Answer laterIf i will do betch from matalurgical engineering then can i applicable for AFCAT exam. Please explain and suggest me.
Yeah Definitely, you can apply for Technical, Flying as well as Non Flying Branches in AFCAT after Metallurgical Engineering. Of course the requirements for Metallurgical engineering are comparatively less than Mechanical or perhaps Electrical Engineers in AIR FORCE, but never mind you can always make your place if you have will.
In AFCAT Flying Branch, doesnt matter you are from which branch, what matters is your performance in Aptitude test, Your Attitude and Determination during SSB Interview as well as your Fitness and accuracy levels.
