Is there any chance to prepare for IAS after completing intermediate bipc without joining in any bsc courses?
Dear Student ,
Here is the eligibility criteria for appearing in UPSC CSE exam :
- You will be eligible to appear for UPSC CSE exam only if
- You have passed your graduation from any field and
- Age limit should be between 21 to 32 years
So, it will be ok if you are from bipc stream , as in graduation you can choose your preferred subject and it will not affect your eligibility . Just try to score good .
As of now ,you are not eligible for UPSC as you are in intermediate level. So, I recommend you to study hard for graduation as it is mandatory for UPSC .

Hope this helps !
Hi
