9 years agoIf you want to go for UPSC then you should go with BA with any specialisation whether Political Science, Economics or History. Whatever you will study during 3years of your BA will be beneficial to you in clearing preliminary exam and which will surely help you in selecting your core subjects for main exams. UPSC is all about theory and to understand theory better you should go for BA instead of LLB. All the best. -
Just do graduation from any arts/humanities subject.Don't go for law as the entire process will take 5yrs and then preparing for UPSC is impossible.
Political Science,History,Sociology are really good.Complete your graduation and while doing your graduation start preparing for UPSC.
Personally don't go for Eco(H) if you don't want to go into that field because Eco(H) is a tough course and has a lot of math too.So if you're capable for that than yes otherwise no.
Good luck!!!
