Civil Service Rules: Exam Admission requirements

The CSC or Civil Service Commission in the Philippines had a set of requirements that pertain to the admission before anybody can take the test. We have the rules in examination as also listed in the CSC website. These rules are actually the admission requirements for civil service exam.

Applicants are advised to check carefully whether they meet the admission requirements stated below. Only those who meet the admission requirements should apply for the examination, otherwise, their applications shall be disapproved and the examination fees paid shall be forfeited.

@Nelia Muli Pineda: You can still take the exam since the age requirement is at least 18 years old. You are 39. Take the exam as long as you need the eligibility certification.

@Ricardo Tagalogon: The qualification to take the exam is the applicant must not have taken the same level within 3 months from last exam taken. You can still take the examination. Then probably, you MUST enroll to any review center or buy a booklet reviewer for you have competency in taking the exam, which will help you pass this exam. Good luck and do your best!
