that prepare students (both boys and girls) for entry into the National Defence Academy and Indian Naval Academy, among other career paths. This covers Class 9 entry; Sainik Schools also admit at Class 6, a separate and much larger stream not covered here.
Mode
Offline (pen-and-paper, OMR-based)
Conducted by NTA on behalf of the Sainik Schools Society. Covers Mathematics, English, Intelligence, General Science, and Social Studies.
A merit list is prepared state-wise and school-wise from the AISSEE score, followed by a medical fitness check - final admission also factors in category and defence-personnel-dependent reservations specific to Sainik Schools.
The official notification for this cycle hasn’t been released yet, so there’s nothing to verify against - everything above is an estimate based on past years. Always confirm on the official website once it’s released.
