Hi, I am pursuing my 2nd year of B.Com Hons. and my age is 18 years. Am I eligible to apply and write the Air Force Common Admission Test (AFCAT)? Or do I need to complete my B.Com first and then apply?

AFCAT is Air Force Common Admission Test. The examination is conducted by Indian Air Force.

The required minimum educational qualification to appear in the examination is that candidate must have passed bachelor degree from a recognised university.
