NDA is conducted twice a year by the UPSC. Candidate should be 12th passed or 12th appearing.
Candidate with science stream PCM as their subjects are eligible for all three wings, while candidate with other stream or subjects are only eligible for Army wings.
For more information, refer to the given link:
www.upsc.gov.in

Eligibility for NDA:-

is for 10+2 qualified students. The services (Army Navy Air force) depend on what subject you took in 10+2 - physics, maths etc. So, if you are still studying in school, 10+2, you have the doors open. I suggest you check the NDA and UPSC sites for eligibility criteria and other details

And If you are a medical student at a medical college, pursuing MBBS, NDA is not the route for you. In all probability, you would have crossed the age limit. You can join the armed forces as a doctor though, post completion of your MBBS or even after your specialization.
