    If you want to prepare for civil service then don't get yourself into B.Tech try some course like B.A, B.Sc. Take some literature course so that you can focus on civil service.

    For becoming an IPS officer your 12th marks don't matter and neither your stream matters. You have to give the entrance exam conducted by UPSC and for this you can do graduation in with any course. Your being a non medical student won't matter at all. Just do your best of the best in UPSC and you will surely achieve your dream. For the eligibility you need to have 45% marks in your graduation.

    Yes, you can surely become an IPS officer. You will have to give UPSC exam after clearing your graduation. It does not matter from which you do your graduation just make sure you score 45% minimum marks to be eligible for UPSC exam. But remember it is a very though exam the toughest in the country and one in the world so you will have to put in a lot of hard labour to clear it.

    It will not affect your IPS exam service, while in the interview they will ask you why your 12th percentage is low. I think the best course for IPS is going for B.A. As it will give you lots of time to prepare for your exams.
    Best of luck for your exams.
