Hi,

For MBBS degree you are required to have PCB in your class 12th and that too above 50% marks in it. And then you need to qualify NEET - UG. And after this you will be getting admitted into a college on the basis of your marks and rank in NEET exam. And then MBBS is a 5 year programme and along with it there is also a duration for internship. And then you will be granted MBBS degree.

For IAS which is conducted by UPSC, the minimum eligibility is that you should be a graduate and you must qualify UPSC exam with very good rank to get the post.

Both of them are elite class jobs and have their own perks. And if you talk about duration then absolutely the sooner you can qualify UPSC exams sooner will be you getting this job. But both of them are best at their own level and field. And both of this requires very hard work.

Talking about the job profiles either its DOCTOR or IAS OFFICER , they both are quite reputed and significant in their own fields. It toally depends on you what you want to be in life or what is more important or in which your interests lie.

If you give importance to money than both the profession has quite a high pay scale.

• Its true that a career in medical like DOCTORS is nice and valuable. As far as we all know that doctors are very high paid in India.
• On the other hand an IAS officer is 'A' grade job in India ,you can say at the top of government jobs , in doctors profession you can expect some things like high salary and reputation but an IAS officer's job is very much more than these little things ,after IAS exams eligible candidates are appointed as SDM, revenue officer ,DM ,ADM,CDO  and they control the whole district they get administration power ,salary , respect , government facilities they get everything moreover you get a chance to serve your country.

There are many examples of Doctors who turned to be an IAS officer. So its totally your choice to be a doctor or an IAS officer. As if you dreamt of being a doctor you can go for that and after your medical if you want to go for IAS it is also possible.

HOPE IT HELPS..

Dear Candidate,

If I may add a suggestion to you, kindly give a thought to Humanities too if you are trying for UPSC. Anyhow you will have to select your optional subject while you are preparing for the same. At that time, you can alter your optional as per the study you have done over the years.

Anyhow whichever branch you take, you will have to study regardless of the branch you invest time into. Think about how you will prepare for civil exams. Dividing the time of you will study everyday for 1 hour or 5-6 hours for civil services on weekends depends totally upon you. Divide your time & see if that works for you irrespective of the branch you take.

1. Before trying to understand how to start preparing for UPSC at home, you should prepare yourself for the journey.

2.To become an IAS officer  , it is necessary to be like an officer with a well-organized daily routine.

3.The syllabus is the soul of any exam. Knowing the syllabus is the foremost thing to do before you go through the books.

4.The newspapers are the most important aspect of the IAS exam.

5.The NCERT textbooks from classes six to twelve play a very significant role in IAS exam preparation.

6.It is helpful to make short notes during UPSC preparation.
