Hey,

Sorry to say aa per the eligibility criteria for AFCAT exam, students should have Maths and Physics in class 12th and should have scored a minimum of 50% marks in bothe the paper separately. As your scores are below 50% , so you will not be able to sit for the AFCAT exam.

Alternatively you can sit for CDS exam if you are so much dedicated to go to Air Force academy.

Hope that helps.

Thank you.

Dear student,

If you just cross the afcat exam at it's cut iff then you will have to appear for ssb interview in which your overall preparation is observed. If you perform exceptionally well in the interview then there are chances that you might be selected because, marks of a candidate matters and if you haven't scored well then it will be a drawback for you. In the interview, the panel would be impressed by somebody who has secured higher marks but don't lose hope, you still hace chances, just give your best at the interview.

Hello,

You need to hold a graduation degree in order to apply for both of the CDS and AFCAT exam. Your class 12th marks won't pose any hindrance.

The education qualification needed for CDS are:

• For I.M.A. and OTA, candidates should have a bachelor's degree from a university or equivalent degree from institutions that have been recognized by the Central/State Government.

• For INA candidate needs to have a Degree in Engineering from a recognized University/institution.

• Also, to apply to Air Force Academy, the candidates need a degree from a recognized university( with Physics and Mathematics at 10+2) or a Bachelor’s degree in Engineering.

Also, apart from educational eligibility criteria, you also need to fulfill the other criteria to be eligible. Check the link below for more information regarding this

Hello Aspirant,

In AFCAT. Fyling branch, Ground duty(technical) and Ground duty (non-technical) are the 3 posts you can apply for.

As far as the educational qualification is concerned , for flying duty , candidates must have passed Class 12 with 60% in Maths and Physics and graduated in any discipline/BE/BTech/Cleared section A and B exam of Associate Membership of Institution of Engineers (India) or Aeronautical Society of India with 60%.

For Ground Duty (technical) -Candidates must have completed Class 12 with 60% in Physics and Mathematics and a minimum of four years degree graduation/integrated post-graduation in Engineering/Technology from recognized university.

Should have cleared Sections A and B examination of Associate Membership of Institution of Engineers (India) or Aeronautical Society of India or Graduate membership examination of the institution of Electronics and Telecommunication Engineers by actual studies with 60% in computer, electrical,electronics ,instrumentation & control or IT  specializations in engineering.

So without 60% in both math and physics in class 12 ,you are not eligible to apply for technical posts.

On the other hand ,

For Ground Duty (non-technical)

The educational requirements are as follows:

Administration and Logistics( Anyone)

Bachelor's degree (three years) from a recognised university in any discipline with at least 60% or equivalent
