Because of this reason you can come back home after attending the college and start your preparation for UPSC civil service examination or even go to coaching classes of IAS. Near by your college and university. 2. Knowledge The second main advantage of selecting Bachelor of arts in your under graduation is the knowledge that you get. For example if you select history political Science and public administration as your main subjects in your Bachelor of arts degree. Then it can help you a lot in when you are preparing for UPSC exams especially in the Mains exam along with prelims. For example in the prelims exam, there are 2 papers, one is of main subjects and other one is CSAT and aptitude test. 3. Low Costs Another big advantage of choosing Bachelor of arts in your undergraduation is that the college fees for these degrees are low.
