    Graduates in any discipline from a recognised university . For Air Force and Navy Graduation should be in Engineering or Physics or Maths.

    Age required for CDS examination is as follows:

    Air Force Academy- 19 to 23 years.

    Naval Academy- 19 to 22 years.

    Indian Military Academy- 19 to 24 years.

    Officers Training Academy- 19 to 25 years.

    If you have above then you can apply for CDS examination.

    There will be Objective Type Paper, SSB and Medical Examination that you have to pass in order to get entry into the Defence.

    So start preparing for CDS examination if you really want to become an Defence officer.

    Eligibility for UPSC CDS - Combined Defense Service Examination

    All those candidates who are pursuing final year of their graduation or appearing for final year examination or awaited for final year/semester result may also apply and appear for examination

    There is no relaxation in upper age will be provided to you and other reserved category candidates

    You are in school and want to apply for CDS AFA examination so I would say that either you complete B.Sc in Mathematics with Physics as compulsory subject or complete engineering degree then appear for examination

    Examination Pattern of CDS Exam

    General Knowledge - 100 marks
    English Language - 100 marks
    Elementary Mathematics - 100 marks

    These papers will be conducted for those candidates who prefers - IMA or INA or AFA and if anyone prefers OTA then he/she need to appear only for first two papers of mentioned above

    All the best
