    Eligibility Criteria for UPSC Civil Service Examination 2013

    A bachelor's degree in any discipline from a recognized university and final year pursuing candidates are also eligible to apply for preliminary examination

    Age should not be less than 21 years and more than 30 years and relaxation in upper age as per government guidelines which is 5 years for SC/ST and 3 years for OBC category candidates

    Dear this is the huge speciality of UPSC board that the board never ask for percentage marks in any class for any examination means if you are only passed in that examination which is required then you can apply for UPSC examinations and you can apply for UPSC civil service examination

    Dear when you have made it sure that you are eligible to apply for the UPSC preliminary examination then i would like to tell you that UPSC is going to conduct the preliminary examination at - 19th of May 2013 so that there are only 3 months left to prepare for this examination and if you are serious then there is nothing in the preparation, you should join any good coaching institute and follow the crash course of that coaching institute and the duration of the crash course would be about 3 months and i expect that coaching institutes provides enough and complete study in this batch also so that everything depends on you that if you would provide at least 15 hours everyday for the study of prelims then you can easily get qualified

    All the best

    Every year UPSC conducts the Civil Service Exam ( CSE ) for the post of IAS , IPS and IFS .

    Generally the criteria for the UPSC CSE exam is below :

    -> one must be graduated in any stream from any recognized university

    -> A final year student can also eligible for applying the exam , but before the main exam one have to complete the graduation .

    -> age limit is
    21-30 for general cast ,
    3 years relaxation for obc ,
    5 years relaxation for sc/st/ex-serviceman ,
    10 years relaxation for physically handicapped .

    Any Indian citizen who fulfill the above criteria are eligible for the exam .

    As you completed graduation so that you can give the exam because you are eligible .

    But there are certain limits for giving the exams like
    For general cast candidates maximum 4 attempts are allowed
    For obc cast candidates maximum 7 attempts are allowed
    For sc/st no limit .

    So after preparing well then and then give the exam otherwise it is just waste of your attempt .

    Exam structure is very simple , it has three stages .

    1) Preliminary exam :

    It consists two objective type papers .

    2) Main exam :

    It consists 9 descriptive type papers .

    3) Interview :

    So start the preparation for the exam and give it after preparing well .

    Thank you...
