Frequently Asked Questions

It depends upon the profile of the student, if a student is Graduate or in final year of Graduation then one year is sufficient to prepare for the IAS examination but this requires complete sincerity along with a strategy to accommodate all the relevant topics in your schedule. To clear the civil services examination one should have clarity about the syllabus, familiarity with the pattern, timely Optional preparation, and most importantly revision. Accommodating all this in one’s schedule requires persistent efforts but if a student has just completed his/her 12th or in 1st or 2nd year of Graduation then it will be better to go for 2 year or 3 year courses. We are here to guide you about all these.

UPSC has given a choice of attempting the examination in both English as well as Hindi medium, so there cannot be any bias based upon this. There are so many success stories of candidates with Hindi Medium scoring top ranks. It’s the content, analysis, logical conclusions in the candidate’s answers that make a difference, not the medium. A Hindi medium candidate has equal chances of success as his/ her English counterpart.

Since the Civil Services Examination has an extensive syllabus and requires rigorous practice, an early start will certainly be an advantage! In a 2/3 years’ course which runs parallel to your graduation, a candidate can build a solid conceptual foundation of all GS concepts along with the special focus on NCERTs in the first year. Individual mentorship with evaluation sessions are instrumental in chalking out a complete prep strategy under expert supervision. The second-year predominantly focuses on Essay Writing and theme-based approach to the GS subjects. The third-year consolidates upon all the covered dimensions and is packed with extensive Mock Tests, evaluations, Optional subject preparation, and the Pre-Special Course.
