To answer your question, yes, ACET - Entrance test for actuarial Science exams can be given since 12th, but you need to be 18 years of age. Maths, Statistics, English, Data Interpretation and logic base should be clear for this entrance! Topics and Sample paper are provided on the official site.

Start studying and buckle up, give your 12th Standard Exam after which you can appear for ACET. And yes, Commerce or Science doesn’t matter. Just practice very hard as far as Maths and the rest of the Syllabus is concerned.

Shelly,First of all my wishes for your decision!The field you have chosen has a huge potential for growth in future. ACET exam is an entrance for students who want to pursue their career in actuarial science. The decision you took is excellent because you have to clear a series of 15 tests after clearing the ACET entrance and becoming a part of it. You hardly need around five years to complete the series. So I say it's a good idea to write an ACET exam if you have a determination to pursue actuarial science. read less

Absolutely you can. I would recommend pursuing actuarial exams from Actuarial society of the UK because it is accepted both in India and Abroad.
