Dear student,

There are mainly two ways through which candidates can join the Indian Army after 12th. They are as follows :

1. National Defense Academy
2. Technical Entry Scheme ( TES)

For NDA it is important to note that only male unmarried candidates between the ages of 16 ½ and 19 ½ can apply for this academy. They must also pass their 12th from a recognized university or board.

For TES only unmarried male candidates who have passed their 12th standard in physics, chemistry and mathematics with the aggregate of 70% can apply for this examination. Here, the candidates are assessed on the basis of their 10 + 2 scores after which they will be required to appear for an interview conducted by the Services Selection Board.

If you qualify in all these criteria you can join the army after 12th, and for the grace mark you received in 10th the solution you have done by choosing for the open board is effective. YES now you have zero problems in joining army.
