Hello,

If you are over 40, you can still appear for many exams, but eligibility depends on the type of exam. For example:

• Government Jobs (UPSC, State PSCs) – Some posts have age relaxation, especially for reserved categories.

• Bank Exams (SBI, IBPS) – Usually the upper age limit is 30–32, but some specialist roles may allow older candidates.

• Railway Jobs – Age limits vary by post; some technical posts have higher limits.

• SSC Exams – Most have upper age limits below 40, but some non-technical posts may allow it.

• Education & Teaching – Many universities allow NET/SET exams for teaching; some have age limits, some don’t.

• Competitive Exams without age limit – Some professional exams like Chartered Accountancy (CA), CS, UPSC Civil Services for certain posts, or Open University courses have no strict age limit.

Hope it helps !
