Hello,

To become both an IAS officer and a doctor, you can follow these steps:

1. Pursue MBBS: Start by completing an MBBS degree, which takes about 5.5 years in India. It provides you with the foundational medical knowledge needed to become a doctor.

2. Consider Specialization (Optional): After MBBS, you may choose to specialize, but keep in mind this will add years to your journey.

3. Prepare for UPSC Exam: While in college or after completing MBBS, start preparing for the UPSC Civil Services Examination, a rigorous three-stage process (Prelims, Mains, and Interview) to become an IAS officer.

4. Time Management: Balance medical studies and UPSC preparation by creating a realistic schedule and staying disciplined.

5. Attempt UPSC Exam: After completing MBBS, or alongside if feasible, appear for the UPSC exam.

6. Career Shift: Once selected, you can serve as an IAS officer, using your medical expertise in public health, policymaking, or administration.

This dual role allows you to contribute to society through healthcare and governance.

Hello aspirant, The answer to this question is no. Both of these areas require your complete commitment and dedication. You can not manage both of these together. Also it is not allowed to do any other profession while performing duties as a IAS officer. If you want to practice medical profession then you have to leave your job.

Thank you
