    Dear Applicant,
    -Sorry but there is no such provision to change your optional subjects for the Mains examination of the Civil Service Exams once you have selected and registered them before the preliminary exams.
    ~Hence,instead of approving your ideas of changing the subjects,I would recommend you to stick to your subjects and prepare for them.
    ~You need not panic as the problem you are facing is a meagre result of nervousness.You'll get over it very soon.
    //I would instead give you some tips to do well//.
    -Improve your writing skills.Try and get rid of your grammatical mistakes,as the mains exams is basically subjective.
    -Practice a lot of model papers and solve the previous year question papers.
    -Make sure you manage your time well and adopt a systematic way of studying.
    -Maintain a positive attitude throughout.
    You will definitely succeed.
    Good Luck!!

    No,you cannot change them once you have opted while filling preliminaries,you need not to panic just take proper guidance from some institute or your teachers on time so that they can short-out any kind of examination PHOBIA if it arises in you (i.e common problem of students through-out any exam due anxiety problem before the examination )

    Hours demand is that once you have selected do prepare for that wihout wasting time to preapare for other subjects.

    Hello friend,

    I am afraid to say you that you can not change your optional subject
    for the Mains examinations once you have registered before the preliminary
    examinations.

    There are 23 optional subjects

    and they are


    1)Agriculture

    2)Animal Husbandry & Vetinary Science

    3)Botany

    4)Chemistry

    5)Civil engineering

    6)commerce

    7)economics

    8)Electrical engineering

    9)Geography

    10)Geology

    11)Indian History

    12)Law

    13)Mathematics

    14)Mechanical engineering

    15)Medical Science

    16) Philosophy

    17)Physics

    18)Political Science

    19) Psychology

    20)Public Administration

    21)Sociology

    22)Statistics

    23)Zoology

    You have to choose one of them very minutely.

    All the best...

    We are not sure about changing the subjects. We think Subjects mentioned in the MAINS FORM will be considered.

    Hi friend!

    The answer to your question is NO.

    Since you've already cleared your Prelims, You better go with the subject that you've picked up.

    I can understand that you're thorough with either of the subjects (one, which you picked up and second, to which subject you want to change).

    Just go with the picked one as of now. In the next attempt be clear towards creating your goal and then create your own path to reach goal.

    If you're still doubt about your goal, how can you create a path? how can you crack civils?

    Be clear towards your goal.

    I wish you all success!

    no friend.
    you can't change the optional subjects.

    before filling the form choose the optional subjects from 25 subjects.
    be clear.
