Hi student,

As per the latest CDS 2021 Eligibility criteria, a student is required to have a Graduation or equivalent degree from a recognised university to be eligible for CDS. So, no, a 12th pass student can't give CDS exam.

Feel free to ask doubts in the Comment Section.

I hope this information helps you.

Good Luck!

Hello,

No 10+2 passed out student can't give CDS exam as the minimum education qualification required by the candidate to be eligible for CDS is that the candidate need to have a Bachelor's Degree from a recognised University/college. So unless you complete your under graduation course you will not be eligible for CDS and the age limit to be eligible for CDS is between 19-24 years.  All aspiring candidates wanting to appear for CDS 2021 should be graduates and between the age group of 19 to 25 years.
