Dear Friend,

The Civil Services Exam is commonly known as the IAS Entrance Exam as it provides the opportunity to the candidates to join the Indian Administrative Services.

The IAS Exam is conducted by the Union Public Service Commission [UPSC] so all the requisites for the IAS Exam are set by the UPSC.

The Requisites for IAS Entrance Exam are :

* The candidate must hold a Bachelor`s Degree in any stream from any recognized college/university.

* If you are even in final year of graduation , you can also appear for the IAS Entrance Exam.

* The Age Limit for the IAS Entrance Exam varies with the Category of candidates.

* The Minimum Age Limit For the IAS Exam is 21 years.

* The Maximum Age Limit :

a) For General Category Candidates is 30 years.

b) For OBC Category Candidates is 33 years.

c) For SC/ST Category Candidates is 35 years.

So , from the above mentioned its quite clear that the maximum age limit for General Candidates for the IAS Entrance Exam is 30 years not 29.

Moving towards the Exam , i would like to inform you that the exam is conducted in the following manner :


1) Civil Services Aptitude Test

2) MAINS Examination

3) Personal Interview Test

And its mandatory for the candidates to take on all these three examinations and crack these three examinations if dreaming of cracking the IAS Exam.

This is the information i have to the best of my knowledge regarding your query. Hope the information will help you to the extent you want.

Hi


IAS - Indian Administrative Services.

So one has to work really hard to clear this exam.


Now the Basic Eligibility Criteria's to sit for the IAS entrance exam are :-


1. You should be an Indian National

2. You should be a minimum graduate in any stream from any background. So stream is no criteria.

3. Your age should be within 21-30 years if you are from GEN, 21-33 years for OBC and 21-35 years for the SC/ST.

4. GEN candidates are given 4 attempts, OBC's 7 and the SC/ST's are given Unlimited number of attempts.

5. You should be physically and mentally a fit person.



So hope this satisfies your query, You have to be within the specified age limit if you want to apply for the IAS exam.


Also know that final year graduation students may also apply for the exam, but the Pre Final year students cannot.


All the best
