What should I do I have cgpa 6.1 in btech now till sem 3rd year ,1st sem. Currently I'm in 3rd year. So , i should prepare for upsc civil services or UPSC engineering services.

Ans: Lavish,

Read your question carefully and my suggestions below:

1) As of now, fully focus on your BTech (ECE)
2) Involve in Co-curricular Activities (related to your domain) & also in some extra-curricular activities.
3) Try to get as much Certifications as you can from NPTEL, Internshala etc. to be COMPETENT when your Campus Recruitment approaches in your 4th year.
4) Keep updating your LINKEDIN Profile every 3-months to add your qualifications whenever you get any Certifications or other specific achievements.
5) Once you enter into your 4th year, start RESEARCHING about the Companies / Recruiters who visited your College during the last 3-years to know their expectations. Keep your Professional RESUME ready just before your Campus Recruitment.
6) Start PREPARING well for your Campus Recruitment Written Test / Interview / Group Discussion, whichever is applicable.
7) As far as UPSC / Defence / Gate are concerned, it is advisable to make a through Research about it, such as, Number of Vacancies, Eligibility Criteria, Competition Involved, Syllabus / Curriculum, Best Modes of Preparation, Level of Job Satisfaction, Your Family Environment, Availability of Time If You Join any Job & other important / relevant factors. Then decide which Exam will be most suitable for you.
8) If you are fully satisfied with your job, got through your Campus Recruitment, it is ideal to continue with that and keep upgrading your skills.
9) And, it is advisable NOT to quit your job for UPSC / Defence / GATE preparation.
10) Try to manage TIME both for jobs and also to prepare for Competitive Exams.

Hope the above information is adequate for you.

Ans: For UPSC Civil Services, no specific engineering branch is inherently "best." Any engineering discipline is a valid path. However, Civil, Mechanical, and Electrical Engineering are often cited as potentially beneficial due to their overlap with common UPSC Mains optional subjects and general knowledge domains. Ultimately, the best choice depends on individual interests and strengths, as the educational requirement for the UPSC exam is graduation in any stream.
