Hi Anupama,

In order to become IAS officer you have to complete your graduation first after passing your higher secondary examination. There is no specific course or stream required. What is needed is that the candidate should have bachelor degree in any stream or should be in final year of graduation.

Then you will have to crack Civil service examination conducted by UPSC. UPSC conducts civil services examination in three following phases:

i) Preliminary examination

ii) Mains

iii) Personal Interview

• Word Power Made Easy (by Norman Lewis)
  This is the go-to book to improve your vocabulary. It is not a book to be read but a book to work with daily to enrich your vocabulary.

• High School Grammar and Composition( by Wren and Martin)
  It is a very good book for people who want to improve their grammar skills. It helps to understand and conceptualise different aspects of grammar and it is a must have book for anyone with poor grasp on verbal ability or who wants to make up with the basics of english.
  
  Read books from different genres
  The ultimate key to improve your verbal ability is to read extensively and to read books from different genres. This ensures that when the time for reading comprehension comes you are well acquainted with different writing styles and topics. Reading extensively also improves your reading speeding over a period of time. There are no shortcuts here.

Hi Bhavarth,

It's really good that you want to keep a backup option while preparing for civil services.

Following are few courses to opt for:

• Bachelor of Commerce
• Bachelor of Arts
• Bachelor of Business Administration.
• Bachelor of Business Studies.
• Bachelor of Computer Application.
• Bachelor of Laws (LLB)

Good Luck

MBBS is pursued after your 12th whereas UPSC is an examination written after completed your Bachelor's degree, in your case MBBS. While MBBS is a 50 month course and after that you have 1 year mandatory internship period, you can certainly prepare for the Prelims which has the subjects that you have studied until your 12th.

UPSC is a 3 stage   selection process involving Prelims, Mains and Interview which tests your personality test. Prelims has 2 Papers namely General Studies and CSAT.

General Studies has Current Events, History of India and Indian National Movement, Indian and World Geography, Indian Polity and Governance, Economic and Social Development, Environmental Ecology, Biodiversity and Climate Change and General Science.

CSAT has Comprehension, Interpersonal skills including communication skills, Logical Reasoning and Analytical ability, Decision making and problem solving, General Mental Ability, Basic numeracy and Data Interpretation.

So these are the subjects that you can prepare while studying MBBS. It will be difficult but yes it is not impossible. Study NCERT books and keep yourself updated with these topics.
