if you are choosing to do ias then your engineering degree will be wasted .so if you are in dilema then it would be better for you to immediately join coaching for that . there you will know the paper pattern and tricks to solve question . they will help to choose your extra subject. in my opinion you should choose the subject according to your interest. and so ias only when you feel that you will not feel any problem.

Hello Friend,

You can appear in UPSC IAS Exam after completing your engineering or when you will be in Final year of the engg. course

The eligibility for IAS Exam is graduation in any discipline and age limit is 21 to 30 years.

For optional subject choose that subject:
1. In which you are interested and is familiar with
2. Easy to understand
3. Which is comfortable for you

My suggestion will that you can choose Public Administration or History or Geography or Political Science. Since you are from science background you can also choose physics or mathematics as optional subjects for Mains Exam.

For your information there will be no exam of optional paper in UPSC IAS Exam 2011 and after 2011.

For details please visit www.upsc.gov.in

Good Luck.

Yes
Graduate in any discipline is eligible to give IAS exam .
Now the pattern of the Exam has changed for the prelims . In prelims earlier candidate has to select optionals subjects but now every candidate has to give Paper-1 & 2 of prelims. All the candidates now will be judged on the basis of common platform in prelims.....

The Mains has the same pattern which was earlier here candidate has to select the optionals ....
you can choose Mathematics, Geography or electircal engineering as a subject for optionals.......
Best of luck .......
for more details refer:- http://www.upsc.gov.in

Yeah definitely you're eligible for CIVILS

you many not get the exact subject relating to your Group

but you can take a relating subject like

mathematics.

as the syllabus will be general one you can try for a different subjects like

geography

history..

public administration

etc..,

select the subjects according to your interest

all the best

i am doing b.tech in c.s.e .I would like to appear for the IAS exam. i am not decided which subjects are best for me.

Yes, IAS is open for every Indian graduate, irrespective of his/her stream of study, with equal opportunity (equally tough - the syllabus is crafted such that no particular stream gets an edge over the other) for all.

You can refer to the prospectus of the UPSC exam for details like examination pattern, choice of subjects.
