Firstly, no degree is accurate for the UPSC aspirant. Studying for a degree course is different and studying for UPSC is different. So if you want to be a Civil Servant then you have to work hard only on the UPSC syllabus. Now Sociology and Political Science both are a fundamental subject and it can also influence your professional career. So if you wish to go for a course then I would recommend you to go for Sociology. Having a knowledge in Sociology can really give you advantage in your professional career. Political Science is also great but from Civil Servants point of view, Sociology can influence you better than Political Science. If you wish to be IFS then Political Science can give you some influence but for most of the cadres I would say Sociology will give you a better foundation to your professional career.

Hello

Nothing seems to be difficult at IGNOU. The only alternative is to first clear the admission exam, which was designed for those who do not have an MPhil or a UGC Net. If you are an MPhil or Net candidate, you will be summoned for an interview in front of the Doctoral Committee and will be evaluated on the basis of your research proposal, which will be followed by an interview. If your proposal is accepted, you will be chosen on merit. IGNOU has a very restricted number of seats.

Hope this help
