Re: Is Economics a safe optional for IAS mains? hello, i am doing graduation (B.A first year) with (economics ,statistics and mathematics) as my subjects. i am confused whether to take economics as optional in IAS mains or not.......most people suggest me to go for geography as students from non-geography backgroud are scoring high in mains with geography as optional subject..........its true that one must select optional in which one has interest..........but still seeing the majority one gets such confusion......please suggest me if my selection of optionals with economics and public administration is appropriate? |

Re: Is Economics a safe optional for IAS mains? Hey please try to complete the question. I can suggest which subject to take as optional if you meant which graduation course have you completed and in which stream. If your a commerce student then its better that you take economics as a optional subject but if your from B.tech stream then its tough for you to compete with the candidates from commerce stream. all the best |

See Electronics is surely a very scoring subject. But I shall suggest you not to go for it. Yes you can choose it if you wish. But there are also some good optional subjects like : * Political Science * Agriculture * Botany * Philosophy * Sociology * Civil * Geography * Geology * Law * Mechanics * Mechanical Science * History * Zoology etc. good luck. |

Re: Is Economics a safe optional for IAS mains? so many people choose economics as it is very interesting but some time choosing that subject which student choose rarely is safe. choose care fully as at least if we choose interesting subject we can read that but if we choose uninteresting we cannot read it even if it is safe. |

Re: Is Economics a safe optional for IAS mains? hi dear, If you are a commerce student then it would be beneficial for you , otherwise you may have to study a lot about this subject from initial stage. Dont think that it is scoring or not, look at previous year toppers , they have took less choosen subjects still they were on top why because they have passion for that. For example : Faesal took urdu literature which i think very less students opt for. Electrical engg is considered low scoring subject, but last year second ranker took this subject and still topped. thanks |

Re: Is Economics a safe optional for IAS mains? This time UPSC pattern is changed and it is called as CSAT which is coming into effect from Civil Services Examination, 2011.and so there is no option subjects... It consits of two paper and each paper of Two hrs.. (Paper 1) (200 marks) consists of Current events. History Geography Indian Polity and governance Economic and social development and General science. It is of purely objective type and qualifying exam... (Paper II) (200 marks) Comprehension Logical reasoning and analytical ability Decision making and problem solving General mental ability Basic numeracy(Class X level) English language comprehension skills (Class X level) It is of purely subjective type and followed by interview.... Based on the overall ranking and your choice of cadre, you will be provided IFS (Indian Foreign Service), IAS or IPS. The higher your rank, the choice is with you. |

Re: Is Economics a safe optional for IAS mains? No, I will not suggest you to take economics as your subjects for the mains. However, if you have studied economics in your +2 and have the aptitude, then there is no harm in taking economics. I will suggest that you go for Political Science. The subject is comparatively easy and im sure you can easily cope up with it. Political science is the easiest subject of the list. Also, if you wish, you can opt for mathematics. The following is a list of the optional subjects which you can choose from: Agriculture Animal Husbandry & Veterinary Science Anthropology Botany Chemistry Civil Engineering Commerce and Accountancy Economics Electrical Engineering Geography Geology History Law Management Mathematics Mechanical Engineering Medical Science Philosophy Physics P o l i t i c a l S c i e n c e a n d I n t e r n a t i o n a l Relations Psychology Public Administration Sociology Statistics Zoology |

Re: Is Economics a safe optional for IAS mains? your question is inappropriate,... no subject is safe for IAS if there was any such subject everyone would choose that subject, and actually all would fail due to very high compitition. so my suggestion... stop choosing with others minds use your own head and decide upon your liking which subject you can do best in and which subject you have your interest in. If you have studied economics a lot like didi your graduation it may be easiers for you. |

Re: Is Economics a safe optional for IAS mains? Safe or unsafe , it all depends on how much you know about that subject and your interest in that. If you are a commerce student then it would be beneficial for you , otherwise you may have to study a lot about this subject from initial stage. Dont think that it is scoring or not, look at previous year toppers , they have took less choosen subjects still they were on top why because they have passion for that. For example : Faesal took urdu literature which i think very less students opt for. Electrical engg is considered low scoring subject, but last year second ranker took this subject and still topped. I think , now you have got enough insight to take your subject. |

Re: Is Economics a safe optional for IAS mains? hi! Every optional is safe if you are an expert. I mean to say that if you have knowledge of a particular subject then you can easily pass any exam in that subject. You should choose a subject as optional in mains on the basis of your interest & knowledge rather than on the basis of whether it is safe or not. Suppose you select a subject which seems to be highly scoring but you have little idea about that subject then it will be difficult to pass in that subject. So my suggestion is that choose a subject in which you are. |
