UPSC has already announced dates for IAS Exams to be conducted in 2019. So far no change of any kind has been reported in exam pattern, syllabus or age. Current age limit for unreserved category student is 32 years and the maximum number of attempts is 6.

Following are IAS Exam Dates for 2019

  • Preliminary Exam is scheduled to be conducted on  2 June 2019 (Sunday).
  • IAS Mains Exam will start from 20 September 2019 (for five days).
This is now high time to start serious preparation in case you are aspiring to become an IAS officer this through 2019 exam as only Eight months are left for Preliminary exams (October to May).

Don't postpone your preparation for next year because there will never be a perfect time to start preparing. IAS exam dates are eight months ahead and trust me eight months are not too less time to prepare for Preliminary exams.

Don't try to acquire all the knowledge of the universe while preparing, build a smart study strategy. Use your time smartly and read from authentic sources. 

Don't do all day long in-depth research on one particular topic, stick to the schedule as planned.

Self-evaluation is something you must not ignore. Focus on areas of your weakness.

Revision is key to success - follow 20-80 Rule: Read new things for 20 percent of the available time and revise for rest of 80 percent available time.

Geography and Public Administration as Optional Subject

In my opinion, if you are starting the preparation of IAS Exam and still confused about optional papers don't opt either Geography or Public Administration. These papers are not high scoring papers in general; if you look at marks obtained by candidates in these two papers you won't find it worth the effort they put in while preparing. The number of guys opting these two papers are highest, and because of this bar is getting higher every year. For example, even after getting selected once for IRS with Public Administration, last year's topper Anudeep changed his optional paper in his attempt. I am not saying you must not choose these papers. In fact, you must opt any of it in case you like a lot, or you have some academic background related to any of these. But if you are equally bad in all the papers don't go for these two. Find a better alternative.
