Hello

NO IT IS NOT NECESSARY TO PASS EACH SUBJECT IN CDSE TO PASS CDSE.

CDSE has a written exam of three papers 1)Elementary Mathematics 2)English 3)General knowledge.
It is a entrance,multiple choice question,there is no such concept of pass in a competitive exam.

You never pass or fail in a competitive exam,it is only the rank that matters the most in this case.
you will be giving exam of three papers,now it totally depends how much have you scored in all three papers and depending on that your rank will be decided.
Even if you have scored 0 in all three papers,then also there is a possibility that you rank,but then it will require that others must have performed extremely bad.

Even if your score is in negative you can rank,there is no pass or fail in a competitive exam it is only the rank and that depends how well you have performed and how others have performed.
