Whether the Number of Attempts in UPSC exam is counted separately for each exam or in Combination with all?

I have come to know that any general category candidate can give UPSC exams for maximumly four times. Please let me further know that this attempts limit is for each individual exam held by UPSC or it is the max limit for all exams in combination.

There is no restriction on number of attempts in any other Examination conducted by the UPSC. But the restriction is on AGE and other factors.

Thank you ......

There are certain limits for giving the UPSC CSE exam for every cast candidates like

4 for general cast
7 for obc cast
no limit for sc/st cast

This no of attempt is only for CSE exam.

The other exams taken by UPSC have different limits for giving the exam.

Dear friend,

There are many exams conducted by UPSC and all exams have different eligibility criteria.

Mainly the exam which gives more attention on no. of attempts is Civil Services examination and IES and IFS exam.

For all these three exams the no. of attempts is restricted and it is counted separately for these three exams:-

For General It is 21 to 30 yrs.

For OBC its 21 to 33 yrs.

For SC/ST It is 21 to 35 yrs.

For PH- It is 21 to 40 yrs.

For exams like NDA , SCRA and CDS there is no restriction on no. of

attempts but there is restriction on the age limit which automatically

restricts you on giving the exams in that provided age limit.

*** For NDA the age limit is between 16.5 to 19 yrs,
and so you can give this exam till this age.

*** Likewise for SCRA you can appear for SCRA between 17 to 21 yrs of age.

So friend Do not worry much in this regard, Instead work hard and prepare for the examination whichever you want to apply for.
