Hello there..

>> Am sorry to inform you that Computer Science does not features in the List of Optional Subjects for the Mains exams.
>> Hence,you cannot select it for the Civil Services mains exams.

>> On a personal recommendation,I would ask you to go for some arts subjects such as Public Administration,Indian History,Geography or Political Science.
>> These subjects are particularly very scoring and also form the core of Paper-2 in the Preliminary exams.
>> This will help you prepare for Mains and Prelims simultaneously,saving precious time.
>> Also,the subject Public Administration will help you gain knowledge,at basic level,of the services you so desire to get involve in.

>> However,you are free to choose your optional subjects.
>> Take your time and make call based upon your strengths.

>> Here I have listed below the list of optional subjects allowed for the mains ::

- Agriculture
- Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Science
- Botany
- Chemistry
- Civil Engineering
- Commerce
- Economics
- Electrical Engineering
- Geography
- Geology
- Indian History
- Law
- Management
- Mechanical Engineering
- Medical Science
- Philosophy
- Physics
- Political Science
- Psychology
- Public Administration
- Sociology
- Statistics
- Zoology
- Anthropology

>> However,you must make sure that the subject combination you choose is not a restricted one.
>> I have also stated below the restricted combinations ::

# Political Science & International Relations and Public Administration
# Commerce & Accountancy and Management
# Anthropology and Sociology
# Mathematics and Statistics
# Agriculture and Animal Husbandry & Veterinary Science
# Management and Public Administration
# Two Engineering subjects taken together
