Re: Which subject is right for me in IAS Examination?

TO ALL,

Hi,

HERE, I SEE SO MANY QUERIES ON' CONFUSTION OF CHOOSING THE SUBJECTS FOR UPSC CSE. I HAVE ANSWERED TO MANY WHO NEEDED SPECIFIC SUGGESTION ON SUBJECTS,

ON THE WHOLE, I WOULD LIKE TO SAY THIS,

UPSC CSE EXAMINATION IS LITERALLY A TOUGH EXAMINATION TO CRACK. IF YOU CHOOSE THE WRONG SUBJECT, YOU ARE GONE. ALSO, IF YOU CHOOSE BLINDLY ON SOMEONE'S OPINION, YOU WILL BE LEFT BLIND FOLDED IN THE EXAMINATION.

CSE EXAM SUBJECT CHOOSING ITSELF REQUIRES A CASE STUDY

. SO DONT JUST GO FOR OPINION OF OTHERS.

VIGILE IN WHICH SUBJECT, YOU ARE INTERESTED.
WHICH SUBJECT WILL KEEP YOU AWAKE THROUGH THE PREPARATION.
WHICH SUBJECT WONT BORE YOU WHILE PREPARING.
WHICH SUBJECT WILL ENTERTAIN YOU THE MOST.
WHICH SUBJECT YOU HAVE PRIOR KNOWLEDGE.
WHICH SUBJECT WILL HELP YOU RE-PREPARATION IF LOST ONE ATTEMPT(SHOULD THINK IN ALL ANGLE).

ETC,.

Hope you guys understand.
All the Very Best.

Hi,

Good. You chose one subject. Mech Engg is normally considered a bit tough. But, Dont panic. Why I mentioned that is, To suggest you to choose the other subject which wont be tough and boring for you to read.

Since, you have chosen mechanical engg., i suggest you to choose some subject which is theory based. Like, Public administration or sociolgy, like that.

If you do so, After working with problematic subjects like Mech Engg., It would be appealing to you when you read theoretical subject.

Hope you understand. If you have any other logic. You carry on. Its your decision which will help you.

Good Luck.

Hi,

Again, It is a tough question to answer. Because, It solely depends on your interest.

History is mostly preferred by many saying it is a scoring subject. But it is a very lengthy syllabus and the competing will be heavy.

Mathematics is obviously scoring and will fetch you full marks if correct. But the fact is, You should be highly proficient in mathematics. Many consider this, A tough subject.

Geography, also the same as History.

Sociology, public administration are considered easy but you should have the interest and patience to prepare these subjects.

SO FROM ALL THIS, WHAT I AM TRYING TO SAY IS, CHOOSE THE SUBJECT WHICH HIGHLY ATTRACTS YOU AND GAINS YOUR INTEREST. WHICH WONT BE BORING. CHECK OUT.

Good Luck.

Hi,

Both are considered easy and chosen by many. Many have cleared UPSC CSE Examination taking these two subjects as optional. Though, History is highly preferred comparing to Geography. Make choice based on your interest and be very clear in choosing.

Good Luck.

Hi,

I have answered to a similar question in the same thread and query no #51. You can check that suggestion and consider if you are interested.

There is no such permanent subject. Only general studies, Essay, English, and one regional language paper is considered permanent to all who take UPSC CSE Examination. All other subjects are your choice.

Good Luck.

Hi,

Good. Since you are an agriculture student, You can take Agriculture as a subject for Priliminary Examination. Because the Competing for this subject would be considerably less.

For mains, You can take Agriculture as one subject.

For the other subject, My opinion would be, to take Botany. Solely my opinion, Coz it would be easy for you to prepare as you, an agri student. You can also take any other subject which will loot your interest. Which wont go boring.

Good Luck

Hi,

Yes. You can take the subjects which are considering scoring. But if it is Boring?!!!!!. Gone! right?!!.

Choose the subjects, which to you, is scoring and interesting

. Choose the subjects which gains your atmost interest and will not go boring while preparing.

Hi,

All this three subjects are good and considered the scoring subjects. For history, the race will be heavy. All the other two, Will be chased only by commerce specialised candidates. So choose based on your interest and your proficiency in these subjects.

Kindly respond me @

Hi,

Literally all these three are said to be considered tough. In this three, you can go for mathematics. because, If you are really proficient in mathematics, You can score really high.

About no of attempts,

It is based on category.
For General- 4 attemplts,
For OBC-7
and sc/sc- no restrictions

Good Luck.
