Hello Lekhana,

As you are an IAS aspirant, you can choose and study any degree course because for IAS minimum education qualification needed is degree in any discipline. You you can take any degree course from streams like Science, Arts, Commerce, Humanities, Medical, Management etc.

Based on your profile it suggests that you are in your 12 th standard but stream is not know through your profile, but you have already chosen a stream in your 12 th so accordingly you can choose degree course and study or can switch your stream. For example, 12 th Science students can also study B.Com or B.A instead of B.Sc or B.Tech or M edical courses or any Bachelor's degree in science stream or else if you want then you can go with Bachelor's degree in Science. If you have chosen any stream other than Science then you can choose Bachelor's degree if you meet the eligibility criteria.

For IAS degree in Humanities is preferred because you'll be dealing with Subjects related to Humanities in IAS exam. But if you take any other steam apart from Humanities is also fine.

May this information helped you.

All The Best!!

Hello,

Most individuals follow the herd and pick services based on the majority's preferences, without considering their own personality or life's purpose. If you go by what you've heard, IAS is the best option, followed by IPS and IRS.

IAS is best overall

• In most cases, you must choose IAS as your first option. It gives you the best of both worlds. In terms of position, promotions, and benefits, IAS is the best service, and your family life will be minimally disrupted. In this sense, it outperforms any other service in India. The only stumbling block is the cadre and political meddling. Because the IAS is an all-India service, you are assigned to a cadre based on your rank.

IPS is most powerful

• In our nation, the IPS is the most powerful service. Within 34 years of service, you become a district SP and one of the most influential people in the district. You may contact the CM directly, and your name may be published in the newspaper on a regular basis.

IRS

• Finally, the IRS comes. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is a city-based organisation that deals with society's upper crust. The IRS posts 80-90 percent of its positions in good cities and deals with the upper crust of society. They enjoy a wonderful family life because they have job stability, which is guaranteed by a well-defined transfer policy that even the Indian government has to follow.

Atlast the choice is yours.

Hope it helped

Thank you

Dear student,

If we speak broadly then only the president of India can suspend an IAS officer after looking at the case.

But we must know that the central government has no less power, maybe it is not written on paper that it can suspend but central has rights to go through the matter and suggest what to do.

In case the suspension is permanent or more than a year then the central review committe is asked what to do in the case.

Now as you asked for what an IAS officer can be suspended then, it is very simple that law and administration is above anyone, no matter on which post a person is sitting but if someone violates the law, commit crimes then he/she will come under charge and so will happen to an IAS.

I hope this information helps you.

There are no combined degree programs with IAS coaching at Vision IAS Academy in Hyderabad. This is a specialized coaching center entirely dedicated to UPSC Civil Services Examination (CSE) preparation. Along with test series and interview training, their programs cover core courses for General Studies (GS), the Civil Services Aptitude Test (CSAT), and several optional topics. Aimed at UPSC test candidates, these programs are meant to offer thorough coaching.

Other schools in Hyderabad provide courses for students looking for an integrated solution that combines IAS coaching with college degrees. For example, Ignite IAS offers a B.A. degree along with IAS Coaching in a 3 year integrated course. Students using this program are meant to prepare for the UPSC tests while also working on their degrees. It offers an organized curriculum in line with the needs of the civil services examination.

La Excellence also provides a 3-year "IAS + Graduation" course, combining level studies with intensive IAS coaching. Balancing education and exam preparation, this program seeks to get students ready for the UPSC tests in concert with their coursework.

Students who want to start their UPSC study early in their academic career will find these combined courses really helpful. Their organized surroundings let pupils concentrate on their subjects and IAS training at once, hence perhaps lessening the time and work needed to pass the UPSC tests.

From my own experience, I can assure you that Pragnya IAS Academy offers a three-year integrated program including a degree course and thorough IAS coaching since I have only now started a similar course. Students are meant to use this program to assist them strike a balance between civil service preparation and their academic work. Furthermore, Pragnya IAS Academy provides a 5-year integrated program combining intermediate studies with IAS coaching for pupils who have already passed their 10th grade. From an early age, this program seeks to establish a solid basis for preparation for civil services. Over 15 years, more than 250 students have passed UPSC tests from the academy, which is noted for its good success rate. One of the best in India, it also has a 25% pass rate among the Prelims class candidates on their first try.

Some programs that students considering such might want to study are those offered at Pragnya IAS Academy, Ignite IAS, or La Excellence. They provide combined degree and IAS coaching courses customized to candidates' requirements.
