WBCS refers to West Bengal Civil Services and same examination is held by West Bengal Public Service Commission for recruitment at executive and other comparative posts.

As far as you are concerned about the validity of your B.Sc Zoology Honors degree from IGNOU ( Indian Gandhi National Open University ) for appearing in WBCS examination then for that you must not worry as the degree by IGNOU is recognized for any PCS examination and is treated equivalent to a regular mode degree as IGNOU is one of the Central university.
