Hey!

In actuality, class 12th marks don't matter much for UPSC. This is due to the fact that in order to be qualified for the UPSC, you must be a graduate in any discipline. As a result, you must complete graduation. There is no minimum % required for UPSC eligibility in 12th or graduation. The UPSC eligibility requirements are as follows:-

• A bachelor's degree from a recognised university in any discipline is required.
• Age limit(Minimum)- To be eligible for UPSC, you must be at least 21 years old as on August 1of the year in which you fill out the form.
• Age limit(Maximum)- Maximum age limit is 32 years, with a three year relaxation in the upper age limit for OBC and five year relaxation in the SC/ST category.

Hello Bindu,

hope you are doing good.

Generally Optionals like Anthropology, Sociology and Public administration is considered to be having less syllabus compared to all others and it's study material is also easily available.

However, If you have interest in your Graduation subjects then it can also serve as a nice optional subject for you, as most of the topics would have been covered during your graduation.

Hope this helps. All the very best!
