Your age should be between 21-30 years and relaxation in upper age as per government guidelines that would be provided to reserved category candidates as per government guidelines that is 5 years for SC/ST and 3 years for OBCs

You should not worry about your qualification because science stream is helpful in preparing for IAS examination because there are some certain topics in examination included from science stream as - General Science and Technology, Environmental Science and Ecology etc. so this may be profitable while preparing for this examination so you should concentrate over the preparation of this examination and focus on Indian Civil Service Preliminary Examination 2014

Dear Aspirant

The minimum educational qualifications set up by UPSC for appearing in civil service examination is graduation from any recognised university in any discipline and you are doing M.Sc so you are qualified from educational point of view and one more thing please keep in mind the age limit hope you have not crossed the maximum age limits of 30 years however it is relaxed by 3 and 5 yrs for OBC and SC/ ST respectively.

See it doesn't matter from whatever streams you have done study.The main thing that you have knowledge and you want to serve for your country by becoming an officers in Central government.It is very good thing.You need to work hard and prepare well as UPSC doesn't provide any optional paper from Gnemoic Science. But your dedication and work done will help you later

All the best
