You can pursue your graduation in any discipline as per your interest, because candidates who have completed their graduation in any discipline are eligible to apply for IPS exam.

It is quite tough to suggest you the best course as you are well aware of your interest in the subject. So I will suggest you to go with the best you like. Sine there is no limitation on the selection of the optional paper student select sometime the optional other than the discipline of the graduation.


But as the examination is tough so according to my opinion select the optional in which you have best knowledge and try to go through the General Studies preparation from now as it is not going to be prepared easily.
