Hi,
Both are equivalent degrees as such because both are Bachelors degrees. In my opinion, B.A. would be preparing you better for your competitive exams as the college from where you pursue your B.A. Especially, B.A. Honors would be giving you workshops and seminars to attend which would add up to your knowledge. Colleges like LPU, BITS send you to other universities for debates and general knowledge quiz programs where in you automatically are pushed into the much needed aspect of knowledge for your competitive exams, So check a college with care like LPU, BITS, ANNA, MIRANDA etc. to fulfill your high aims.

No, one applies for UPSC civil services exam which itself includes both IAS and IPS. So failing 6 times in IAS exam means you have ended your attempts.

Hi,
First of all you should be well aware of the IAS syllabus which you can have at UPSC portal. You have to daily read at least 2 or 3 newspapers one of which should be an English newspaper. You need to make time table for your study. Regarding books you can consult with NCERT (class 9th-class 12th) for basic knowledge and other can be viewed at UPSC portal.

To clear it in the first attempt will require hardwork along with dedication and goal oriented study. Try to choose the subject in which you are strong in, generally, students choose History, Geography, Economics, Political Science, or Sociology to crack the exam in the first attempt.
