To help you for further, here's a brief of UPSC examination pattern
UPSC civil services examination  has 3 stages listed below :-

*prelims exam :- it is objective paper and is of qualifying nature , so you just  need to at least qualify it to be eligible for mains examination, the score /marks obtained by you in your prelims examination is not added up or used in your final merit. Your prelims exam consist of 2 papers: -
-) general studies 1
-) general studies II ( csat )
You get 2 hours for each paper

*Mains exam. :- it is descriptive /written examination . There are a total of 9 papers  which are listed below:-
-) paper A :- compulsory indian language.
-) paper B :- english
-) essay

-) optional I
-) optional II

The compulsory indian language and english are qualifying in nature . You just need to qualify them. The marks obtained by you in these two papers will not be counted towards merit list.

*Interview :- After qualifying mains, you have to go through interview round, and it is more of test of your personality rather than knowledge.

So, if you managed to sail through all the three stages  then congratulations you can become an ias  officer depending upon  rank obtained by you in UPSC civil services examination ,your preference of services and your category .

Hello aspirant

IAS IPS is not about money it's about responsibility So choose this only if your very passionate about then go for it.

A Pharmacy business gives you a lot of money which will not be fixed nor certain.

So its upto you what you want to do.If you care for only money then go business but If you feel like serving your nation then go for UPSC CSE. Pharmacy business is also a great work for the society but its not like Civil Services.

Hope this helps. All the best.

See IAS IPS is not a way to earn only but also a responsibility. So If you aren't very much passionate about it then it will be hard for you to compete in UPSC.

A Pharmacy business will give you a lot of money which will not be fixed nor certain.

So its upto you what you want to do? If you care for only money then go business but If you feel like serving your nation then go for UPSC CSE. Pharmacy business is also a great work for the society but its not like Civil Services.

I hope you got my point.

Have a great eve!
