You must know the examination pattern then you will have to set a study plan according to it. First of all you will have to give the preliminary exam. It consist of 2 papers. 1. General Studies paper of 150 marks 2. Some optional subject paper of 300 marks Optional subject has to be chosen out of these - Agriculture Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Science Botany Chemistry Civil Engineering Commerce Economics Electrical Engineering Geography Geology Indian History Law Mathematics Mechanical Engineering Medical Science Philosophy Physics Political Science Psychology Public Administration Sociology Statistics Zoology Don't choose subjects like mechanical engineering as it will be very tough to pass that exam Then you will have to give main exam which consist of 9 papers The first 2 papers are of Indian language and English of 300 marks each. These are just qualifying paper. The marks of these paper will not be included for determining the rankings Paper 3 will be of essay of 200 marks.

Yes even MBA pass outs can apply for the IPS exam. You are eligible if your age is less than 30 years. It is a good decision if you have interest in law enforcement field. You need to prepare for both prelims and mains. For this prepare well for the aptitude oriented questions and also the two subjects which you can select from the list provided in UPSC site.

Hi dear...............
The UPSC examination comprises of two successive stages. IPS exam is carried out by the UPSC (Union Public Service Commission) and constitutes two stages: The Preliminary Examination and The Main Examination. Preliminary Exam comprises multiple choice questions and is also a qualifying exam for appearing into second exam. Main Examination which comprises a written exam and an interview. Eligibility for IPS exam :-- You must be 21 years (minimum) and 30 years (maximum) at the time of taking exam. SC/ST/OBC and ex-servicemen are given exemption of 3 to 5 years in maximum age limit. People belonging to general category can appear for IPS exam four times, while OBCs can appear for seven times but no limit has been set for SC/ST. keep in mind, even appearing in just exam is counted as an attempt. The candidates should be a graduate in any stream from a recognize university. Preparation tips for IPS exam Preliminary exam is a qualifying stage. This exam has two papers in which one is optional (means you can choose a subject of your own choice) and other is of General Studies which is a compulsory exam and you have to give importance to both. To get a good command over General Science, it is must that you prepare at least eight subjects of high importance properly. These subjects include Mental Ability, Economy, Political Science, Science, Current Affairs, Geography, History and General Knowledge. The best way to begin your exams preparation in above mentioned subjects is to start with NCERT books of 6th to 12th standard. To keep updated with ‘current affairs’ you will require reading newspapers from at least one year back from the time of appearing for exam. Make notes of all the important events, incidents in the country as well as around the world. Other than books, you also need to prepare from a good atlas for ‘Geography’. For ‘General Knowledge’, you must read ‘Competition Success Review” and collect facts. Also, you can solve question papers of previous years’ preliminaries. For ‘General Studies’ read political and business magazines as much as you can but within limit. For ‘optional subject paper’, the most important thing is that you choose a subject about which you are very much confident. The best way to do is this is to go through the syllabus of that subject and look if you have covered all those topics mentioned in your degree course. Do prepare for both ‘Preliminary’ and ‘Main’ exam very well, as you will not have much time to prepare for ‘Main’ exam after clearing prelims successfully. To prepare for optional subject, get the civil service exam syllabus. Cover all the topics and attempting all the related question papers simultaneously. Exam pattern .....
