    Hello

    As many times you wish to attempt.There is no restrictions in the number of entry,you can apply for CDSE as as long as you keep satisfying the eligibility criteria.
    The only hurdle that can come is the age limit as,the qualification will remain the same but if any thing can change is age.

    You just need the criteria to be full filled as long you want to apply.

    There is no limitation on the number of times you want to appear for the CDS exam....
    But you need to satisfy the criterias for appearing to this exam..
    And till you are satisfying the criteria for this exam you can apply for this exam...

    Here I am giving you the eligibility criteria satisfying which you will be able for this exam.
    - The first thing is that you must have completed your graduation from a recognized university.....

    As this exam is conducted for the recruitment of candidates under different wings...
    So, here I am giving the names of the wings along with their age criteria..

    Indian Military Academy 19-24 years
    Air Force Academy 19-23 Years
    Naval Academy 19-24 years
    Officers� Training Academy 19-25 years (not before 2 June)


    So, unless and until you are satisfying this age criteria you will remain eligible to apply for this exam.....
