There is no specific limit on the number of attempts a candidate can make for the SSC CGL examination, provided they meet the requisite age and educational eligibility criteria for the post they are applying for in that particular examination year.
  • Attempts: Unlimited, subject to age and other eligibility conditions.
  • Age Limit: The only constraint is the maximum age limit prescribed for the post, which varies (18-27, 18-30, 20-30, or up to 32 years) and includes category-wise relaxations (SC/ST/OBC/PwBD/ESM).

As long as a candidate is within the prescribed maximum age limit for a particular post on the crucial date mentioned in the notification, they are eligible to appear for the exam.
