I'm in class 11th now ... I want to become an IAS officer... which stream should I choose and can I prepare for it from now.
Hi,
You can choose any stream of your choice based on your interest in your 10+2 and graduation, this is because to be eligible for UPSC or the IAS examination there is no compulsion to be a graduate in a particular subject, all you need to be eligible is that you should be a graduate in any discipline
So you can choose any stream of your interest, but yes if you are interested in Arts then choosing Arts or the humanities as your stream can be really helpful for your UPSC or the IAS examination, this is because in Arts you will be learning subjects like history , polity etc which are a part of the UPSC syllabus so it will help you in your upsc examination.
Now that you are in class 11 , it is not the right time to start your preparation for UPSC , for now you should focus on your class 11th and then 12th board examination.
You may start your preparation for UPSC while pursuing graduation.
Thankyou
