  • To appear for the UPSC Civil Services Exam, candidates must be Indian citizens aged 21-32 (with certain age relaxations for specific categories). They must hold at least a bachelor's degree. The exam consists of two compulsory papers, the Civil Services Preliminary Examination (objective-type) and the Civil Services Main Examination (written and interview). The Main Examination includes nine papers, out of which two are qualifying (Indian language and English) and the remaining seven are merit-based covering a range of subjects such as history, geography, polity, and more. Successful candidates then face a personality test (interview).
