is maths is neccesary for ias

It all depends on individual .... preparation time for ias.
But i think one yr is enough for this. Make one of your option subject which u have studied in bcom.
And other u can choose keeping in mind your interest in that subject.

HI
I'm interested in taking geology and geography for the Civil Service Examination, though I don't have graduation level background of either of them as I am a medical student. I'm doing so due to my interest in them. Will anyone of you let me know is there any good coaching institute in Delhi or any other place in India. Though I have heard of "the skylight academy" Delhi for providing coaching in geology optional but don't how good it is.

how to prepare ias exam after the bba

dear friend,

the hard and smart work is the key to success in these top exams.
as you have scored 90% in 12th its nice thing.

ias is the top exam of our country.

one should prepare very hard to get success in it.
concept clearance and the knowledge about the current affairs is the key thing to get good score.

also the personality development is needed for the last step that is interview .
specially body language is more important part in the interviews.

as you are in the final year of the graduation you may start preparation for ias exam.
you can attempt ias exam in the final of graduation too.

It is good to know that you want to appear for Civil Service Exam and be an IAS officer.
Well first of all, as rightly said by above wanting to appear is one thing and then getting a good result is another. You really have to work very very hard as i know many people who have been working very hard but yet have not succeeded in their goal. I think it is the right time for you start your preparations. Join an institute offering coaching for the same, as they can give you very good guidance which you cant get on your own. Go through the previous years papers if available to you so that you may get an idea of what kind of questions may come. If possible, if you know that any IAS officer, then stay in touch with him, he may provide you the guidelines of how he prepared for the same.

Well for main, you may select economics, as people with economics have a strong background and knowledge and get selected better.

Good Luck.!

There is no fixed duration for preparation of IAS. It depends on the candidate's potential to crack civil services exam. Some candidates clear the exam in one attempt with a few months prepration while others take a no. of attempts with years of prepration. So, it all depends on your knowledge, ability & hard work. Generally 1 year preparation is sufficient.

If you are serious about making your career in civil services then it is the right time to start studying.

For mains choose the subject over which you have good command.
