I score 7.8 CGPA in 10th boards and I am state level athlete. Am I taking a right decision or not? Can arts students give the forest exam?

    Hello,
    You have to opt science stream with physics, chemistry and mathematics/ biology/agriculture as main subjects from a recognised board. Further to be eligible for appearing in civil services examination for joining IFS, you need to complete your graduation degree with one of the subjects mentioned here which are Animal Husbandry & Veterinary Science, Botany, Chemistry, Geology, Mathematics, Physics, Statistics and Zoology or a Bachelor's degree in Agriculture, Forestry or Engineering from a recognised university.
    All the best.
