Unacademy, India’s largest learning platform, has announced that more than 200 of its learners have cleared the Air Force Common Admission Test (AFCAT) and Combined Defense Services (CDS) exam.

Over 150 Unacademy learners were able to clear the 153 mark cut off for AFCAT 1 2020. 24 of these were able to score above 200 marks of the total 300. Moreover, 24 out of the top 150 and more students that cleared the AFCAT 1 written exams are Unacademy learners. Similarly, more than 50 Unacademy learners have cleared the CDS exam and have been shortlisted for the Indian Naval Academy (INA), Indian Military Academy (IMA), Air Force Academy (AFA) and Officers Training Academy (OTA).

AFCAT and CDS are considered amongst the most difficult and competitive exams for students to crack in India. Out of the 1.2 to 1.5 lac students that appear for the exams biannually, only 9-11% clear AFCAT while only 5-7% clear CDS.
