no, firstly you have to complete your degree,then you are eligible to apply in the exam.these exams are on the basis of degree,while if you are in eight semester then you are eligible.you may have quiry that other people appear in his third year of degree while engineering candidates not,because other people completing his degree in arts and science and you are completing in engineering.

friend sorry but u can't appear for ies,ias or psu exams during your third yr of engg. because the min. eligibility is that a student should be in his final yr. of engg. to appear for such exams. though u can definately give gate exam during your 3rd yr of engg.

Well no you can not sit for any exams out of these three as the basic eligibility criteria for all three is you must have completed your engineering degree but since you are in third year i would advice you to concentrate on your exams and once you will clear you 4 th year you will be able to sit for all these three exams .

IAS: For IAS you have to appear for civil service exam which is conducted by UPSC once a year .Eligibility for the IAS is :

You should have done your graduation .
You should be between 21 to 30 years for SC/ST it is 21 to 35 years and for OBC its a 21 to 33 years .

IES:IES i.e Indian Engineering Services is a combined competitive examination is conducted by the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) for recruitment to the Indian Engineering Services (IES).Eligibility for the exam is :

You should have done your engineering in :

Electronics and communication .
Civil engineering .
Electrical Engineering
Mechanical Engineering

You should be between 21 to 27 years .

Eligibility criteria is for all PSU companies :

You should have completed your graduation
You should have got marks around 605 in your graduation and in class 10th and 12th .

For the exams mentioned a candidate without a graduation degree cannot apply. Candidates who will have the required qualification at the time of interview are also allowed to apply for these posts. The same will be mentioned in the notification. So certainly you can’t appear for these exams now. But on the other hand this gives you enough time to prepare for these tests.

The world is full of opportunities. Your chosen option of PSU prepares you for a job in any PSU while GATE prepares you to do Post Graduation.

Well, if you want to pursue PG, stick to the second option.

If you want to take up a job, there are several competitve exams like UPSC, etc. You may also put your bio-data in any job-search website.

You may also register your name with Board of Apprentice Training for getting one year's paid apprenticeship training from any good company.

All the best.
