• Gain a good understanding of the topics in the NDA syllabus.
• Pick the best books for NDA preparation to study from. A few good books for maths include:

• Practice questions from previous years' NDA question papers to get a better understanding of the kind of questions that will appear in the paper.

While it is a bit challenging, with the right preparation, a non math student can clear the NDA exam.
