    Mathematics Knowledge is Little bit Important to face the IAS Entrance Examination..

    So, If you having Little bit Knowledge in Mathematics subject then you become IAS Officer ..

    So, try go coaching classes and Develop your Mathematics Knowledge skill ..

    Yes you can become IAS officer without special knowlegde in Maths but what you need is basic knowledge in maths i.e till class 10th and for the optionals it is not needed that you take maths as optional subject.There are no. of other subjects for the option which don't need you to be speciailize in maths..


    so stop worrying and go for the exam..

    my dear, for IAS Exam , you must have knowledge level upto 10 to 12 std and some logical mathematical knowledge.but ln IAS exam there are no asked master level questions in maths. so IAS OFFICER must have basic concepts of maths.

    Yes you can become an IAS Officer without any special knowlege of Maths.
    The UPSC Civil Services Exam(CSE) is conducted in 3 stages :
    -Prelims/CSAT Exam
    -Mains Exams
    -Interviews
    You need only BASIC knowledge of maths for clearing the CSE Exams.In the prelims exams and mains exams you need to face some
    questions of Maths in the General Studies paper.CSAT consists of 2 Papers of general studies of multiple choice objective type questions.
    It is mandatory to appear and clear both the Papers of General Studies in the CSAT Exams.In the Mains exams Paper IV & V are of General Studies.
    The general studies paper will comprise of questions which a well educated person can solve easily without any specialised study.
    Generally the standard & nature questions in the CSE are from X-XII level.There are questions on general mental ability
    and Basic numeracy.The questions are such as to test the
    general awareness of variety of subjects & not only maths.

    So donot worry,with a bit of hard work esp. maths and proper preparations one can crack the CSE.

    I am attaching the UPSC CSE 2012 Exam notification for details on syllabus & refrence.
