RMS full form is Rashtriya Military School. RMS are 5 residential schools run by the Ministry of Defence at Chail, Ajmer, Dholpur, Bengaluru and Belgaum. Students join in Class 6 or Class 9 through the RMS CET (Common Entrance Test).
Rashtriya Military Schools have been shaping officers since 1925. Run directly by the Ministry of Defence, these five English-medium residential schools — at Chail, Ajmer, Dholpur, Bengaluru, and Belgaum — are among the most respected institutions in India and founding members of the IPSC. See how they compare among the top 10 boarding schools in India.
At Young Star Defence Academy, we have seen 4,200+ students walk into RMS schools. Families from Punjab, Haryana, Delhi, Rajasthan, UP, Himachal Pradesh and across India trust our RMS coaching — some join us at the Amritsar campus, others attend live online from home.
We cover everything — Maths, English, GK, Intelligence and the interview round — for both Class 6 and Class 9 CET. Nothing is left to chance. 📍 Visit our Amritsar campus
Young Star was founded by Prashant Singh — a defence education expert with years of experience training students for RMS, Sainik School, RIMC and NDA. His firsthand understanding of what these schools demand is built into every aspect of how we teach.
All five RMS schools report directly to the Ministry of Defence. Fully residential, CBSE-affiliated from Class VI to XII. Any student in India — regardless of state — can apply to any of the five schools.
There is one exam — the CET — conducted centrally for all five schools. Class 6 and Class 9 both have separate papers. Every chapter we teach at Young Star maps directly to what appears in that exam.
RMS schools admit both boys and girls. At our Amritsar campus, boy and girl students get the same coaching, the same mock tests and the same access to faculty — with organic meals and daily PT included.
An RMS education does something most schools cannot — it builds the discipline, fitness and academic depth that the Armed Forces demand. Many RMS alumni go on to clear NDA and become commissioned officers. For the highest-achieving students, RIMC Dehradun is the elite next step before RMS.
Can’t move to Amritsar? Our RMS online coaching gives students anywhere in India the same faculty, syllabus and mock tests as our residential batch — live from home.
Maths, English, GK and Intelligence for the Class 6 CET, with weekly online tests and interview practice.
Maths, English, Science, Social Science and Intelligence for the Class 9 CET, plus interview and personality preparation.
3, 6 and 12-month programmes from ₹15,000. Call +91 81013 13136 for the current batch and fee.
All five schools use the same CET — which means one round of RMS coaching covers every option. Young Star prepares students for all five. Choose the school you want. We take care of the preparation.
Founded 1922, set in the Shimla Hills — India's oldest military school and closest to Punjab. A premier residential defence school producing generations of Armed Forces officers. RMS Chail is the most preferred choice for students from Punjab, Haryana, Himachal Pradesh and North India.

Class 9: 13–16 years as on 31 March (born 1 April 2011 – 31 March 2014). Wards of personnel killed in action get 6 months' upper age relaxation. Boys and girls are both eligible. Young Star's RMS coaching is open to students from all states.
Applications are submitted online on the NTA portal (exams.nta.nic.in/rmscet) — last date 20 October 2026, 5 PM (late fee window 21–25 October). Young Star provides complete form-filling assistance and document guidance for all Punjab applicants — free of charge.
Punjab students who clear the CET are shortlisted for Interview / Viva Voce and medical examination. Final selection is based on written + interview combined merit. YSDA prepares Punjab students for both rounds.
Young Star RMS coaching students get subject-wise study material for every CET subject — Maths, Intelligence, GK and English for Class 6; English, Hindi, Social Science, Maths and Science for Class 9. For free subject-wise PDFs and the full recommended reading list, see our RMS Books & Study Material page.
Maths is where most students lose marks — and where we focus hardest. Arithmetic, geometry, algebra, number systems for Class 6; full Class 9 board-level Maths for the senior paper. Chapter-wise tests after every topic.
The English paper tests more than grammar — it tests reading speed and comprehension under pressure. We build both. Students leave with stronger vocabulary, sharper accuracy and the confidence to attempt every question.
GK is unpredictable unless you have a system. We teach History, Geography, Civics, Science and Current Affairs with a structured approach — and test it weekly so nothing slips through by exam day.
Speed matters as much as accuracy in the Intelligence section. We drill puzzles, coding-decoding, series, analogies and spatial reasoning until students can solve them quickly — not just correctly.
The interview round eliminates students who were not prepared for it. We run mock sessions that mirror the actual viva — same format, same pressure, same type of questions. Students walk in knowing what to expect.
Regular full-length RMS mock tests, chapter-wise practice papers, and performance analysis — so Punjab students understand their progress, improve weak areas, and arrive exam-ready.
Submit the RMS CET-2026 application form on exams.nta.nic.in/rmscet by 20 October 2026 (5 PM). Late fee window: 21–25 October. Young Star's RMS coaching team walks every student through the form — fields, documents, fee payment — so nothing gets rejected on a technicality.
Appear in the RMS CET on 13 December 2026 — one 200-mark paper for Class 6, or two 100-mark papers (200 total) for Class 9. YSDA's RMS coaching is fully aligned with this pattern and covers every subject.
Students who clear the written paper are called for the viva. Our RMS coaching includes dedicated interview preparation — mock sessions, communication training and current affairs — so shortlisted students are never caught off guard.
Medical fitness is the final gate. Our RMS coaching includes daily PT and physical conditioning so students arrive at the medical round in the shape that is expected of them — not scrambling at the last minute.
Most institutes stop at the written exam. We do not. Written paper, interview, physical fitness — we prepare students for every stage so there are no surprises on selection day.
Whether a student sits in our Amritsar classroom or joins from a small town in Rajasthan or UP, they get identical classes, identical material and identical attention. We built the online programme to be the same thing — not a lesser version.
A student who does not fully understand a concept in their first language will always struggle. We teach in Hindi, English and Punjabi — whichever helps the idea land clearly and stay.
Our hostel is designed to feel like the school they are preparing for — structured days, daily PT, organic meals, supervised study time and complete security. By the time they sit the CET, the lifestyle is already familiar.
Our study material is updated every year — not photocopied from five years ago. Chapter notes, past papers, mock exams and quizzes are all built around what actually appears in the current CET.
The Sainik School and RMS syllabi overlap significantly. Instead of paying for two separate courses, our combined programme covers both — one preparation, two chances at getting into a defence school. We also offer dedicated RIMC coaching for students targeting Dehradun.
If your child is drawn to a life of service and leadership, RMS is the right starting point. We have seen thousands of such students come through — quiet, determined kids who needed structure and the right guidance to get there.
Some students do well in school but struggle without a clear target. The CET gives them exactly that — a defined exam, a defined date, and a path to work towards. Our structured programme turns that focus into results.
Every student gets a name here — not a roll number. We keep batches small enough that faculty actually know how each student is doing and can step in before a small gap becomes a big problem.
SC, ST and OBC students receive government-mandated age relaxation for the CET. Beyond that, we offer merit-based scholarships so that financial constraints do not decide who gets a fair shot at an RMS or RIMC seat.
Selections across all 5 RMS schools — Chail, Ajmer, Dholpur, Bengaluru and Belgaum. Each one a family that trusted us with their child.
Selections across all 133 Sainik Schools through AISSEE — Class 6 and Class 9 combined.
RIMC Dehradun offers only 25 seats nationally per term. We have filled 1,325+ of them over the years. Learn about RIMC coaching →
Officers now serving in the Indian Army, Navy and Air Force — who started their journey at Young Star.
Young Star Defence Academy was founded by Prashant Singh — one of India's most experienced defence entrance coaching experts. With years of hands-on experience preparing students for RMS, Sainik School, RIMC and NDA, Prashant Singh built Young Star on a single principle: every deserving student deserves a real shot at a defence school seat. Under his leadership, Young Star has produced 4,200+ RMS and 25,000+ Sainik School selections — a track record no other institute in India matches.
"The mock tests at YSDA were harder than the actual exam. By the time I sat the CET, I already knew how to handle the pressure. Got selected in RMS Chail in my first attempt."
"I joined the online batch from Ludhiana. The faculty gave individual attention even in online sessions. My daughter got selected and I did not have to relocate the family."
"The interview preparation was what made the difference. Most institutes stop at the written paper. YSDA ran multiple mock viva sessions — I walked into the real interview completely prepared."
Rashtriya Military School (RMS) coaching is not just for boys. Military school admissions in India are open to both boys and girls — and Young Star is one of the very few institutes that has built a proper programme for girl students — same faculty, same papers, same mock tests, and a safe hostel at our Amritsar campus with organic meals and 24×7 security. Young Star Defence Academy provides dedicated RMS preparation for girl students from all Punjab districts — with equal access to coaching, study materials, mock tests, and interview preparation. The CET exam and admission process are the same for all candidates. A safe residential hostel with organic food is available for girls at our Amritsar campus. We also offer dedicated Sainik School coaching for girls for families considering both defence school options.

Young Star offers both online coaching (pan-India) and residential coaching at Amritsar.
The RMS interview (Viva Voce) tests personality, communication, general awareness, and confidence. Preparation should cover: current affairs and national events, basic knowledge about the Indian Armed Forces and the 5 RMS schools, confident English speaking, and answers to common questions about yourself and your goals. Our RMS coaching includes a dedicated interview preparation programme — mock sessions, personality grooming, communication training and current affairs updates, both online and at our Amritsar campus.

There are 5 Rashtriya Military Schools (RMS) admitting through RMS CET (written exam by NTA), and 133 Sainik Schools admitting through AISSEE conducted by NTA. RMS has a longer history since 1925 and a stronger direct pathway to NDA and commissioned officer ranks. Both schools are excellent defence-oriented residential schools — and since the CET and AISSEE syllabi overlap significantly, Young Star recommends applying for both — and our Combined Sainik + RMS coaching covers both exams in one go, saving time and maximising your child's chances of getting into a defence school. See our full overview of Military Schools in India for a side-by-side comparison.
Rashtriya Military School itself charges government-set fees covering tuition, hostel and mess — these are far lower than private boarding schools since RMS is run by the Ministry of Defence. Young Star's RMS coaching fees vary by mode (online vs residential at Amritsar) and duration, with merit-based scholarships available for eligible students. See our Military School Fees page for a full breakdown, or call +91 81013 13136 for a personalised quote.
The right books matter — RMS CET questions follow a specific pattern that generic school textbooks don't fully cover. Young Star's study material is updated every year and built around the current CET syllabus for Maths, English, GK and Intelligence. See our Recommended RMS Books page for our full reading list for Class 6 and Class 9, or download subject-wise PDFs directly on this page — free for Maths, English, GK and Reasoning.
