I want to prepare for IAS.so what subjects should I study...if you dont mind..please tell me some books name that will help in my exam

mahimadogra_6929406 Student Expert 10th Aug, 2019

Hey.

If you've completed your Class 12th and want to become an IAS officer, you need to complete any Undergraduation course first to be eligible to take the IAS exam. You can attempt the exam in the final year of your degree hence you cant start it's preparation during you degree too.

There are three stages in an IAS exam- Preliminary Examination, Mains Examination and Personal Interview. The Prelims exam will include General Knowledge and Aptitude.

You need to clear the prelims in order to qualify for the Mains exam. You need to choose one of the subject of your choice for the Mains paper. Hence you can choose any subject which you have an interest in.  If you choose to pursue your UG degree in any particular field like Sociology, Political Science, History, economics or even any science subject you can choose that too. Candidates who clear the Mains exam sit for the Interview. And the final selection is done on the basis of merit in mains exam as well as the Interview. To begin the preparation for UPSC, NCERT books are considered the best of class 6-12th. Along with it you can use Indian Polity book by Lakshmikant etc. Make sure you read the newspaper daily like the hindu for your preparation. You can use the link below for more details.

To become an IAS officer you will need to fight one of the toughest exams in the world. It is the Civil Services exam. The course of this exam covers every aspect such as history, geography, politics, general awareness, and many more topics. You will be evaluated on the basis of Prelims and Mains Examination.
