Hey!
Yes, the foreign graduates pursuing MBBS are eligible to appear for the UPSC CMS Exam. The only condition is that they must have a valid MBBS degree. The MBBS degree of the university must be approved by MCI (Medical Council of India ). And this degree is necessary to apply for UPSC CMS.
Hope this answer helps!
Hello Ganesh,
Yes, you are eligible for the civil service exam even after completion of degree from an open University.
The university giving you the degree must be recognised by state or centre government.

Open degree courses are good as it gives you the plenty of time to focus in your preparation for the exam.
Good luck,
