    Hello

    Being in the pre final year you are not applicable for the CDS exams.

    The candidates who have completed their graduation are applicable for the exam or them who are studying in the final year can apply ,so that they can give the exam in that year only and so that they do not have to wait for the next year to give the exams.

    So you are not applicable now.
