if I complete my college by dummy or non regular and achieve degree. Than there can any wrong impression in ssb or should I screen out? ( If I passed in cds exam )

Samprikta Mondal 23rd Oct, 2024

No, completing your college through dummy or non-regular means will not necessarily result in a negative impression during your SSB interview or screening process.

The SSB (Service Selection Board) assesses candidates based on various qualities such as leadership, teamwork, problem-solving, and personality. While the mode of completing your college education may be considered, it is not the sole determining factor.

Here are some important points to keep in mind:

  • Focus on the Fundamentals: Ensure you have a strong understanding of the core subjects related to your degree. The SSB assesses your knowledge and problem-solving skills, not just the mode of study.
  • Extracurricular Activities: Highlight any extracurricular activities, internships, or projects you've undertaken during your college years. These can demonstrate your leadership, teamwork, and initiative.
  • Confidence and Communication: Project confidence and effective communication skills during the SSB process. Your ability to express yourself clearly and confidently is crucial.
  • Honesty and Integrity: Be honest about your educational background and any relevant experiences. The SSB values integrity and transparency.

While completing your college through dummy or non-regular means may raise questions, it is not an automatic disqualification. If you can demonstrate your knowledge, skills, and potential, you can still successfully clear the SSB and be considered for selection.

It's important to focus on developing the qualities and skills that are valued by the SSB. By showcasing your abilities and potential, you can overcome any initial concerns related to your mode of education.

my dob is 29 November 2003 my graduation completed in 2027 i applied for cds ima

kumardurgesh1802 24th Aug, 2024

Hello there,

Yes, you can apply for the Combined Defence Services (CDS) exam for the Indian Military Academy (IMA) after completing your graduation in 2027, based on your date of birth, 29th November 2003. Here’s how your eligibility works out:

Eligibility Criteria for CDS IMA:

  1. Age Limit: For IMA, the candidate should be between 19 and 24 years old at the time of course commencement. Since you were born on 29th November 2003, you will be within the eligible age range for several years after your graduation.

  2. Educational Qualification: A degree from a recognized university or equivalent is required. Since you will complete your graduation in 2027, you will meet this qualification.

  3. Application Timing: The CDS exam is conducted twice a year. Depending on the exam you apply for, your eligibility will be determined by your age at the time of the course commencement, typically a few months after the exam.

    Example Timeline:

If you apply for the CDS exam in 2027, the courses would typically start in 2028, and you would be 24 or under, fitting within the age limit.

Conclusion:

You are eligible to apply for the CDS exam for IMA as long as you apply before you turn 24. Make sure to check the specific age cutoff for the exact year you plan to apply.

I hope this answer helps you. If you have more queries then feel free to share your questions with us we will be happy to assist you.

Thank you and wishing you all the best for your bright future.

my dob is 29 11 2003 i join college in 2022 my courses duration is 4.6 year i completed in 2027 March i am eligible cds 2027

monag2673 24th Aug, 2024

To determine your eligibility for the CDS (Combined Defence Services) exam in 2027, we need to consider the age criteria set by the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC), which conducts the exam.

For the CDS exam, the age criteria generally are as follows:

  1. Indian Military Academy (IMA) : Candidates should be between 19 to 24 years old.
  2. Indian Naval Academy (INA) : Candidates should be between 19 to 24 years old.
  3. Air Force Academy (AFA) : Candidates should be between 19 to 24 years old.
  4. Officers’ Training Academy (OTA) : Candidates should be between 19 to 25 years old.

Your date of birth is 29th November 2003. By March 2027, you will be 23 years and 4 months old. This means you fall within the eligible age range for all branches (IMA, INA, AFA, and OTA) for the CDS exam.

Given that you will complete your course in March 2027, you should be eligible to apply for the CDS exam in 2027, provided you meet other criteria such as nationality, marital status, and educational qualifications. Make sure to check the official CDS notification for any updates or changes in the eligibility criteria closer to the exam date.

my age 21 years 3 months........ how many attempts i have left for CDS ima 2025

Kanishka kaushikii 22nd Aug, 2024

Hello aspirant,
The upper age limit for CDS IMA is 24 years. Since you are currently 21 years 3 months old, you have 2 years and 9 months left to appear for the CDS IMA exam. This means you can attempt the exam 3 more times before reaching the age limit.

However, please note that this is just a general estimate and the actual number of attempts may vary depending on the specific notification released by the UPSC for the CDS exam in 2025. It is always advisable to refer to the official notification for accurate information regarding the age limit and number of attempts allowed.

I hope this information helps you.

my dob is 29/11/2003 and my graduation will be completed in August 2026 i will be eligible for cds exam 2027 and how many attempts will available after graduation

Ishita 18th Aug, 2024

Hello Aspirant

The eligibility criteria for CDS is that the candidate must be between the ages of 19 to 25 years. Since you were born in 2003, that will make you 24 years old, making you eligible for the exam.

But, just to be on the safer side, I would suggest that you start appearing for the exam now itself since you have crossed the minimum age limit and it would give you the practice that you need.

Hope this helps

Ishita 11th Aug, 2024

Yes, you are eligible for CDS 2 2026 IMA Entry.

The age limit for IMA entry through CDS is 20-24 years as of 2nd January of the exam year. Since your date of birth is 01/01/2003, you will be 23 years old on 2nd January 2026, within the IMA entry age limit. So, you can apply for and sit for the IMA CDS exam.

But remember, the number of attempts for CDS IMA for you will be very limited as you will only have one year to crack the exam because next year, you will turn 24. The exam is conducted twice a year

My DOB is 19/11/2004 completing my graduation in september 2027 how many attempts I have for cds entry for IMA only

vaibhavi bhalsod 8th Aug, 2024

Hello student

The Combined Defence Services (CDS) exam is conducted by the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) for admission to the Indian Military Academy (IMA) and other defence academies.


To determine the number of attempts you have for CDS entry for IMA, we need to consider the following factors:


1. _Age limit_: The age limit for IMA is 19-24 years.

2. _Graduation completion_: You will complete your graduation in September 2027.

3. _DOB_: Your DOB is 19/11/2004.


Assuming you attempt the CDS exam immediately after completing your graduation, here's a possible scenario:


- 2027: First attempt (age 22-23 years)

- 2028: Second attempt (age 23-24 years)

- 2029: Not eligible due to age limit (will be 25 years old)


Therefore, you will have approximately 2 attempts for CDS entry for IMA, considering your age and graduation completion. However, please note that this calculation is based on the assumption that you attempt the exam immediately after graduation and that the age limit remains the same.


It's essential to check the official UPSC notification for the CDS exam each year to confirm the eligibility criteria and age limit.

Sir my date of birth is 3 May 2003.....I want to know that....how many attempts I have left for CDS IMA Date: 25 July 2024

Prachi Kumari 25th Jul, 2024

Hello,

For CDS (Combined Defence Services) exam conducted by the UPSC (Union Public Service Commission) for admission to the Indian Military Academy (IMA), the eligibility criteria regarding age are as follows:

  1. Age Limit :
    • Unmarried male candidates born not earlier than 2nd January 2001 and not later than 1st January 2006 are eligible.

Since your date of birth is 3rd May 2003, you fall within the eligible age range for the CDS exam.

  1. Number of Attempts :
    • There is no restriction on the number of attempts for the CDS exam as long as you meet the age criteria.

Therefore, you have as many attempts as you need until you cross the upper age limit (which is usually around 24 years for CDS IMA, but it's always best to check the latest notification from UPSC for any changes).

As of now, based on your age, you are eligible to appear for the CDS exam and have multiple attempts remaining.

Good luck with your preparations!
