Hello Anshika,

You can go with Bsc general if you want to apply for UPSC but First you can Check your eligibility on UPSC Official Portal and Decide about this.

Hello Anshika , There is no specialization required to appear in UPSC. UPSC is a three stage selection process which includes Pre, Mains and interview.

A Bachelor's degree BSc is generally considered an ordinary pass degree and BSc Hons is looked upon as an extraordinary degree. BSc Hons is supposed to have a heavier syllabus than BSc

So it totally depends upon you to choose the course according to your interest.
