    Re: I'm a cancer survivor. Now fit and healthy. Am I eligible for IAS (Indian Administrative Service)?

    Dear aspirant it's really wonderful moment for me that you are a cancer survivor and wants to become an IAS officer in India means i have never seen or listen about anybody like that he/she is a cancer survivor which is the most deadly disease in the human body but dear it good to see that you are fit and active now and if you want to apply for IAS exam then you should have following eligibility criteria :

    A bachelor's degree in any discipline from a recognized university and if you are pursuing final year of your graduation then also you can appear for IAS preliminary exam

    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

    If you have decided IAS as your aim then you must go for any top reputed coaching institute in your near district or city so that you could be prepared well for your exams and qualify the prelims and mains at once but dear IAS exam demands hard study and smart study and you would have to give at least 15 hours everyday for your study then you may become an IAS officer

    You can apply for upcoming IAS exam between these following dates :

    Start date for online application - 02-02-2013

    Last date for online application - 04-03-2013

    Date for UPSC prelims Exam - 19-05-2013

    All the best

    Sorry friend you can get problem during the medical test of civil service exam.

    friend I am not sure about that because you can apply for the Civil Service exam.

    This exam process will run 1.5 years almost.

    So you can improve your condition to clear the medical test.

    if you will be physically unfit you can be declared disqualify in medical exam.
