IPS after 12th: Is it possible?
It is not possible to become an IPS Officer right after completing 12th standard!
In order to become an IPS Officer, you must apply for CSE exam conducted by the UPSC. You must also crack the exam (preliminary, mains and interview) in order to get selected for the training.
The basic eligibility criteria required to appear for this exam is – candidate must possess Graduate Degree from a recognized University/Institute!
So technically, 12th passed students can’t appear for this exam right after 12th. After completing 12th, they must complete Graduation first. After completing Graduation program successfully, they may take a shot and CSE and become an IPS Officer subsequently!
You may begin preparation after 12th though!
Interested candidates may start CSE preparation after 12th. Well, preparation can be started well before reaching 12th standard too!
