Hello Deepanshu!

For any exam in preparation for admission into the Indian Institute of Information Technology, Hyderabad, IIITH, you must know about a few key eligibility criteria set for the SPEC-2025 exam.

SPEC-2025 Eligibility Criteria:

Educational Qualification:

You must have passed 12th grade or equivalent from any recognized board. Since you mentioned that you completed your 12th grade in the year 2022, that usually fits the eligibility criterion.

Age Limit:

The age for the SPEC exam isn't very specific to IIIT-H, but you have to ensure that your age falls in the permitted range as indicated by the institute.

Year of Passing:

For SPEC-2025, the common eligibility criterion is that one should not have more than a gap of one year between passing 12th and making an application for the exam. You passed in 2022, and an application in 2025 would mean three years, which might not align with what is generally permitted gap.

Eligibility Criterion - Subject Requirements:

Check specific subject requirements for the examination. In the case of IIIT-H, it means mainly a robust foundation in Mathematics and Science.

Other Requirements:

At times, there are specific conditions or other criteria that apply based on the institutes' policies or changes in the admission procedures.

What to Do

Check Official Details: Go to the official website of IIIT-H or contact its admissions office to check out the latest eligibility criteria and see if no recent changes have occurred.

Discuss with the institute: Ask them if given your circumstance, you qualify as this falls under exception conditions.

Summarily, you'll pass general eligibility but what will prove to be three years in between that might make this application a problem. You can then refer to IIIT-H for the most up-to-date and specific advice.
