AN ANSWER TO THE QUERY
Hello Srinivas...thanking you for showing interest in my blog.....Regarding your questions.....yes there is strict height requirement for IPS i.e 165 cm .....But there is no such criteria for services like IAS,IFS,IRS,etc....There is a compulsory medical test for everybody immediately after the interview.....UPSC ask everyone who have appeared in interview to go through medical test in different hospitals in Delhi e.g. Guru Teg Bahadur,sahadara, Lok Nayak,Pahar ganj,etc....In the medical test all the basic things are going to be tested e..g eye,blood,blood pressure,ears,x-ray,etc....so there is a detailed medical check up.....regarding cadre...it is being done during training...for ex IAS and IPS selected in year 2007 have not been allotted cadre so far...they may be allotted next year....the total training for IAS,IPS and other services varies...for ex for IAS -2 years,IPS-18 months approx,IFS-3years etc but this training schedule is very unique type....actually you have to undergo some field postings too during training itself.....you can read all the details in the notification issued by UPSC in "Employment News" for civil services examination 2009.......I hope I have answered all your questions...for any further query you can write me.......enjoying blogging....

Hi, Thanks for your quick response and for the detail information you have provided.
I need some additional info also. Can you please respond when you get some free time?
1) In the medical tests, what is the B.P level expected? When I had a routine medical checkup some time back, my B.P was 130 (on the higher side). Would that be a problem? The rest of the things are ok. I have not gone for checkup in the recent past. Are there instances wherein people were rejected based on the medical tests (specifically based on B.P. if you are aware of)?
2) As per my knowledge, for the batch of 2007, prelims was in May'07, mains in Oct/Nov'07, Interviews in April'08, results in May'08 and training (I believe) started in Sept'08. Is this how the schedule would usually be?
Once again thanks for taking time to clarify my doubts. Your blogs and responses based on your real time experience are beneficial to all the aspirants.
Have fun and keep blogging
--Srinivas
