Hi Aspirant,

In order to become an IAS Officer, you must apply for CSE exam conducted by the UPSC.You must also get selected in the preeliminary rounds in order to get selected for training like these three rounds(preliminary, mains and interview).You cant become an IAS Officer right after 12 you need to prepare for the exams too.

Hope it helps!

The salary of the IAS officer is entirely dependent on how much promotions he/she get during the tenure of his/her service. So telling the final salary is unpredictable. Now in the beginning , after joining the service an IAS is Rs.56,100 (DA+TA+HRA are extra & depends on the category of the place where posted).

Now when the IAS officer becomes Additional Magistrate after 5 - 8 years of service then the salary becomes Rs.67,700 (DA+TA+HRA are extra & depends on the category of the place where posted).

Now when the IAS officer becomes District Magistrate after 9-12 years of service then the salary becomes Rs.78,800 (DA+TA+HRA are extra & depends on the category of the place where posted).

*On further promotions may occur depending on the promotions and the tenure of the service. If the officer have a service period of 37+ years then he/she can get a salary of Rs. 2,50,000 being the Central Cabinet Secretary of India. This is the highest post that can be achieved as an IAS.

** All the figures I have provided are monthly salaries and have been collected as per internet research.

I hope this answer helps. All the very best for your future endeavors!

Hi

Your profile suggest that you are in class 10th right now .

So, I am guessing that you are asking about the stream you should take after your 10th for 10+2.

You can choose any of science ,commerce or arts stream based on your interest after your 10th for your 10 +2 and then for graduation if you want to become an IAS officer.

This is because,

to become an IAS officer you need to clear UPSC civil services examination and to be eligible for UPSC  examination there is no compulsion to have done 10+2 in a particular stream , also there's no compulsion to be a graduate in a particular subject, all you need to be eligible is that you should be a graduate in any discipline , so you are free to do 10+2 and graduation in any subject.

But yes,

choosing Arts or the humanities in your 10+2 and graduation can be really helpful for your UPSC  examination, this is because in Arts you will be learning subjects like history , polity etc which are a part of the UPSC syllabus so it will help you in your upsc examination.

To help you further here's a brief of your UPSC exam

UPSC civil services examination has 3 stages listed below :-

*prelims exam :- it is objective paper and is of qualifying nature , so you just  need to at least qualify it to be eligible for mains examination, the score /marks obtained by you in your prelims examination is not added up or used in your final merit. Your prelims exam consist of 2 papers: -

-) general studies 1

-) general studies II ( csat )

You get 2 hours for each paper

*Mains exam. :- it is descriptive /written examination . There are a total of 9 papers  which are listed below:-

-) compulsory indian language.

-) english

-) essay

-) general studies I

-) general studies II

-) general studies III

-) general studies IV

-) optional I

-) optional II

The compulsory indian language and english are qualifying in nature . You just need to qualify them. The marks obtained by you in these two papers will not be counted towards merit list.

*Interview :- After qualifying mains, you have to go through interview round, and it is more of test of your personality rather than knowledge.

So, if you manage to sail through all the three stages  then congratulations you can become an ias  officer depending upon  rank obtained by you in UPSC civil services examination ,your preference of services and your category .

Hi,

In college you need not put much pressure on yourself. Enjoy the college life, and study the course you are enrolled into. Side by side you can pick up subjects on weekends or whenever you get time. Pick the subjects you are not fully aware of maybe history, maybe civics. Study side by side. Do this for the first two years, in 3rd year you can look for weekend IAS coaching, if available. Study there, and participate in test series. Through this, by the time you graduate you will be ready to give your UPSC exam.

Hello,

If you're wholly focused on becoming IAS then you should choose humanities stream, as this will help you in your preparation part in the sense you will already be acquainted with subjects such as history, geography, political science, economics etc, as all these are part of UPSC syllabus for GS paper as well as optional and in future if you choose to do graduation in any of the aforementioned subjects, then your subject choice will be aligned with your preparation process, however if you have inclination towards any other career choice, you can go ahead with that also, in general there is no restriction to belong to any stream for upsc exam, candidates from any discipline can appear and diverse backgrounds candidates qualify these exams such as engineering, medical, commerce etc, so in case you want to have a back plan if you're not completely sure at this moment, you can choose it, and later on you can appear for upsc.
