If you want to join Indian Air Force than the minimum qualification required is 12th with Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics as the main subjects with aggregate of 55% marks and relaxation of 5% is given to reserved categories. You have to appear in the NDA examination. Age limit should be in between 16.5 to 19 years and no relaxation in upper age limit is given to reserved categories.
