Answer 1

Yes, you can definitely apply for it. Since CDS is conducted twice a year, you can appear in any of the two provided you meet the CDS eligibility criteria. To appear in the CDS exam, you must meet a certain age and education criteria.

CDS Age Limit

Courses	Age Limit
Indian Military Academy (IMA)	19 to 24 years
Indian Naval Academy (NA)	19 to 24 years
Air Force Academy (AFA)

20 to 24 years

Officers' Training Academy (OTA - Men)

19 to 25 years

Officers Training Academy (OTA - Women, Non-Technical)

19 to 25 years

To know more about the education criteria and physical standards, you must read CDS eligibility criteria .

Answer 2

Combined Defence Services examination is held twice a year and they have no relationship between them. CDS 1 paper does not correlate to CDS 2 paper. So if you have not applied for CDS 1 Then it does not pop a problem for you for applying for CDS 2 paper. Go ahead
