can i leave history subject in ias ????
UPSC is a 3 stage selection process involving Prelims, Mains and Interview which tests your personality test. Prelims has 2 Papers namely General Studies and CSAT.
General Studies has Current Events, History of India and Indian National Movement, Indian and World Geography, Indian Polity and Governance, Economic and Social Development, Environmental Ecology, Biodiversity and Climate Change and General Science.
CSAT has Comprehension, Interpersonal skills including communication skills, Logical Reasoning and Analytical ability, Decision making and problem solving, General Mental Ability, Basic numeracy and Data Interpretation.
So if you look at it National and International History are important topics even in the Prelims. So skipping History might not be a wise decision. You may opt for another Optional subject during Mains but leaving History during Prelims might cost you your qualification for the Mains because at that level, every point matters.
