To become both an IAS officer and a doctor, you can follow these steps:

1. Pursue MBBS: Start by completing an MBBS degree, which takes about 5.5 years in India. It provides you with the foundational medical knowledge needed to become a doctor.

3. Prepare for UPSC Exam: While in college or after completing MBBS, start preparing for the UPSC Civil Services Examination, a rigorous three-stage process (Prelims, Mains, and Interview) to become an IAS officer.

4. Time Management: Balance medical studies and UPSC preparation by creating a realistic schedule and staying disciplined.

5. Attempt UPSC Exam: After completing MBBS, or alongside if feasible, appear for the UPSC exam.

6. Career Shift: Once selected, you can serve as an IAS officer, using your medical expertise in public health, policymaking, or administration.

This dual role allows you to contribute to society through healthcare and governance.

Hello aspirant, The answer to this question is no. Both of these areas require your complete commitment and dedication. You can not manage both of these together. Also it is not allowed to do any other profession while performing duties as a IAS officer. If you want to practice medical profession then you have to leave your job.

It's great that you are taking the initiative to pursue your dream of becoming an IAS officer, Bettaswamy. Many working professionals like you crack the UPSC exam every year.

Anxiety often stems from dwelling on uncertainties. Instead, focus on what you can control – your daily preparation. Break down your study plan into manageable chunks and celebrate small goals. Challenge negative thoughts with realistic and empowering self-talk. Instead of "what if I fail," tell yourself, "I am putting in the effort to succeed, and I am capable of learning from any outcome." Practice relaxation techniques like meditation, deep breathing, or yoga to calm your mind and reduce stress.

Plan your study schedule around your work commitments. Utilize pockets of time for revision and dedicate focused study time during evenings or weekends.
