Respected Sir/Mam

Madhuri Dave

yes u can choose in optional paper
all the best

obviously there is an optional subject while written exam in upsc so you may opt this one of them/////////
thanks

yes you can select any one of the management subject but it will be better if you select the subjects from which you are graduating because it will be easier for you to score in it more marks.
but if you don't have management subject in your graduation then you should go for coaching .

ya sure you can select management subjects in main exam because it is quite easy and more useful if you passed the exam and it will be a guide line to you to implement as IAS officer in taking management decisions

yes, u can select the management subject as a paper. but it is too difficult to deal with both the papers

hello madhuri,

i didnt understand one thing, how come you could select subjects in prelims, as according to new pattern you have to attempt general studies and CSAT paper in prelims

Yeah of course you have the chance to select like that

Public administration is best for you

and regarding selections of optionals you should give the max importance to your interest because you have to spend a lot of time in studying your selected subjects if you don't have interest in what you have selected then

it will become mere waste in ..you will be suffered with boredom so don't listen anyone's suggestion go through the syllabus and topics of each and every optional

select the subject in which you are most attracted and have a 80% interested topics in the syllabus

this is how you have to select the optionals

this should be your target and you have to rock the preparation time interestingly not boringly

so if you are interested then select that if every one says even it is the toughest one ..

this is all the opinion of my friends who are preparing for the same

Take the guidance of successful and unsuccessful candidates

Hi Friends,
I am totally confused about selection of my subjects for UPSC (Mains) 2012. Pl. Guide me...
I am an MBA and will be appearing for exam in 2012. Management seems to be my forte as majority of the topics are already read...but there are topics in which I am totally new. Also, I don't have much Idea about the coaching institutes for management in Delhi or Complete study material for management.

Apart from that....what second subject I should choose....options I have ..1....History ( ..But I don't rate my memory too good)..2..English (Lit.)..(But I don't have very polised style of writing//also, choosing this option could be beneficial in preparing compulsory subjects)..3...Public Administration ( Totally new subject for me//Also, not a valid combination with management)..4...Sociology..(completely new subject for me...)...5....Economics ..( Partly new....syllabus...seems very lengthy) ...

Pl. guide my way out of this dilemma..
Regards,
Shantanu
