Chapters
Earth's Structure, Landforms and Geological Time
Where do mountains come from? Why is the outer core liquid? Nearly every question here wants the mechanism rather than a memorised list.
80 PYQs · 7 subtopicsIndian Geography — Economy, Resources and Transport
This is one of the two biggest chapters in NDA Geography — 83 PYQs across 2017–2026 — and it is the heart of the 'Recall' strand: almost every question is a named-fact lookup.
83 PYQs · 6 subtopicsIndian Geography — Physical Features
This is one of the two biggest chapters in NDA Geography — 69 PYQs across 2017–2026 — and it is pure named-fact recall: which peak, which river, which pass, which soil, which state.
69 PYQs · 6 subtopicsClimatology, Atmosphere and Weather
The paper wants two different things here: trace a process, like why the Coriolis force vanishes at the equator, then recall a named fact, like which local wind is the Mistral.
65 PYQs · 6 subtopicsWorld and Human Geography
This is the 'atlas' chapter of NDA Geography — 26 PYQs across 2017–2026 that reward a student who has actually looked at a world map.
26 PYQs · 3 subtopicsEarth in Space, Maps and Coordinates
This chapter is the 'how the Earth sits in space and how we pin a point on it' chapter — 24 PYQs across 2017–2026, spatial and conceptual rather than recall-heavy.
24 PYQs · 5 subtopicsOceanography
Splits cleanly in two: trace a mechanism, like why two tides arrive 12 h 26 min apart, or recall a list, like which named currents run cold.
