    Either you have to be a graduate or you should be in Final year to apply for Civil service.Merely in 2nd semester makes you eligible for no exam other than those for Intermediate pass. Complete your graduation and keep preparing as it is good that you have fixed your Aim on something big right from the 1st year itself.
    The age limit to apply is 21-30years for General and qualification required is Graduation in any stream.
    Check the website of UPSC to know more details about previous year papers and other details regarding exam scheme of Civil services in archived notifications of Civil Service.

    dear aspirant,

    i am extremely sorry to say that you are not eligible to apply for IAS at that moment. because you are in 2nd semester of BBA and for IAS you must have completed graduation or studying in final year of graduation from recognized college or university.

    for IAS you have to write Civil Services exam that is conducted by UPSC. Civil Services exam is competitive exam. you have to prepare well to crack the exam. so till then keep preparing for the exam.

    Civil Services exam constitutes three parts:
    1. CSAT(Prelims)
    2. Mains
    3. Interview

    your age must be within 21 years to 30 years on 1 August of the year of exam. there is relaxation in upper age limit up to 3 years for OBC and 5 years for SC/ST candidates.



    UPSC also provide the facility to apply for the exam online on following official link of UPSC:

    Hello my Dear Friend ...


    ABSOLUTELY NO ..

    You are NOT ELIGIBLE TO APPEAR FOR THE EXAM



    The minimum qualification is
    "" MINIMUM OF BACHELOR DEGREE "" from a recognized university

    AS YOU SAID ..YOU ARE IN THE "" SECOND SEMESTER RIGHT NOW ""


    And so you are not eligible .. you even did not get the BACHELORS degree

    Mean While my Suggestion is .. to PREPARE YOUR SELF

    Attend for the Mock Tests ..

    Solve as many model papers as you can

    In 2015 .. you can apply for it

    Final year graduation pursuing candidates are also eligible to appear for the exam



    ALL THE GOOD LUCK
