Hai buddy..
A person can become an officer in the Indian Air Force at one of four levels:

1. 10+2: (Direct entry) This level is for men only. All males who have completed their 12th standard may join the National Defence Academy and, once their training there is completed, enter the Air Force. Entry is through an exam conducted by the UPSC.

2. Graduate: Graduates can join any of the IAF's branches. Candidates who are shortlisted after selection undergo training at one of the IAF training institutes, after which they are commissioned and posted.

3. Engineer: An engineering student can join the technical branch of the IAF during his final or pre-final year through the University Entry Scheme.

4. Post-Graduate: A PG, depending on his degree, can join the IAF's Technical or Ground Duty branches. Favoured degrees include Aeronautical Engineering, Electronics etc.
All the best...
