    BHU has good facilities but Allahabad city gives you environment of civil service not Allahabad university. I have also cleared the BHU BA SOCIAL SCIENCE EXAM this year (2017) and secured 217 rank (219/450) & Allahabad (195/300) I have been selected in both but I am going BHU.

    Hi,
    In both the university, your focus should be on choosing the one which offers best faculty and subject understanding in parallel with the UPSC syllabus. Both Allahabad & BHU are good universities and have produced a large number of civil servants in the country. So, you should weigh your option accordingly taking into consideration your mains optional as well.

In my opinion, if you want to prepare for UPSC or any other competitive exams later, you can pursue a BA in Political Science, Economics, History, or Sociology. Since their syllabus is heavily equipped with GK, Indian and world history, public policy, public administration, Indian and world politics, it'll be easier for you to strengthen your base.
