Assuming you are an IAS applicant, you can graduate in any of the subjects you like. English distinction is a decent choice provided that you have a profound interest in writing and appreciate understanding books, shows, and sonnets. As you should be realizing that scoring marks in dialects are troublesome.

So English distinctions would help you during the hour of composing answers and papers and during the hour of your interview. You can't relate English distinctions with Civil administrations. Both are various things.

B.A in English writing will assist you with having great English relational abilities, understanding abilities, having a lot of word stocks, and will assist you with becoming brilliant. Besides, there is an English paper in Civil Service Examination I presume. It'll assist you with accomplishing something useful in that paper.

On the off chance that you take up English as Hon's, you need to choose 2 or 3 general courses too. Like Political Science, History, Economics, Geography, and so forth. It'll help you a great deal in the Examination.

B.A. English Literature is as great for UPSC as some other sort of graduation. Everything relies upon your own decisions and preferences about the subjects.

The very best for your excursion into Civil Services.
