Ideally, those who are doing graduation can select their interesting subject as it will help in UPSC Mains also. Mostly, aspirants begin their IAS preparation in June or July. But a proper understanding of the syllabus will help to invest less time in preparation.

How to Start IAS Preparation?

There are two approaches- prelims cum mains approach and prelims approach.

Those who have one year or more, they can schedule for prelims cum mains approach. For example, those who are aiming for next year IAS Exam, and can start to prepare from now onwards. They can invest at least three months for completing their optional subjects and another five months for general studies papers followed by prelims preparation for the rest of five months. Finally, the last five months can be devoted to the revision of mock tests, etc. Keep in mind to be on track with current affairs the whole way throughout your preparation.

The main advantage of this method is that aspirants can get enough time for IAS preparation and revision. Moreover, they can identify their mistakes and sharpen themselves for the final test.

UPSC Prelims Cum Mains Approach

This is an appropriate method for the working force, those who have a limited time span, etc. For instance, as per UPSC Exam Calendar 2024 more than 365 days left for Prelims Exam, so start study from today for prelims cum mains along with current affairs. Having a thorough understanding of the UPSC Syllabus and smart work will ensure you to climb the ladder of UPSC within this short span of time.

Remember, the preliminary level is the toughest part of all exams and once clearing it will enhance your confidence level and shine brightly for the rest of the examination process.

Students should have a clear idea about the UPSC Syllabus to be covered for prelims and mains.

Prelims consist of two papers that carry 200 marks each. Each paper is of 2 hours duration. Candidates should attempt both papers. CSAT is only qualifying paper, aspirants should score 33% or 66 marks. Paper one is going to decide your entry into mains but not going to decide your rank. GS Paper 1 also comprises of 200 marks with a 2-hour duration.

UPSC Prelims General Studies Paper 1 Strategy

  1. Indian History– ancient, medieval, modern. It is beneficial to focus more on ancient and modern history as more questions are triggered here. Study art and culture along with history. Don’t view art and culture as well as history as separate subjects. Refer: How to study Indian History for IAS Examination?
  2. Geography– physical [world], Indian geography, gives more stress on Indian geography. Correlate current events of the Indian landscape along with theory. For example, if some news came about the great northern plains, go thoroughly through great northern plains, its characteristics, significance areas covered and so on.  Also, refer to How to study geography for IAS Exam.
