    Hi..friend

    SCRA exam is one of the most secure and good job in government sector

    To give scra exam your age must be below 19 years old

    Then only you can attempt for SCRA exam otherwise not possible

    You mentioned your age is 20 years so that

    You can not apply for this scra exam

    But you need to complete your graduation then you may go for

    any exam that will come under UPSC

    But now you are absolutely not eligible to write scra and nda exams

    After getting your degree crack the upsc exam

    any way good luck...

    Hi dear

    First of all you should know that age for age eligibility criteria of any Exam is calculated with respect to a ''fixed reference date'' .

    That fixed reference date is announced in Official Notification or Brochure of the Exam.

    For Example:
    The age eligibility for SCRA Exam 2011 was calculated as '''17 - 21 years on 01/08/2011'''.

    So ''your Eligibility for SCRA-2013 depends upon the chosen reference date by UPSC'' which will be announced in Official notification for SCRA-2013 by UPSC on http://www.upsc.gov.in .

    dear friend,

    Age Limit for SCRA Examination is Minimum 17 years and maximum age should be less than 21 years as on August 1 of the year of examination.
    as on August 1 of the year of examination you are 20 years old. so you can apply for UPSC SCRA exam in 2013 and that would be your last chance to apply for SCRA exam.


    Good Luck.......
