STRATEGY

Abraham Lincoln once said “Be sure you put your feet in the right place, then standfirm.”

Step 1: Important Decisions

1. What is required for success?

2. When to start the preparation?

Start preparation atleast 1 year prior to the exam.

If you are going to prepare immediately after graduation, then don’t wastetime, start immediately after your final exam.

If you are going to study while working, start preparation in June/July. Don’tdelay to start, otherwise you will experience time crunch later.

If you are preparing during graduation, generalized plan cannot be suggested,so discuss personally with us to evolve an individual plan.


3. How to start preparation?

4. How to select the optional subject?Rather than selecting an optional without having knowledge of other subjects or withoutknowing your own writing and presentation styles and thinking patterns, it is better to delay thisdecision. Every subject has its own demand (i.e. thinking pattern, writing style, presentationtechniques etc.). Your personality should suit to it.While preparing for GS Mains, you will be also preparing for History, Geography, Anthropology,Public Administration, Political Science, Sociology etc. It will help you in deciding your interest ina particular optional subject properly. It will prove more informed and rational decisionafterwards.Following are some basic criteria:

Analysis ofprevious year

question papers

Understanding ofSyllabus

Reading of basicstudy material

Start writing somedemo answers


5. How to manage other examinations like MPSC (state services exam) along with UPSC?At the beginning, it is better to concentrate on UPSC alone as it will cover major portion of othersimilar exams. You can dedicatedly prepare for them for some time prior to exam datesdepending upon time table. (unfortunately this keep changing every year)

6. Can I prepare while working or pursuing graduation?Yes you can…. You need to be mentally very strong and need to manage your time optimally forthe whole year to manage everything. We conduct weekend batches for these students. We areproud to share that we have many selections from this batch…. Gaurav Singh Sogarwal (IAS, AIR46), Rajat Bansal (IPS), Anshu Varma (IRAS), Devraju Shiva (IAS), etc.

Step 2: FAQs about Synergy
