Sainik School

The All India Sainik Schools Entrance Examination (AISSEE) is the common entrance test for admission to Sainik Schools across India, for boys and girls entering Class 6 or Class 9.

Applicants must be Indian citizens meeting the age criteria for the relevant class, with domicile requirements varying slightly by state quota.

Class 6: age 10–12 years. Class 9: age 13–15 years, as of the cut-off date specified in the year's official notification.

Class 6: Mathematics, Language, Intelligence and General Knowledge, all objective type. Class 9: adds English, General Science and Social Science, with negative marking for wrong answers.

Broadly aligned with the NCERT syllabus for the preceding two classes, with an emphasis on fundamentals rather than advanced topics.

Start with a diagnostic full-length mock to find weak sections, then alternate concept revision with topic-wise practice tests in the months before the exam.
