    Hello,

    dear according to me you should choose psychology optional subjects for civil bcoz this subjects you can easily covered for exam. And if you choose math subjects for civil for that you will have to do very work hard with more efforts.


    Thanks

    Dear if you are preparing for civil services and wants to make your career as to become an IAS officer in India then you are on the very good way and if you are hard + smart worker and dedicated to your study only then no one may stop you to become an IAS officer but you will have to stay on your way and face various problems for your study but do not think about to leave the study if you get failed once in this exam and be prepared for the next chance and get qualified

    Dear if you wants to choose Mathematics and Psychology as your optional subjects for mains exam then you have selected the good combination but dear the question is - if you have enough and in depth knowledge about both of the subjects and you may face these subjects in any condition then you must choose because without having good command over any one subject in the mains exam the candidate may suffer from the defeat which is not acceptable for a candidate who prepare hard for this exam and if you have completed your bachelor's degree with any one of these subjects and interested then you may choose and if you have insufficiency of knowledge about any one of these both then you will have to prepare hard for that subject and get the command over that then you should enter in the ground of competition.
