    Dear Aspirant

    Yes their is some similarity between the gs of

    The pcs and the IAS Exam but not as the exact same

    As the gs level of the IAS Exam is much higher then as compare

    To the pcs exam as you can judge your self as the Ias

    Exam is highest rank of the country and the civil services

    Exam is the highest difficult exam of the country

    As like some topics are same like indian history

    And the current affairs and indian economy and geography

    But their is one thing the syllabus is almost same

    As the level of the questions increases as of from

    The pcs exam to the cse exam for the Ias

    But one thing if you have prepared for the IAS Exam

    Then for the pcs Gs subject you will be prepared automatically

    Best of luck

    The general studies syllabus
    current events of national and international importance. History of India and Indian National Movement.
    Indian and World Geography - Physical, Social, Economic Geography of India and the World.
    Indian Polity and Governance - Constitution, Political System, Panchayati Raj, Public Policy, Rights Issues, etc.
    Economic and Social Development -Sustainable Development, Poverty, Inclusion, Demographics, Social Sector initiatives, etc.
    General issues on Environmental Ecology, Bio-diversity and Climate Change - that do not require subject specialisation
    General Science.
    But the way questions are asked is different.
    as example, UPSC focusses more on national level in Indian national movement. But suppose if you are writing MPSC exam, then questions will be on Madhyapradesh's role in freedom movement.
    in some states such as tamilnadu, questions on tamil literature are also asked in GS.
    while UPSC asks current affaira at national level, for PCS exam you have to focus more on state level news.
    Thus syllabus is same, but the way you have to prepare is different.
