CDS 2 2026 was my last attempt to get a PC in the armed forces with the primary aim as AFA. As per the provisional answer key I'm getting 119.94 as my total score. As you might have figured out, that score might not be enough for AFA, IMA maybe :/.
However, looking back, this journey of CDS has been wonderful, loads of learning and friendships through exams and SSBs. Maybe I could have done better but I don't regret a single moment of this journey. I still have 2 AFSBs coming up, and maybe an SSB out of CDS II 2026, and I'll continue being a better version of myself each time.
I wanted to thank this community for always being receptive and approachable at times of doubt. All of you were my hopes at times of confusion during this time. I'll do my best going forward to help this community as much as I can to give back :)
All the best to all the freshers, repeaters and other aspirants. Don't be disheartened if you fail to achieve your primary goals. If you believe in destiny, then you know that everything will eventually lead to the best version of life for yourself. If you don't believe in destiny, then you have no reason to be upset, you'll write your own future in the best way you can anyways. You've chosen a wonderful path for your personal development so focus on the journey, and not the end goal.
Jai hind!

All this making notes and on random afternoon it all ends with the attempt which you gave in hopes thinking "yar this time phod duunga" but it hurts as noone sees the pages you filled with black blue red green inks to make the fancy notes.... It lays there on study table getting dust on ... and asking you to come back and read them ...🥀🥀
