pdwords Student Expert 17th Aug, 2020
Hello,

There is no such restriction regarding stream choices when it comes to UPSC, as per its eligibility criteria candidates need to pass Bachelor's Degree in any discipline from a recognized university, you need to attain 21 years old and can apply even in final year, however if your question is in reference to optional papers, then there are civil, mechanical and electrical engineering among choices, if you have inclination towards any of these field, you may choose, also you can go through your graduate books while preparing for this optional paper as it's syllabus is nothing short of graduation level.

Hello dear,
The Hindu app is available in the playstore. If you are not able to get it than you may join some telegram channels which provide Hindu newspapers daily.
Or you can simply use The Hindu website from any browser. The website may contain some ads and pop ups.

mujhe 12th ke baad upsc csc uppcsc ki tyiari krni hai kya kru joo ki koi dikkt na hoo

HARSH AGARWAL 15th Aug, 2020

Hey,

I understand your problem. First thing that I can clear is that you can give Upsc after graduation only. You can prepare for it after 12th. You need to look at syllabus thoroughly. I recommend you to look at the interview of top performers. This will be helpful.

Hope you like it.

Hello dear,
For preparation for UPSC, you should do that course on college that it will cover your topics of UPSC. Since UPSC has wide range of topics so it will be better kf you could cover some of them in your college time.
You can do BA program or BA honors in any subject like history or political science which will be very beneficial for you for preparing for UPSC exams.
Thank you

I have did bsc and I want choose optional subject for upsc .which subject will right for me?

priyaankasarkar Student Expert 14th Aug, 2020

You haven't mentioned in which subjects have you done your B.Sc in. Ideally, 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.

From now on, you need to study only for 1 Optional subject instead of 2. So you can take up any one of the subjects that you have studied in your B.Sc. Alternatively if you can help us with the subjects you have studied, we can help you pick the Optional subject. Optional subject should be chosen based on your interest. You should be able to get the material handy and also it should have btter scope in case things with UPSC dont work. So please do help us with the subjects you studied in your B.Sc and we shall help you accordingly.

i am in class 10th how can i start to learn upsc exams

Vaishali Sharma 13th Aug, 2020
Hello dear,
Since you are in just 10th class, you have enough
time to prepare for UPSC exams.
If you have decided to go for these exams then you should complete full NCERT syllabus from class 6th to 10th of Social science. This will help you a lot later. I would recommend you to only focus on this now.
Hope it helps
Thank you
