Hi Krishna, NDA preparation and JEE preparation are very different in orientation. The General Studies and English paper in NDA makes all the difference. The General Studies in NDA has a vast syllabus and can not be prepared in one or two months.
JEE preparation need a concentrated effort because the Competition is fierce. So it would be very difficult for anyone to prepare for both. NDA exam will be followed by the SSB interview which involves various psychometric tests where the candidates are tested for their Leader like qualities.
You need to analyse and measure your affinity towards both the exams and proceed accordingly.

In the CDS exam, a good score varies as per the academy. Generally as per the experts, 120 to 150+ in the written exam for IMA/INA/AFA and 90 to 110+ for OTA are considered to be the good score along with the strong SSB performance. Also, cutoff changes every year and candidates required a minimum of 20% in each paper.
