sorry you cannot eligible for 2013 but possible for 2012

as per upsc norms
the person under general category can appear for upsc exams from 21 to 30 years old. IE... the candidate should not complete 30 years as on august 1st of that year you are going to appear for the preliminary exam. As per your date of birth you born in june month 1983,so as on 2013 august 1st you completed 30 years, which will not satisfy the needs of upsc norms.in case of 2012 you could be 29 years old as on june and could not completed 30 years.

so you have only one chance to write the exam in general category ie in the year of 2012 you can appear for the 1st stage of exam.

good luck

Re: UPSC Civil Services Exams Eligibility with Gap Years in Graduation

Hi dear,

Your academics are good enough and you are certainly eligible for the next UPSC examination.
But you have got relatively less time.
The age limit for appearing civil services examination is as follow
GEN-30 years,
OBC-(30+3) years
SC/ST-(30+5) years
So if you are in GEN category then you have only two attempts remaining.
You would be having more attempts if you are from other than GEN category.
However, I would say that if you prepare well then it would be possible to qualify. As you are married so , i can understand that it might be difficult for you. But I think if you are sincere enough for UPSC then your family should sacrifice little bit for you. Without family support it's very difficult.

You need to give your most of time in nothing but studies. Your graduation subjects are good for CS examination. You can opt the same for mains exam.
The UPSC notification will be published after NOV. So you should hurry now.

The age limit to appear for the exam is 21-30 years for general. 21-33 for OBC students.
21-35 for SC,ST candidates.. so you are still eligible for the exam.. The educational gap of 6 years doesn't matter..
