There is no steadfast rule that a Candidate should have completed his/her Graduation full term. The eligibility rule states that a Candidate should have completed his/her Graduation in any discipline from a recognised University. This University should be incorporated by Act of Central or State Legislature of India. So, as long as your University is a recognised one, you are eligible to appear for UPSC examinations.

Hi,

The service preference in your DAF decides your career and destiny .
A lot of times ,due to negligence ,ignorance and lack of knowledge candidates make a wrong choice.

To help all of them ,I am sharing my view on the optimum service priority.
SERVICE PREFERENCE

1. IAS
2. IFS
3. IPS
(Above 3 are interchangeable)

Thank you!

• Get thorough with the syllabus and make a habit of reading things daily and revising it too.
• Set personalised day goals and try to achieve them daily so work honestly.
• Make your own notes after you finish reading.
• Before starting NCERTs and news paper Watch some awesome videos on Indian history, society, our Constitution. Available on YouTube

  • Then watch available videos on some videos for  various subjects like Polity, Economy, History. Have a basic understanding.

  • Go through the booklist for upsc.

  Reading newspaper

  • Avoid in the beginning. Since you do not have any idea on what to read and how to read. After 4–5 months of preparation only start reading newspaper.

Dear Aspirant,

You can give prelims if you are currently in the final year but for mains, you must have your degree with you.

Hello there!

Greetings!

To be eligible for upsc there's no minimum percentage barrier , the only condition to be eligible is that  candidate must hold a Bachelor's Degree from any of the recognized universities , so there's no requirement of minimum percentage in graduation  to be eligible for upsc , so irrespective of percentage you get if you pass your graduation,  you will be eligible for upsc. A candidate should be a minimum of 21 years to be eligible for upsc as well.

Thankyou

Hii aspirants

let me clear your doubt.

to become an ias officer you have to qualify UPSC examinations that occur in three stages: Preliminary, Mains and Personal Interview.

To prepare for this exam you have to work very hard. Its not an easy task. So first of all start your preparation  with the basic NCERT books of Class VI-XII of History, Geography, Economics, and Science. For a properguide  and full booklist you can visit Mrunal's blog or Unacademy's website (Roman Saini's lessons). It will be very much helpful for you. Also Develop a habit of reading The Hindu daily to be updated with current affairs.

hi,

there is no colleges which provide ias exam courses along with bsc curriculum. see ias exam is a competitive exam and if you want to join as an ias officer you need to self study a lot beside your graduation, and take special coaching  for ups exmas. however there is several exams like upsc prelims and mains need to qualify along with personal interview rounds. hope you may understand.
