I joined Nimbus Defence Academy just after my 11th class in April and started my preparation for the written exam to be held in September (postponed to November). The Teachers at Nimbus were very supportive. They cleared my every doubt even during holidays. We got individual attention and weekly feedback on our performance and our weak areas were discussed. Tests were regular according to the schedule. The study material provided by NIMBUS was very helpful & attempting questions from Nimbus books boosted my confidence. Focus was also given on games and extracurricular activities. Apart from written preparation Nimbus also provided SSB foundation classes on every Sunday, which helped a lot in SSB. During the last days there used to be classes of 8-9 hrs which helped in revision.
