Can a 12th pass student join state forest department?

Yes, Forest Guard recruitment requires 12th pass qualification. Selection includes written exam, physical test, and walking endurance test. It is a good option for those interested in nature and outdoor work.

Female candidates can also apply. Many states have separate quota for women in forest jobs. It is a safe government career.

I cleared Forest Guard exam in Madhya Pradesh. Written was moderate, but physical walking test was toughest. Still, the job is peaceful and stable compared to police.
