    Dear Aspirant,

    -->> If you are wishing for ICS exam then you are not eligible.

    -->> For civil services exam the minimum qualification required is degree.

    -->> But a 12th class student can apply for NDA exam.

    -->> Only science stream students having desired subjects are eligible to apply for NDA exam.

    -->> If you are science student then you can also apply for UPSC SCRA Exam.

    -->> Age limit for NDA exam is 16.5-19 years.

    Hi Aspirant,

    Friend you didn�t mention the exam name for which you want to apply and asking about the age.

    UPSC conducts various competitive exams for different kind of posts.

    After Intermediate you can apply only for NDA exam and SCRA exam.

    NDA stands for National Defense Academy and is conducted for defense Service.

    SCRA stands for Special Class Railway Apprentice and is conducted for Railway department.


    The age limit for NDA exam is 16.5 to 19 years.

    While the age limit for SCRA exam is 17 to 21 years.

    If you want to apply for Civil service exam then your age should be between 21 to 30 years.

    And you should be graduate for civil exam.


    I am attaching below the detailed information about UPSC exam for various posts.
