Dear Friend,

I am sorry to say but you are not eligible for AFCAT this year.

You need to complete your B.Tech. to be eligible for this examination.

You need to get at least 60% marks and also satisfy the age criteria which is different for all three branches in which one can join through AFCAT.

Good Luck.
Thank you.
