Dear Friend,
The candidates willing to appear for the IAS exam have to get a bachelor degree certificate from any recognized university in any stream or discipline.
The 12th level exam is not the educational qualifying limit for appearing for the IAS exam.
The candidates need to have a graduation degree in any of the following pattern 10+2 +3 or 10+2+4.
Even if you have done diploma then also you will be eligible after you get a graduation degree from any stream of your own interest.

This is a silly question well if you have not did class 12th then how can you do the raduation as far as the eligibility is concerned graduation in any discipline is the main requirement to apply for the civil services examination i.e IAS and IPS.
So class 12th is nothing to do with it only the documents are checked by the verification department and you need to submit all the documents related to the academics so that is just for the enquiry.
But if you want to apply for the civil services examination then you need too fulfil the eligibility criteria for the same.
IAS and IPS examination pattern are same because both are conducted through the civil services examination.
Eligibility criteria you can see-
Eligibility criteria for the Civil services examination-

Dear friend,
having passed only class 12th does not make you eligible for appearing in Civil Services Examination for joining IAS or IPS services.
The minimum education eligibility criteria for appearing in Civil Services Examination is that candidate must have passed graduation in any stream from any UGC recognized university.
ood ran
So you are not eligible to appear for Civil Services examination on basis of educational qualifications unless you complete your graduation.
There is no difference between question paper for IAS and IPS.
They both are services which you will have to select when you have successfully cleared the prestigious Civil Services Examination with a very good rank.So question paper is same for IAS and IPS.
Thank you and all the best
