Idk if NDA aspirants are much there in number in this sub or IAT exam, But I am considering to start preparing for IISER instead of nda. i have done my part of research for the exam, i'm aware about the evergrowing competition here , but lately now that my boards are over , i feel that IAT is a much safer alternative for me , i am ready to give it my all , i have never backed of from studying for hours. BUT my question is , is it a good decision ? i can crack nda written exam while preparing for IAT , but i for sure cannot crack IAT while preparing for NDA. NDA offers me 0.033% of selection ratio, while IAT offers about 1.8% , far better. if I get any IISER, i can still pursue my dream of indian army through CDS , AFCAT , Coast Guard entry.
I just need a second opinion to know if this decision is right
ALSO i have once already passed the NDA written Exam (got out in interview in last day)
