Hello,

If you're wholly and solely focused on cracking UPSC, go for graduation in humanities discipline such as political science, geography, public administration, economics, history as UPSC covers all these subject in its syllabus, and you can also have these as optional in Mains paper of UPSC, and choosing these will provide you more advantage in the sense, the optional paper is nothing short of graduation level studies, so your burden will minimize as you'll be already acquainted with the studies.

In general, there's no such restriction about belonging to certain stream will only make you qualify this exam, but yes, humanities students have their own advantage as they're already acquainted with the major part of the syllabus throughout the school as well as college academics life.

In case, you're not sure about this, you can also choose to have a back up plan, many engineering, CA, Medical field students too qualify this exam, so eventually it's all about your preparation, dedication and single-minded focus. The eligibility criteria of UPSC states that candidates need to attain 21 years and passed Bachelor's Degree in any discipline from a recognized university, you can appear even in your final year.

how ias and ips are selected on the basis of upsc civil services exam?

rachanapbennur 6th Oct, 2020

Hello Selvakumar!

All IAS, IPS and IFS aspirants give the common UPSC test. If there clear prelims and mains, then they are called for interview. The final ranking is based on the candidate's performance in both the exam and the interview.

Now, candidates are alloted their respective roles based on their ranking.

Each of IAS, IPS and IFS posts has different cutoffs. When the merit lists are released, candidates are asked to fill a form stating their order of preferences . The cutoff marks are in descending order for IAS, IPS and IFS. The candidate must fill the choice such that their score lies in the cutoff range of the post.

Another factor that decides the allocation process is the number of vacancies in each post. If number of vacancies are less than the number of applicants for that post, then all cannot be hired. The allotment also is based on r eservation policy as made by the government.
