Hello,
In order to appear for UPSC, you need to be 21 years old and passed graduation in any discipline from a recognized university, there is no minimum aggregate required in this case, you can apply even in the final year of graduation, provided you are able to show the proof of passing the qualifying examination within the stipulated timeframe.
UPSC Exam consists of three stages, Preliminary, Mains and Interview.
Prelims consists of two paper, GS I for 200 Marks where you need to score required cut-off against your category, second paper is CSAT which is qualifying by nature and consists of 200 Marks you need to score 33% only, 66 marks out of 200. This is MCQs based exam, and its numbers aren't added in the final list.
Second stage is Mains, which has four GS Papers,Two Optionals, One Essay, Two Language Paper, there are total nine papers, 250 marks for each paper, total is 1750 marks, this is further followed by Personality Test of 275 marks.

Hi aspirant,
Its nice that while studying in college someone thinking about upsc exam. For appearing upsc exam basic qualification is one need to be graduated, in your case you are graduated thats why yes you can appear for an exam.
Now you know that upsc exam has limited number of tries, so if you are confident enough then you can go for it and can pass with flying colours. But just think of your situation that right now you are studying in pg , so are you able to cope up with both the syllabus simultaneously, because in upsc exam they are covering lots of subjects.
just thinm and then apply. And yes again saying that you can appear for the exam.
Hope it will be helpful to clear your dilemma.

Firstly thank you
I am in graduation and I am preparing for it from now . I can't give it just after graduation because of age eligibility that's why I was thinking to do pg because I also wanted a backup plan.
Just tell me that can I give this exam during my pg I mean without completing it just in the mid of it ?
