    Re: How can I join IMA (Indian Military) through UPSC exams?

    Dear there are two ways to join Indian Military Academy through UPSC exams that are :

    After class 12th in any discipline from a reputed university or institute or board but age should not be less than 16 years and more than 18.5 years (average) and only unmarried male candidates are allowed to apply for this examination

    You may also join IMA after completing graduation in any discipline from a reputed institute and final year pursuing candidates are also eligible to apply for CDS IMA examination

    Age should not be less than 19 years and more than 24 years to appear for this exam

    There is no relaxation in upper age provided to any category candidates and remember that you are only allowed till 24 years of age

    There will separate process of selection through both exams and better way to join CDS IMA is that you complete your bachelor's degree and take coaching classes then have good practice for examination and all other tests and get enter in this stream because graduation will be completed then you can give more time for your job and really achieve more targets in job and if you join through NDA examination then you will get the job but study will be stopped that will be completed in distance more so you should think about it and keep visiting at www.upsc.gov.in for more details about such examinations

    All the best
