NEW Inclusions:
Often aspirants jump into preparation without understanding the demand of the exam. If you are to Clear this Exam, you need to understand the Core Philosophy of UPSC, the demands of CSE, penetrate into the minds of UPSC paper setters and be abreast of the recent trends of this Exam.
The surest and fastest way of doing this is to solve the Previous Year UPSC Question papers religiously.
To make students realize the importance of solving and analysing the Previous Year UPSC Question papers, we will be giving Previous Year UPSC Question papers as tests on every Sunday starting from 6th June 2021. We will also be uploading the discussion videos of these papers which majorly intends to help you analyse the paper and help you learn tricks to solve the questions.
We shall also be giving you a few sessions exclusively on Strategy & Tips to Solve MCQs & How to follow the Prelims Test Series for maximising efficiency.
Preliminary Round, the very first round of the Civil Services Examination filters out a huge chunk of aspirants posing a myriad of challenges to both freshers as well as veterans.
However, focusing exclusively on what could have led to those few thousands of aspirants making it successfully to the next round of UPSC exam gives us a clearer picture of the true demand of the Exam and our exact approach towards it.
UPSC has ensured a constant change in the dynamics of the exam year after year. So, ideally, following the traditional way of reading books and solving a few MCQs is no more a success-guaranteed strategy to clear the Exam. What’s most important in today’s times is to Prepare yourself thoroughly for the uncertainty that can be faced in this examination.
Practice-Assessment-Learning is the only tried & tested method to tackle this uncertainty in the Prelims Exam with ultimate grit & confidence.
Those deserving candidates who made it to the list are the one who have understood the intricate rules of the game and applied the same to perfection!
Have UPSC Question Papers genuinely become so erratic that Only Luck can save students or Is it just that students do not PREPARE themselves adequately to face the exam?
We believe it is the latter. At least for the last 4-5 years, the Question paper hasn’t changed its essential flair – it may have become slightly lengthier with the difficulty level being raised. But, as far as certain subject-areas are concerned, from which questions have been asked year after year, they haven’t changed, and they will NOT change as well since these are the emerging areas that are of significant interest to a budding bureaucrat. UPSC understands this and it is for two reasons it makes such highly unconventional papers:
- The changing National and Global priorities, for e.g., automation, ecological degradation, heightened global cooperation that are becoming increasingly relevant to administration
- Need to make the exam a fair play for veterans and freshers alike since UPSC favours the entry of freshers and young people in administration
What are the probable mistakes most aspirants repeat every year and end up being out of the race?
Following traditional Strategy of:
- Sticking to Basic books + Reference Books – which is very much appreciated
- Build Awareness: Only read Newspapers and Current affairs material published by coaching institutes cover to cover
- Unplanned revision: Rush to solve mock tests and complete 5-6 tests in the last month towards UPSC Prelims
Given the changing pattern, it is not a surprise that the final paper barely contains 40-45 questions from the above and most aspirants do not score up to the mark. They are left wanting as to what else could they have done to not face this situation. Why does this happen despite all the hard work? It is because some CRITICAL areas (like Statistics & Techniques in Agriculture, Statistics in Economy, Emerging areas of Environment & Technology etc.) are left out from preparation either out of ignorance, or out of poor planning.
What Aspirants Should do?
Given the changing nature of the exam, and the increasing weightage of critical portions, here is what you should do:
Follow a dynamic strategy:
- Build Fundamentals: Read NCERT/Standard books
- Build Awareness: Read the Hindu/IE and current affairs material
- Build Knowledge base: Religiously attend a good test series year-round to add significantly to knowledge base and sharpen your preparation
- REVISION
So, here comes the all-important Question of Why do you need a Test Series?
Test Series is a safe bet in preparation for various reasons:
- Follow a Good Year-long Schedule: As an IAS aspirant you are not preparing for an ordinary exam. It requires a disciplined preparation. Regularity & Consistency is going to be a key for your progress. Schedules help you hold yourself accountable, stay calm and composed (EI!), achieve milestones and eventually accomplish your goal.
- You understand Gradualism is the name of the game with every test you attend.
- BUILD & IMPROVE YOUR SKILLS: Nowadays Exam papers are more inclined towards testing your common sense through tricky, subjective and vague questions. Reading books and ready-made materials will give you lots of knowledge, but they will never give the skills necessary to clear this exam.
To cultivate new skills and improve certain aspects you must have an integrated approach where you not only study, but also put to rigorous test what you study on a regular basis.
- Limiting your sources and learning more from the MCQs: Given the limited time with an aspirant, it is more than difficult to identify the Critical areas and cover all these areas with full confidence from varied sources. This is where Learning from MCQs comes into picture. You can prepare on these areas which will be predicted and covered in advance in the test series and equip yourself to apply techniques to eliminate the right answers with your extensive knowledge/experience.
- Regular tests with huge student base give you a fair idea of the fierce competition around.

When should you join Test Series?
You must join test series programs from day one to prepare effectively for CSE-2022. Starting early gives you sufficient time to improve at your own pace – slowly but steadily. Starting early gives you time to revise all tests multiple times and remember lots of stuff for Prelims as well as for Mains-2021.
We have noticed that those who start early and stay consistent will go on to clear this exam fast (within 1-2 attempts). In worst case scenarios many of the early starters at least write Mains in their first attempts, sometimes reaching the interview stage as well (if they finish Optional properly before prelims). Those who resort to solving tests in the end – just before prelims – find it difficult to clear this exam as it’s too much to digest at that moment. Moreover most aspirants panic because of the huge amount of materials that pile up by then.
