Hello Student

First of all you have to take graduation with honours which will be better from social science or political science or economics or English. Completion of graduation you have to take admission in any of the reputed guidance or coaching centre or institution after verifying their activities and success record. If you are a student of Andhra Pradesh then your choice should be better if you get admission in any of the reputed institution for IAS guidance in Hyderabad.

Hope this will help.

Dear aspirant !

Hope you are doing great ! What thing you are asking about ? For an ias officer it is impossible to earn 100 rupees per second . Even how can you think of that . Do you know the salary of ias officer ?

According to the 7th Pay Commission, the basic salary of an IAS officer is Rs 56,100 . In addition to the salary, an IAS officer is also given several other allowances, including Travel Allowance and Dearness Allowance. Reports state that the total salary of an IAS officer is more than Rs 1 lakh per month.

So not possible to earn that much money !

Hope it helps you !

Thank you

Hey aspirant!

I am sure this question must be of supreme importance and tragedy to you tight now. It is a dramatically big decision after all. However, having said all that, there is no answer to this question. There is no degree that guarantees you a rank. The only thing is that you must choose a subject that you can do, that you are good at, and that you are interested in.

All the best for your future pursuits!
