Check the current notification before you plan around this
Dates, eligibility, syllabus and fees for this examination change from year to year, and we deliberately do not reproduce them here — a stale cut-off on a career website is worse than no cut-off at all. Everything above describes where the exam leads, which does not change annually. For the rules that do, read the official notification for the year you are applying in.
