my first choice is geogrphy then which subject i should choose as second optional for IAS prelims and mains exam

The optionals should be chosen based on your interest and knowledge.... chose the one in which you are good at. so, that passing % will be more... ALL THE BEST.

You dont have to choose any optional paper for prelims exam in UPSC CSE 2011 and after according to the new pattern of the examination.
For mains exam you will have to choose two subjects.
Since you have decided to choose Geography as 1st optional subject for mains exam, you should select that subject which is more comfortable and easier to understand according to you and in which you have interest. Make decision wisely.
Good Luck.
