how to become an IAS officer after 10th class?
Hello aspirant,
You can not become an IAS officer just after class 10th as you will have to have mandatory age limit which is 21 years and by the time you achieve the age 21 you can always complete your bachelors or equivalent diploma courses. Please go through complete eligibility and criteria for IAS officer which is available in the official website.
I hope it helps
To become an IAS officer, you should appear for UPSC examination. And for being eligible for UPSC, you should have completed your Bachelor's degree in any subject. So if you are still in your 10th, yu will need to wait for 5 years before you appear for UPSC and become an IAS officer.
UPSC is a 3 stage selection process involving Prelims, Mains and Interview which tests your personality test. Prelims has 2 Papers namely General Studies and CSAT.
