Hi Ajinkya, UPSC conducts civil services examination every year and on the basis of this examination a number of IAS, IPS, IFS officers are recruited. The notification for this exam comes out in the month of January end. To crack the exam, the preparation requires the right approach along with the right study materials and strategy. The preparation requires focused study rather than plain hard work. You can read guide books like General Studies Manual, Indian Politics by Lakshmikanth, Ancient History by D.D.Kausambi’s, R.S.Agarwal [Arithmetic], Wren &amp; Martin [English Grammar], Logical Reasoning and Data Interpretation by Arun Sharma, etc. You may even study journals and even watch television for important news reports. Reading English newspapers will also help the students to get a good hold on the English language. Always keep the syllabus and past five years question papers. For preparation, I am sending you links of institutes offering coaching. Please go through it. tinyurl.com/34exbg7 tinyurl.com/2w9yemx As for the subjects I would suggest you to opt for the ones which you are comfortable and find scoring.

Hi Ajinkya, Well as per your query I would say that there are a few criterion that needs to be in mind while selecting optional for IAS. *First and the foremost, the Candidate must be comfortable in grasping the concepts of the subject. *Availability of study material is also an important factor in determining the optional subject. *Candidate should not choose a subject just because it's said to be scoring or his friends are choosing it. As far as your prior educational background is concerned, you can opt for either of Science subjects or Medical Sciences along with any other subject for which you possess keen interest and passion. For forbidden combinations visit UPSC website. So Once and for all, it's about candidate's own comfort in understanding the subject and choosing the optional subjects should be done carefully since it is the very deciding factor for the candidate's selection in this prestigious examination. All the Best for your Success! Feel free to revert. In case it resolves, close the thread by liking it or marking as best.
