I am class 9th. How to prepare for IAS exam from now?

Hi Himanshu! It is a great thing that you want to prepare for IAS exam from now itself. It is always a wise thing to know your future goals and start working on them early in life. One best thing is, the subjects you will be studying in your 9th and 10th standard will be of great help in IAS exam as the main exam of UPSC contains subjective questions related to Geography, History, Indian Politics and Governance, Environmental awareness, Economic Development of India, General Science. So do study these subjects thoroughly. Apart from this, there is an objective exam which is known as prelim exam, which contains objective questions related to Maths (up to 10th standard), English language, logical reasoning and general knowledge. You need to read a lot of newspapers to stay updated with the current affairs. About taking up a stream in 11th, you need not be confused. You can take any stream in 10+2 and even for your graduation as the IAS exam is performance-based and not qualification based.
