Hi, 1. To be eligible to sit for IAS (Indian Administrative Services) Exam conducted by UPSC (Union Public Service Commission) every year, one needs to be: An Indian National Citizen A graduate in any discipline from a recognized university and In the age limit of 21-30 years. 2. 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 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 your 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. 3. The examination pattern is same for all as the conducting body is one. There would be two papers in prelims- Reasoning Aptitude and English Comprehension. Followed by the main exam that would entirely be subjective. I would suggest you to spend quality time everyday by reading journals, magazines, newspapers, etc. For your knowledge I am sending you link of institutes that prepare student for Civil Exams. There are a few well known institutes for civil services coaching in India, and to know about these, you may refer to the following link. You may refine the search link as per your location of preference. tinyurl.com/ygp6wkk Feel free to revert. In case it resolves, you can close the thread by liking it or marking it as best. Good Luck.
