CDS exam held twice in a year and a student who is in final year of his/her degree course can apply for CDS exam.

The ratio of selection is 1:19 it means competition is very high and hardwork with determination is the only key to clear the exam.

You can look at the previous year paper
1. CSAT by Arihant publishers
2. Reasoning Ability -RS Aggarwal
3. English Newspaper-TOI
4. Basic Mathematics

Passing of written exam is just a single first step, you need to well prepare yourself for 5 days interview.

On the basis of the results of the Combined Defence Services Examination (I)-2013 held by the Union Public Service Commission On 17 February, 2013, 9888 candidates have qualified for being interviewed by the Service Selection Board of the Ministry of Defence, for admission to

(i) Indian Military Academy, Dehradun 136th
(ii) Indian Naval Academy, Ezhimala, Course commencing in January, 2014 (iii) Air Force Academy, Hyderabad (Pre-Flying)
(iv) Officers’ Training Academy, Chennai 99th SSC Course (for Men)
(v) Officers’ Training Academy, Chennai, 13th SSC Women (Non-Technical) Course commencing in April, 2014.
