- Choice of optional subjects depends on your interest.
- You should be confident with the subjects you choose.
- If you belong to Civil/Mechanical/Electrical branch then you have an advantage of choosing Civil Engineering/Mechanical Engineering/Electrical Engineering subject as your one optional subject.
- If you are from other branch then you can choose between Chemistry/Mathematics/Physics.
- You can also choose History/Geography if you are confident to crack at one go.
- For preparation of Chemistry, Mathematics, Physics you can refer NCERT books of class XI & XII which you are already familiar

the most popular subjects taken are geography,history,sociology,political science,pub ad,psychology etc..

dear friend,


choice of optional subjects should be made on the basis of your knowledge and your interest in the subjects. so i would recommend you to choose those optional subjects which belongs to your field.

as you said you are from engineering back ground so you might have good knowledge of Math and Physics subjects.

So according to my viewpoint you must choose Mathematics and Physics as your optional subjects .

if you does not want to choose core subjects like mathematics and Physics then you can choose Arts Subjects like Geography and Indian History as your optional subjects. These are also easy to Understand and easy to crack.


Good Luck....
