Hello.....you are becoming too much optimistic too early young man.You neither have the minimum age nor the minimum qualifications to write the exam.To write the exam you should be atleast a graduate from any subjet.For more eligibility details visit www.upsc.gov.in.

Hello friend,
To be eligible for the Civil Service Exam, you must hold a bachelors degree from a recognized university. The minimum eligible age for the exam is 21 years and the maximum age limit is 30 years. Candidates belonging to SC/ST category are eligible upto 35 years and OBC upto 33 years.
So, you must complete your education with dedication and work hard to be eligible for the exam. There is no standard set for the percentage of marks to be eligible for the exam but candidates with good academic record and highest marks in Civil Service Exam are only considered for IAS. So, if you want to be an IAS officer, being good won't b enough, you will have to be the best.

No friend you are not eligible to appear for IAS exam.

You need to complete your degree/graduation & should have age between 21 to 30 years.

So there is too much time for you to prepare.

For the time being you can complete your 10+2 exam & after that complete your graduation.

You can also visit the official website of UPSC as you can gain much knowledge related to IAS exam there.

I am happy that you are very career oriented at this age and i appreciate that, but then what you are thinking to do is too far from your reach.

To become an IAS you have to give the CSAT exam conducted by the UPSC.

The minimum eligiblity for CSAR is:

Age:
Candidate must be minimum 21 years of age as on 1st August of the year of exam.

Educational Qualification:

Candidate must have passed graduation from a recognized university. Even final year students can apply.

Now as you are just 16, and not even completed your 12th standard, so you are not eligible right now.

However, you can definitely apply for the exam once you are 21 and have completed graduation.

So dont be impatient and study hard now, dont worry about IAS right now as you have a long time to go.

Good Luck!

I appreciate your desire to become an IAS officer but I am very sorry to tell you that you are not eligible for IAS EXAMINATION because for this examination one must be graduate and falls in the age group of 21 years to 30 years. So you have to wait till 5 to 6 years more for becoming an IAS OFFICER. So concentrate on your study with strong determination and will power and get a good education which will build your future bright and shining. Your enthusiasm, courage and mentality will prove a boon for you ahead in your life.
With best wishes

Smile Re: IAS exam at age 16 and currently pursuing 11th standard?

Dont even think about that, because :

1. IAS is not a exam , but actually it is one of the cadre which is alloted to you if you successfully clear civil service exam conducted by UPSC.
2. Minimum age eligibility for this exam is 21 years.

So, first you have to clear the graduation in any field, then you you can appy for CSE.

Few important details regarding CSE:
It consist of three stages:
a. CSAT : Civil service aptitute test which is also screening test
b. Mains : After clearing csat
c. Interview: After clearing mains, must to clear

So you have to wait till you attains age of 21 yrs and clears you graduation with atleast 50%.
What you can do as preliminary preparation as:

Read Newspaper daily
Subscribe to some good magazine
Improve you communication skills

Let me clearly outline ias eligibility to you

you must be above 21 yrs of age to be eligible to apply for ias exam.. more correctly known as UPSC civil services exam through which ias are selected.

in addition at the time of applying you need to be in final year of graduation degree... or you should have completed you graduation (or higher)
degree and shoul not be above

30 yrs for general ctegory( 4 attempts maximum)
33 yrs for obc(7 attempts maximum)
35 yrs for sc/st(NA)
there is 10 yrs relaxation for disable people (above 30 yrs)

so now you can not appear for the coming 5 years untill you attain 21 yrs and fufill the educational requirement.
