UPSC Exams-Optional Selection-Frequently Asked questions and Free Counselling

Dear Sir, I am student of IIT Delhi pursuing my B.tech in Civil Engineering. I am bit confused about the subjects for CSE, as people insist not to go with civil engg as a subject....and also to take one subject from arts. I have been good in quizzing and geography at my school.

For IIT students, geography will also be a cake walk. This is scoring and safe also. Your quizzing will definitely help here. Whatever you had studied in the schooling only will help you. But it is little advance and those things are really easy. You have to practice good map reading as it has 120 marks out of 600 in the mains.

What your friends say about civil engineering is true. The success ratio of civil engineering is really poor. The trend is humanity subjects. So select a good humanity subject which will be easy for you. When you study with full potential, humanity subjects are really easy. Need little logic that's all.
