  • A degree of any of the Universities incorporated by an Act of the Central or State Legislature in India or other educational institutions established by an Act of Parliament or declared to be a Deemed University under the UGC Act, 1956, or an equivalent qualification.
  • The date of birth as mentioned in the High School/Higher Secondary certificate will be considered by the UPSC. for the UPSC IAS 2021 exam, the age will be counted from the date July 1 of the notification year.

my name is Vijay Gupta I am studying in 11th standard with subject science I am interested in in Civil Service exam category IAS which subject should I take after completing 12th standard

chinchujoseph1993 5th Jan, 2021

Hello,

To become an IAS officer there is no single course that you have to do. The eligibility criteria states that the Candidate must hold a graduation degree in any discipline from a reputed university. After this you need to qualify the Union Public Service Commission Civil Services Exam. The exam itself is structured into three parts – the Preliminary (Civil Services Aptitude Test – CSAT), Main Exam, and finally the Interview.

So first complete your graduation and in the meantime read more about the eligibilty criteria like the number of attempts, age limit, etc.

I  have shared a link with you below where you can read about the eligibility criteria: https://competition.careers360.com/articles/upsc-ias-eligibility-criteria#IAS-Eligibility-Criteria-2021--Educational-Qualification


Inculcate the habit of reading the daily newspaper and keep yourself aware of  latest happenings in the country and the world.

Work on your interpersonal skills and communication skills. Your personality is tested during the interview.

Good Luck

My sister is in 7th std and she want to be an IAS officer. She is very good in Maths. How can we start preparing her for UPSC Exam from now?

Anurag Khanna 2nd Jan, 2021

Hello Aspirant,

See it is to early to make your sister prepare for UPSC Civil Services examination, it is the good thing that she dreams to be an IAS officer but everything has certain time period to start or end and if she is in class 7th then let her play and enjoy her life according to her point of view. I am saying this because the preparation of UPSC Civil Services Examination is not a tad easy task but yes if she wants to be an IAS officer then I would recommend you to make him fully aware of the happenings in her surroundings and apart from this she should have proper command on the Social Science subject from class 11th to class 12th. She should also develop the proper habit of newspaper reading and if the newspaper would be in English language then it is much better but if it is in any other language then also it is ok but she should have proper knowledge on current affairs which can only be developed by the reading of newspapers and magazines. So for now this much tasks will be best for her step towards the preparation of UPSC Civil Services examination.
