Hi Aspirant,

I assume you are talking about whether the preparations books of UPSC changes every year. Well to answer that I would say that they make slight changes just in printing as per the newer printings of those textbooks. But the syllabus remains same. The UPSC Syllabus may not be changed. More number of Students are preparing for the UPSC Prelims & Mains according to old UPSC Syllabus. If UPSC wants to change the Syllabus , whether it may be in Prelims or Mains, UPSC Should give a Notification according to new changes.

General Knowledge and General Studies information obviously changes everyday. For this, we don’t have a particular syllabus.

Also following are the books to refer for international relations

1)NCERT 12th (Contemporary World Politics)

2)International relations - interests & challenges for Civil Services Exams by deepanshu Singh

Also you can refer to current Affairs through newspapers or digital media.

Hi aspirant,

According to the UPSC eligibility criteria,

• the candidate must be between 21 to 32 years of age.
• the candidate should hold an undergraduate degree from a recognized university. The minimum qualification must be an under graduate degree
• The UG degree could be in any field.
• For UG, you need 10 +2 qualifications

As it requires 10 + 2 higher secondary education, it is not possible for diploma holders to appear for UPSC

hope that helps.

Hi

This is because,

For reference, UPSC eligibility  criteria is provided below:-

*You  must have  a  bachelor's  degree in any, discipline    from a  recognised university .

*Minimum  age  limit :-  you  need to  be at least  21  years  old   to be  eligible.

Hello,

UPSC is oldest public service examination. If you want to be a government officer like IPS, IAS, IFS, IRS you have to clear UPSC examination.

Now you want to know BSC honours is helpful or not. Look any subject is helpful for this examination. Because it's multiple subjects base examination. You have to mathematics, english, history, political science, sociology, general knowledge, current affairs etc. If you complete your graduation without BSC like MBBS or BTech or Bpharm then also you are eligible for UPSC. Because you have to study another way for this examination.

All the best.

Dear Aspirant,

UPSC provides a list of optional subjects. Candidates have to choose one optional for the mains exam. The optional subject has two papers and each paper accounts for 250 marks. The paper for optional subject is descriptive in nature.

There is vast range of subjects you can choose from as your optional subject such as, Agriculture to Zoology to Geography to regional languages such as Hindi, Bengali, Marathi etc.

Candidates must be very cautious while choosing their optional subject, as it can make or break your ultimate score. While choosing make sure you have a good knowledge in the subject. Look at the syllabus for all the subjects, see which ones you can manage to study and retain and make a choice based on it. If you find a particular subject easier than the other prefer that.

Hi,
