Hello,

The eligibility criteria to appear for UPSC CSE is passed graduation in any discipline from a recognized university, hence there is no such restrictions of belonging to specific stream, now coming to your question if you're enquiring about BSc Hons Chemistry being useful from the perspective of preparation of the exam, then there is optional paper of UPSC having this subjects, apart from the syllabus of UPSC itself is more inclined towards humanities subjects such as history, geography, economics, polity etc, the portion of science isn't that much, however if you have any other plans for future than appearing for UPSC, you should go ahead with your choice for BSc Chem Hons, the reason being UPSC is highly competitive exam, and it's good to have a back up plan, also you have just passed 12th, and you're still in a phase of figuring out your career plans, it's quite natural if you're not absolutely sure of only appearing for UPSC,

secondly I want to emphasize again that irrespective your stream at 10+2 or graduation level, you can qualify this exam is you have single minded focus, dedication and perseverance, if you look at previous year toppers they come from as diverse backgrounds as engineering, medical, science, commerce, etc, so there is no absolutely no reason why you cannot qualify you give all your efforts in this exam, as I said the attributes which make one successful in this exam are how focused, dedicated, and consistent you are in your efforts, and this holds true for every aspirants.

Dear student,

If we speak broadly then only the president of India can suspend an IAS officer after looking at the case.

But we must know that the central government has no less power, maybe it is not written on paper that it can suspend but central has rights to go through the matter and suggest what to do.

In case the suspension is permanent or more than a year then the central review committe is asked what to do in the case.

Now as you asked for what an IAS officer can be suspended then, it is very simple that law and administration is above anyone, no matter on which post a person is sitting but if someone violates the law, commit crimes then he/she will come under charge and so will happen to an IAS.

I hope this information helps you.

Hi,

If  you belong to Humanities stream, you can begin with reading your own NCERT textbooks in details. The core basic of the UPSC CSE is started by reading the NCERTs to form a strong base. Even if you belong to other streams, at this phase, you can begin with just reading newspaper. It may appear to be simple, but, when you will start reading newspaper in your UPSC preparation, newspaper alone will take 2-3 hours to get the details. Read The Hindu and The Indian Express, slowly you will develop pace and can identify the important topics to be read. It can save your further time. Right now, just focus on your class 11 and 12 studies. If we see, it will be too early to prepare for the exam. UPSC prepares the syllabus accordingly and it will take a maximum of two years to complete the comprehensive syllabus including both Mains and Prelims. So, right now you can focus on your studies and can begin with newspaper reading.

Hello,

There is no such restrictions of belonging to specific stream when it comes to UPSC, as its eligibility criteria states that candidates need to pass graduation in any discipline from a state university, there is not even specific aggregate required in this case, you can apply in the final year also, the age limit is 21 to 32 years for UR, relaxation in terms of age is provided to reserved categories, after choosing MEC group in intermediate you can go for any field graduate degree as per your preference, last year itself one of the topper secured IAS belonging to commerce stream, similarly there are medical, engineering, arts, science graduates to name a few signify the diversity, hence you should pursue graduation in subject of your interest, also if at this moment you are not completely sure of UPSC, it's good to have a back up plan also as this exam is highly competitive, got such extensive syllabus, it takes single minded focus, dedication and perseverance to qualify, once you get into college you can start off by going through syllabus in detailed manner as this will help you to know what to read and what to skip, making a habit of reading newspaper everyday especially editorial, national and international importance news, economy, government scheme etc, go through NCERT first and then move towards other standard books, keep the list minimal, go through previous year paper and mock tests on regular basis to evaluate your preparation level.

Dear Vandita,

I will tell you pros and cons of taking any stream of graduation keeping in  the mind that you have to become an IAS officer.

See, there is no hard and fast rule that you have to choose a particular stream in graduation to be eligible for UPSC, the exam through which you can be an IAS officer. The eligibility for becoming an IAS officer is to have the Bachelor's degree, no matter from which stream it is.

Now as you are from PCB background so if you take Bachelors of Arts thinking that syllabus are more related to UPSC in this stream then, all the things that you studied till 12th will not be used properly and not only this when you will go to take admission in any recognized University to take BA having Science background then they decrease 5% from your result while making merit list for the selection.

I hope that this will help you to choose the stream correctly.

All the every best!!
