i want to study in university of Hyderabad where only MA integrated political science is offered. should I take for BA Hons in political science in any other university and self study after the completion of ba hons for UPSC or should I take for MA integrated political science in this university.
Hello,
Integrated course in political science offered by University of Hyderabad is for a duration of five years but there is an exit option as well which has been effective from the academic year 2015-2016, hence you can choose to exit after three years of graduation and for that you will be warded graduate degree, and when it comes to preparing for UPSC through self-study, some of the things which you can follow from first year itself is take a print out of the syllabus, and go through it regularly as this will enable you what to study and what to skip, develop reading newspaper on daily basis and start off with NCERTs book for building base though at no point should you neglect your studies, remember that your graduation too is very important, but yes if you get free time then you can do these little things as this will help you in the preparation of exam.
