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.

Hey!

For becoming an IAS you have to prepare for the Civil Services examination conducted by UPSC (Union Public Service Commission) every year for various Government services like Indian Administrative Services (IAS), Indian Police Services (IPS) and Indian Forest Services (IFS) and Central Services such as Indian Audit and Accounts Service (IA&AS), Indian Foreign Service etc .

Since you are in 11th so firstly you will need any udergraduate degree to become eligible for giving this exam.Secondly you have to prepare yourself for the exam in very efficient way and with a goal oriented strategy as par the prevailing competition.You can take coaching in offline or online mode according to your suitability for exam preparation.

Hello. Congrats for thinking on becoming an IAS. I have researched and steps you must follow to become IAS are:-

1) After giving your 10th, choose any branch.

2) After your 12th, do any degree(3-4 years).

3) After getting graduated, 1 year coaching for IAS with self practice is important.

4) Attend mock tests and then finally write exams (I.e.prelims,mains).

5) If you qualify in mains then you'll have interview in Delhi.

6) Remember that the marks of mains and interview will be added.

All the best!
