In the last 2 months of the PMA training, the cadets undergo full preparation for the passing out day parade. All the moves done on the passing out day parade like PMA oath taking by the cadets, receiving of sword of honour from the Chief guest etc are fully practiced before the passing out day.

Well, this is the part of PMA traditions and it is enjoyed by both seniors and the juniors.
