Re: What is the maximum number of attempts allowed for UPSC examination?

At present the UPSC civil services gives to a general category candidate six attempts and a maximum age of 32 years. While for those in the OBC category is nine till 35 years of age and for the SC/ST category is unlimited attempts till 37 years of age.If you have appeared in IAS Preliminary examination and not qualified then, it will also be considered as a count.
