    Eligibility for UPSC SCRA Examination

    Candidate should have passed in class 12th with mathematics and physics as a compulsory subject and any one of the biology/chemistry/computer science from a recognized board

    Age should not be less than 17 years and more than 21 years and relaxation in upper age as per government guidelines which is 5 years for SC/ST and 3 years for OBC category candidates

    Dear if you have completed your class 12th with maths and physics then there is no issue but your age should not be more than 21 years and you can apply for this examination

    This year UPSC SCRA exam has been conducted but the next notification for SCRA exam will be announced in the next year so that you need to start your study for this examination and you should prepare for this exam with complete concentration

    You must join any good coaching institute to prepare for this examination and if you choose any reputed institute for your preparation and give more than 8 hours everyday for the preparation then you may easily get selected but dear you have to focus on each and every single topic of the syllabus then only you will be eligible to get selected for the post of SCRA under the central government and when you have made this thing as your target then you need to study in depth about this examination then you may get more knowledge and qualify the written examination easily

    If you qualify the written examination then you will have to qualify the interview process also then you will be finally selected for the job and start your work

    All the best

    Re: Can I apply for SCRA (Special Class Railway Apprentice) exam with B.Tech (Mechanical) as qualification?

    Hello

    The Eligibility criteria for the SCRA is
    1)The candidates must have done their 10+2 or any other equivalent exam to 10+2 with mathematics and any one subject between physics and chemistry with second division.

    2)Age limit-17 to 21 years.

    Now as you have done B.TECH then you must have mathematics and any one subject between physics and chemistry,but your age must be issue.
    But the biggest fact is that SCRA stands for the Special Class Railway Apprentice,if you qualify the entrance then there is interview and if you get selected then you will be send to the Indian Institute Of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering,Jamalpur,where you will study the 4 year course of Mechanical engineering,after which will be appointed as a group 'A' officer in the railways.

    Now you have already completed your mechanical engineering,then there is no sense in again going for the same study,also the success chances in the SCRA is very less.The number of vacancies is approximately 10-12 and the number of applicants is more than lakh.
