Yes offcourse you can go for IAS exam.
Minimum education criteria = Graduate

Maximum age criteria = 28yrs (for General category and I think it is 32 years for SC/ ST categories)

CSAT 2011 exams will be conducted on 12th June. and last date of applying for the same is 21at March...


please refer www.upsc.gov.in for further detail and to apply..

How to apply:-You have to apply for UPSC (Union Public Services Commission) exam.

This time UPSC pattern is changed and it is called as CSAT which is coming into effect from Civil Services Examination, 2011.and so there is no option subjects...

Dear friend,

To be eligible for the CSAT examination conducted by

the UPSC you should fulfill the following criteria:

1) You must have a graduation degree from a recognized
university.

2) You should have age between 21-30 years.

Since you are not satisfying the age limit criteria, you are not

eligible for the examination.

Thank you...

The CSAT or the Civil Service Aptitude Test is conducted by the UPSC each year.
The CSAT is held for the selection of candidates as an IPS or an IAS.

The minimum Age Eligibility can be noted as follows:

Candidate must have acheived minimum 21 years of age on 1st august of the year of exam.

Since, you are only 20, you are not eligible. However, if your D.O.B is on or before 1st August, then you turn 21 by 1st August and become eligible.

Also note that the upper age limit is 30 years(33 years for OBC and 35 Years for SC/ST).

Also, dont appear for the exam for a first hand experience purpose, try only if you are genuinely interested and well prepared because, there is very tough competition for IAS and OPS and only 4 attempts are available(7 for OBC and no limit for SC/ST).
People have been trying very hard for years and not able to get through. So dont waste any opportunity just like this.
