I am preparing for upsc exam. Now my education qualifications are 3 years polytechnic. But bachelor degree is required to give upsc exam. Polytechnic course not bachelor degree. So I will do Btech, which will be 3 years degree. So in 3 years Btech degree will I be eligible for the exam?

Hello student

I understand your concern. Yes, you are correct that a bachelor's degree is required to appear for the UPSC exam. Since your 3-year polytechnic course is not considered a bachelor's degree, pursuing a B.Tech degree will be a good option.

After completing your 3-year B.Tech degree, you will be eligible to appear for the UPSC exam. The B.Tech degree is a valid qualification for the UPSC exam, and you can appear for the exam after completing your degree.

However, keep in mind that the UPSC exam has specific eligibility criteria, including:

1. Age limit: You should be at least 21 years old and not more than 32 years old (relaxable for certain categories).

2. Educational qualification: You should have a bachelor's degree from a recognized university.

3. Number of attempts: You are allowed six attempts (relaxable for certain categories).

Additionally, it's important to note that the UPSC exam is a highly competitive exam, and preparation is key. While pursuing your B.Tech degree, you can also start preparing for the UPSC exam by:

1. Studying the syllabus and exam pattern.

2. Reading books and articles related to current affairs, history, geography, and other relevant subjects.

3. Practicing mock tests and previous year's question papers.

4. Joining a study group or coaching institute for guidance and support.

Stay focused, and with dedication and hard work, you can achieve your goal!
