choosing BA can be really helpful for your UPSC examination, this is because in BA you will be learning subjects like history , polity etc which are a part of the UPSC syllabus so it will help you in your upsc examination
Some of the best graduation courses regarding upsc are :-

Hello,
If you have ambition to become IPS Officer, then you need to appear for UPSC exam, qualify the same with good rank against your respective category, now when it comes to the eligibility criteria of appearing in this exam, there is no such restrictions of belonging to specific stream, candidates within the age group of 21-32 years can appear provided they have passed graduation in any stream from a recognized university, they can also appear in the final year provided they can show the proof of the passing examination within the time period as prescribed by the authority regarding this.
As I said there is no such compulsion to belong to specific stream for UPSC, you can pursue graduation in any stream of your choice, the reason I'm saying this is if you look at previous year toppers they come as diverse backgrounds as that of engineering/medical/science/commerce etc, now the subject combinations at 10+2 level depends in which field you want to go, for a technical field you can choose PCM, for medical or biology related domain you can go for PCB, in case you choose PCMB you will have the best options of both the world, it depends in which subject your interest lies( of course with aforementioned courses there are various options but I have highlighted only the core ones that go with the domain) and it's good you're thinking about UPSC, but you also have to understand that there is long to way to go for the same, and you should choose a field as per your preference, for example many aspirant they go for a career in their chosen field, gain some experiences, and later if they feel like appearing for this exam, they do the same, you should follow this path if at present you're not sure of only appearing for UPSC, and this exam is highly competitive and moreover it's good to have a back up plan also, other than this the only advantage candidates who pursue bachelor's degree in specialization with subjects like political science/international relations/geography/economics/law/history/public administration/sociology to name a few have is there is considerable overlap of these subjects with the syllabus that of general studies and optional subjects, that's it, so explore your choices wisely, you should remember that it's always your personal attributes of single-minded focus, dedication and perseverance that will help you succeed in this exam, it doesn't matter in which place you live, and many candidates even from Hindi background qualify this exam, this exam has got extensive syllabus definitely, but with proper plan and strategy nothing is impossible, many candidates have even qualify this exam without coaching, solely on self-efforts, hence you should be well aware of what to read, what to skip, how much to reach, keeping resources minimal ,revision time and again, going through newspaper on a dally basis, start off with NCERT and then move towards standard books, go though previous year papers and apply mock tests on regular basis, these are key steps while initiating the preparation of UPSC exam.
Basically, to apply for Indian Police Service examination a candidate must hold a Bachelor's degree from any of the universities recognized by the UGC or have an equivalent qualification. So it doesn't really matter which course you take on but since you have completed your 12th standard with commerce stream ,you can go for higher studies like bachelor's degree B.com,BBA,BCA etc. After completion of bachelor's degree you can apply for IPS examination.

Dear Aspirant Hope you are doing well Now let me go through your question
No i don't think there should any problem regarding it
You can can apply for it without any hesitation
Physical eligibility
Hope it helps
First of the the eligibility criteria to appear for UPSC exam is passed graduation in any discipline from a recognized university, you can appear even in the final year of graduation, there is no minimum aggregate required in this case, the age limit for general candidates is between 21 to 32 years, relaxation is offered to reserved categories.
See, there is no such thing as best group/stream after 10th or specific stream after 12th that will help you qualify UPSC exam, the syllabus of UPSC is more humanities oriented as it includes subjects such as history, geography, economic, polity etc, now the only advantage people coming from humanities stream have is they are well acquainted with the subjects at 10+2 level or even at graduation, unlike say people coming from science/commerce/engineering background, if UPSC is the only aim in your life then you can go ahead with choosing humanities stream at 10+2 level and graduation with majors in subjects like history, geography, economics, law, political science, public administration etc, as there is considerable overlap with the syllabus of general studies and that of optional subjects.
However, if at this point you are not completely sure of only appearing for UPSC, and you have interests in other field such as medical/engineering or anything else, what you can do is choose the specific stream, complete 12th and graduation, work in the relative domain for few years to gain experiences and then if you still feel you want to appear for UPSC, then you can go ahead, also it's good to have a back up plan when it comes to UPSC, and if you look at previous year toppers they come from diverse backgrounds of that of medical/engineering/commerce/science etc which only confirms one thing that it's not your stream selection at 12th or graduation level that becomes the deciding factor of you success in an exam like UPSC, instead it's your personal attributes of single minded focus, dedication, perseverance which matters the most for all aspirants.
