Age Calculator by DOB — Calculate Exact Age in Years, Months & Days
MakeCard Age Calculator is a precision date calculation tool designed to determine your exact chronological age in years, months, days, hours, and minutes from your Date of Birth (DOB).

Leave the "Calculate Age As On" date set to Today, or select a specific cutoff date stated in your exam notification (e.g. 01/08/2026).
Click the green "Calculate Age" button.
