hey subhashini

I dont know what language your question is in. But I guess I could understand what you mean.

It is "i an doing my BTech, how to prepare for IAS.?" right?

If it is so, then follow my answer.

Since UPSC is not an easy exam, you have to put in a lot of effort to manage both BTech and UPSC. You cant afford to lose either of them.

So, Get Hindu newspaper and make it sure to read all the important news and make not of it. This can keep you updated in current affairs.

Your NCERT books of class 6 - 12 are the best for all upsc exams. So never neglect NCERT books. Make a thorough study of it. This will the core for you social - history , polity, economy, geography. It is the only best book.

For aptitude, comprehension and basic numery, all your engineering subjects are enough. I would say more than enough. Because, it is just test for aptitude and basic problem solving abilities. WHich engineers do every day.

For science and math, be thorough with portions of class (till) 12th and also that of engineering. So it will help you a lot.

NOTE: This is not exact preparation for IAS, I just gave an idea for how to prepare during BTech. So, the best thing would be, make some preparation during BTech and make the best after you BTech. You have to prepare exclusively for UPSC to clear your IAS exams and interview which always follows.

I hope I answered You

Good Luck

Hello Aspirant! Clearing IAS does not depend on your course. To be eligible to attempt UPSC, you must hold any degree from an Indian University. It doesn't matter if it's Arts or Engineering or Medicine. You have geography in your course which is a part of UPSC, so that you'll feel easier.

All that matters is your UPSC exam preparation. The syllabus includes History of India, Geography of India, Politics of India, Logical reasoning, Decision making and problem solving. You must study this syllabus in parallel to your college course, or you can choose to study History and Politics in your undergraduate for making it easier.

Stay optimistic! Get the best material for your UPSC exams. Nothing is easy in life; just move forward with full determination and confidence. YOU CAN CLEAR IAS EXAMS!!!

Dear Candidate,

It is not possible to become an IAS Officer right after completing 12th standard.To become an IAS officer you must crack CSE exam held by UPSC.These exam has three different levels that is preliminary, mains and interview in order to get selected for training.

The basic eligibility criteria required to appear for this exam is – candidate must possess Graduate Degree from a recognized University/Institute.So technically, 12th passed students can’t appear for this exam right after 12th. After completing 12th, they must complete Graduation first. After completing Graduation program successfully, you can appear for CSE exam.

Thank you
