[UPSC Webinar] By Nishith Sir, Faculty, Samachar Manthan | Current Affairs: What Not To Study for UPSC 2025 | How Should Beginners Tackle Extensive Current Affairs? | Join on 19th December at 7 PM
Register for the session on UPSC Current Affairs preparation plan and strategy
Read about UPSC Current Affairs Masterclass
Many aspirants fail to address specific aspects of questions, due to lack of Mains ready content. For example, in the 2023 question on oil pollution’s impact on India, despite preparing generic points, candidates overlooked localized examples like Tamil Nadu’s 2022 oil spill. To develop mature content, aspirants must avoid five forms of “clutter”:
[1] Excessive content
[2] Random prioritisation
[3] Disconnected preparation
[4] Information overload
[5] superficial understanding
Addressing these issues requires clear strategies, comprehensively tracing relevant news items, and integrating specific, actionable examples rather than vague or generic points.
The upcoming webinar, by Nishith Sir, aims to help aspirants refine their preparation for current affairs by addressing these forms of clutter and demonstrating content development through Newspapers. Get actionable insights for converting raw information into nuanced, exam-oriented content, offering a preview of this transformational approach through an immersion session.
It will be a 45 minute webinar, post which we will open up the floor for all kinds of queries which a beginner must have. No questions are taboo and we’ll be patiently solving all your doubts.

Enrollment Open: 1.5-Year Course December Batch UAP-2026 | Connect with Mentor Now
The Ultimate Assessment Program to ace UPSC CSE.
Trusted and Endorsed by AIR 2, Animesh Pradhan (First Attempt, 473 in GS Mains & 133 in Essay).“ I did my own research and made a conscious call to the Civilsdaily team to enroll in the UAP Mentorship Program. Civilsdaily is the first platform to bring ‘Mentorship Led Prep’ for UPSC CSE. So I knew they must be good at it. I knew I didn’t want any typical or conventional help. I needed something that would help me crack the exam in the minimum number of attempts, A path of least resistance. My mentor Ranadhir Sir ensured that.
UAP Mentorship takes you from a basic to an exceedingly advanced level of preparation in a few months. All of my prep was online and with a job. I opted for UAP because first, I needed accountability & second integrated plan, mock tests and assessments to measure progress. These are the pillars of the UAP program. I didn’t have much time and to make best use of my time I enrolled in UAP mentorship which is a wonderful program. If I could do it, I am sure this program can deliver for you, too.”
– ANIMESH PRADHAN, AIR 2 Working Professional FIRST ATTEMPT, UPSC 2023
Schedule a 1-1 call with Civilsdaily’s Mentor for focused UPSC Prep
Are you a UPSC CSE 2026 aspirant looking for the right mentorship to guide your preparation? The Civil Services Examination is one of the toughest competitive exams in the country, requiring not just hard work but also strategic preparation and timely guidance. Civilsdaily’s 1.5-Year Mentorship Program is meticulously designed to provide you with all the support, resources, and direction you need to crack this exam with confidence.
What You Need to Crack UPSC-CSE in 1 Attempt
To succeed in UPSC-CSE in a single attempt, it’s essential to have a well-structured, strategic approach. Here’s a breakdown of the key program inclusions that will help you achieve that:
- Goal Setting: The Foundation of Preparation Every month, you’ll have a clear timeline of what needs to be covered and by when. This ensures consistent progress, avoids burnout, and keeps you on the right track throughout your preparation.
- Assessment-Based Approach A comprehensive strategy that focuses on covering the entire syllabus in the shortest time possible, while still allowing room for multiple revisions. This approach ensures you stay on top of every subject while reinforcing your understanding.
- Concise & Comprehensive Notes Access to crisp, ranker-recommended notes on relevant micro themes, based on trends from previous years’ questions (PYQs). These notes will help you focus on high-priority topics without getting overwhelmed.
- Practical & Effective Revision Strategy A tailored revision plan focused on one goal: qualifying both Prelims and Mains. This strategy ensures you’re not just learning but retaining information effectively for the exams.
- Mastering the Theme & Demand of Mains Questions Understand how to approach Mains questions with the right “Theme-Demand” analysis. Build a ready reference of “Intro-Body-Conclusion” structures for repeated themes, helping you develop muscle memory for answering questions efficiently.
- Sharp Feedback from Mentors Consistent, detailed feedback on every mock test you attempt for Prelims and Mains. The goal is to make all your mistakes during the mocks, so you go into the final exam fully prepared and confident.
By mastering these elements, you’ll build the skills, mindset, and preparation necessary to clear UPSC-CSE in one attempt.

Secondly, Let’s Understand Why Traditional Methods Fall Short
Relying solely on traditional methods attending 1:many classes, reading model answers, and taking a few mock tests-often creates the illusion that this is the core of Prelims and Mains preparation. In reality, these approaches make up only about 10% of a comprehensive strategy. When your goal is to secure a rank in the least number of attempts, the stakes are even higher. Here’s how UAP Mentorship elevates your preparation to the next level:
- Personalized Study Plan: Sit down with a mentor to craft a detailed, fortnightly study schedule that covers the syllabus systematically. After each cycle, attempt a mock test to evaluate your progress and identify areas for improvement.
- Expert Feedback: Practicing mocks is great, but imagine receiving sharp, actionable feedback from a mentor who has guided toppers like AIR 2, 22, 48, and others. Learn how to gain those crucial extra marks for each question and unlock the X-factor in your preparation.
- Mapping Mains Themes: Solving Prelims and Mains PYQs is just the beginning. With UAP, you’ll work with mentors to map the UPSC syllabus onto key Mains themes, using PYQs to prioritize your revision efforts efficiently.
- Crafting Concise Notes: Already created your Mains revision notes? Let’s take it further by refining them into concise one-pagers for each theme, complete with updated examples and multiple dimensions for deeper understanding.
- Actionable Evaluation: Receiving an evaluated mock test copy is crucial-but what’s next? With UAP, we provide clear, actionable points to work on before you attempt your next mock, ensuring continuous improvement.
If you’re relying on outdated methods, UAP Mentorship might not be for you. But if you’ve tried those approaches and seen their limitations, now’s the time to level up. Apply for UAP Mentorship and experience the difference in your UPSC preparation journey.
What is the Ultimate Assessment Program (UAP)?
UAP is far from your typical course-it’s a complete ecosystem designed to handle every aspect of your UPSC preparation, from refining your strategy to significantly boosting your rank. In 2023, AIR 2 was one of the top ranks produced by UAP, alongside several other rankers. Many of these aspirants cleared the exam in their first attempt, while others succeeded in their final or second-to-last attempts.
These aspirants not only cleared Prelims with ease but also scored 400+ marks in their GS Mains papers. If your goal is to secure a top rank-be it IAS, IPS, or IFS-scoring 400+ in Mains is essential. To make your rank “interview-proof,” you should aim for nothing less than 450+. This is where UAP truly stands out.
UAP cuts through the overwhelming chaos of conventional preparation, bringing intense focus and clarity to your journey. With UAP, you’re not just preparing for an exam-you’re setting yourself up for success. The result? Your name on the final list next year.

Read about IAS Aaditya UPSC Masterclass
PYQs are essential for cracking the UPSC exam, as rankers have emphasized for years. But solving them isn’t enough. Analyzing themes from PYQs and breaking them into micro themes is the new, foolproof strategy for securing a rank.
Identifying themes, breaking them into micro themes, and creating notes can be overwhelming for beginners, but mastering this early is crucial. As the exam demands evolve, this technique is essential to stay competitive and succeed.
Aspirants now need to adapt to micro themes in their preparation. Preparing without micro themes is non-negotiable. Identify important micro themes, make detailed notes on them, refine them into one-pagers, revise them multiple times, and write tests—that’s the grind now. Anything less is no longer acceptable to UPSC.
Aaditya Sir, IAS, is hosting a Zoom session for beginners targeting the 2026 and 2027 attempts. He’ll teach the art of creating one-page micro notes using PYQs and share a strategy for 2026 aspirants. Join him on 13th December at 8 PM.

Read about UPSC’24 Interview Guidance Masterclass
Filling DAF 2 is crucial; it forms the heart and soul of your interview preparation. A lot of opinion-based questions stem from this part of the DAF. There are three important components to consider while filling DAF 2: the (7ABCD) section, service preference order, and cadre/state selection. Aspirants often make mistakes in these areas, only to regret them later.
Using the right language to fill the (7ABCD) section is important, as the themes you mention in that area often become key topics for static and opinion-based questions in the interview. Additionally, understanding the politics and bureaucracy of the states is crucial before selecting cadres and zones.
It is equally important to have knowledge about other Group A services. Beyond the big three, aspirants should explore the perks and opportunities offered by other services as well.
Join Saket Sir for a free masterclass on filling DAF 2 for 2024 on 12th December, where he will guide you through filling DAF 2 word by word, with special emphasis on service selection, the 7ABCD area, and cadre/state selection.

This is the only webinar you need to qualify UPSC in your first attempt. If you’re giving UPSC in 2026, this session by Sreelakshmi Ma’am can’t be missed.
Aspirants now need to adapt to micro themes in their preparation. Preparing without micro themes is non-negotiable. Identify important micro themes, make detailed notes on them, refine them into one-pagers, revise them multiple times, and write tests—that’s the grind now. Anything less is no longer acceptable to UPSC.
For current affairs as well, aspirants need to cover a topic comprehensively from the perspective of all GS papers. This approach benefits both Prelims and Mains. If aspirants fail to do this, they will end up compiling bulky magazines without much clarity. The approach to preparing for this exam, with respect to both static and current affairs, has evolved significantly.

[UPSC Webinar] By Shikhar Sir & Jitendra Sir | Dominate Session: Build Your Own Notes For Prelims 2025 | How To Make Precise Notes For Prelims | Join on 7th December 2024 at 7:00 PM
Register for the session on UPSC Prelims 2025 preparation plan and strategy
Read about Dominate Prelims Masterclass
In this webinar we’ll be exploring three core points related to UPSC Prelims
- Core Books vs. Coaching Notes vs. Personal Notes
It’s important to understand the differences between core books, coaching notes, and personal notes when preparing for exams. Core books are authoritative texts that cover fundamental concepts and essential topics in detail. Coaching notes, on the other hand, are usually summarized materials provided by coaching institutes that focus on key points and exam-specific content. Personal notes are individual compilations of information, insights, and summaries that you create based on your own understanding and study sessions. Utilizing a balanced mix of these resources can provide a comprehensive approach to your exam preparation. - I Haven’t Addressed Current Affairs Yet. What Should I Do?
If you haven’t started studying Current Affairs, it’s crucial to incorporate it into your preparation as soon as possible. Start by identifying a reliable source, such as a monthly magazine or online portal that covers major events and issues. Dedicate a specific time each week to review current events and make notes of significant topics. You may also consider revisiting sources covering Current Affairs from previous months to catch up. Regularly revising these notes will help solidify your understanding and retention of the material. - When Should I Begin Preparing for the Prelims?
The ideal time to start your preparation for the Prelims depends on your existing knowledge, familiarity with the syllabus, and the time remaining until the exam. Generally, it is advisable to begin your preparation at least six months in advance. This allows you ample time to cover all topics thoroughly, practice with mock tests, and revise effectively. Create a structured study plan that includes dedicated time for each subject, practice papers, and regular assessments to track your progress. Starting early will not only help you grasp the syllabus but also reduce last-minute stress.

A graduate of NIT Rourkela, working as a full-time employee in Indian Oil Corp., he cleared UPSC CSE on his first attempt at the age of 24.

Why Civilsdaily Mentorship and Programs Are Unique?
Element No. 1: The System
The first element of the powerful mentorship program at CD is – The System.
The system is the method that is used during the program. One of the first surprising elements of a Civilsdaily program is that we do an early assessment of the current stage of aspirants. This is done in 10+ dimensions. Along with that, you get a lot of study material in advance. Unlike other courses that give you average content when the course begins, you get high-quality content for UPSC Prep well in advance. The reason for this is simple: The Mentor is not around to create “shock and awe”. Instead, the element that really helps learning is the “safe zone”. When aspirants get the material in advance, it gives them time to learn and absorb it. And then, when the initial assessments happen in the form of mock tests, the aspirant is able to apply the learning.
One big reason we fail to learn and progress in UPSC Prep is that we do not have time to practice and attempt mocks.
No one is around to correct our mistakes. All we get is an endless stream of information, and mastery over exam is further away than ever. The notes themselves need design: lots of examples, relevance to PYQs, and easy-to-read language. The syllabus content needs to be broken up into consumable chunks. It’s design, design and more design. Check our atomic and flash notes, and you will understand what we mean. A well-constructed system is the first element of the program at CD but by no means the most important.
Trying to cope with breathless content all at once is extremely intimidating for the aspirants. When you’re in a Civilsdaily Mentorship program, you get the content well in advance. There’s no need to create “shock and awe” while mentoring. You learn better when you know and own the content, using the course to practice and get better at it instead.
Element No. 2: The Group
A journey of a thousand miles can be really intimidating without a group because UPSC -CSE requires MCQ and answer writing aptitude, which requires constant practice. When you work alone, it’s easy to give up or get distracted. A group is what gets you ahead. But how do you get a group that’s focused, smart, and helpful? Do such groups even exist?
There’s a saying in Africa: If you want to go quickly, go alone. If you want to go far, go with a group. And yet, not any group will do, will it? You’ve been in Telegram groups before, and the terms “kind, helpful and smart” don’t come to mind, do they?
The one thing that will amaze you at Civilsdaily is how much you come to rely on your group. At first, many aspirants assume that their progress is a lonely journey. They learn what’s required, do their mocks, and when the course is done, they get to the finish line.
And yet habit-creation reveals something entirely different.
Snagging a bad habit is relatively easy. The moment you have to build a “good habit,” it’s a lot harder to stay motivated—unless, of course, you have a group.
The aspirant groups at the Civilsdaily course are brilliant, focused and helpful.
It almost seems hard to find such an active, helpful bunch of people. And the reason why you’ll find this level of camaraderie here, is because of several reasons. But the biggest reason of all is because we’re selective.
We only let people in if they pass our filters.
We also will not have overloading of any kind. Our program accepts limited aspirants. You simply will not see the ocean full of aspirants you see on other courses. Finally, we break up the groups into even smaller groups of six or seven aspirants. We keep it small and focused. This gets you closer to the finish line. In short, you go far.
Element No. 3: Daily and Weekly Practice
Without practice, mastery of this exam is difficult. Without daily and weekly practice, you have a “decay problem.” Other courses will give you content and mocks once a month and won’t provide any kind of mentor feedback. This is a recipe for disaster. You won’t know if you are making any progress at all.
That’s not how we run our programs.
When you’re a part of the Civilsdaily Mentorship program, whether you’re a beginner or veteran, you have a schedule that is unique to you and your requirements for the duration of the program. As you’d expect, all this is designed with “tiny increments” in mind, but it is the daily and weekly practice that keeps away the decay.
And everything is enriched with a 1:1 mentor call.
Your Mentor checks your preparation and works with you to ensure progress—there is no exception. This enables you to learn bit by bit instead of being dumped with endless content that you might never use in an exam. When you consider all three elements: the system, the group, and the daily and weekly practice, you are able to create a habit. This habit leads to success in exam.
Any new subject or mock can be a little unnerving when you don’t get regular practice. Our program is designed to help you learn layer by layer, and it involves small steps done daily. That way, if you press the “wrong button,” we can learn from the mistake, fix it, and move ahead at an even pace.
This attention to detail is what makes the Civilsdaily Mentorship Program among the best. But you’ll find that out for yourself.

The heart of the Civilsdaily platform is the Foundation Program and Ultimate Assessment Program (UAP). For years, aspirants have enrolled here because they couldn’t find such depth and passion towards quality content and Mentorship anywhere. Their search inevitably ends at Civilsdaily. Enrollment in these programs and Mentorship also makes us accountable to aspirants for the value they get.
In the past few years, we’ve worked quietly in the background with hundreds of aspirants; many now serve as IAS, IPS, IFS, and more. We are very proud of what we’ve achieved. Here are some of the recent rankers who show us gratitude.

[UPSC Webinar] By Meghana NS, IRMS | Prepare for UPSC 2026 with Daily Answer Writing | Learn How I Wrote 5 Answers Daily | Join on 2nd December 2024 at 7:00 PM
Register for the session on UPSC 2026 preparation plan and strategy
Read about Meghana’s UPSC Preparation Journey
Daily answer writing is a common concern for UPSC aspirants. Its importance in preparation is undeniable, but the real challenge lies in knowing when to start and how to use it effectively. Some believe it’s useful only after completing a topic, while others delay it until after Prelims. Some overdo it, while others skip it entirely. Striking the right balance is another challenge many face.
While answer writing is helpful, many aspirants compare their answers to rankers’ and feel inadequate. However, rankers also started as aspirants, and their answers weren’t perfect at first. Everyone begins at level 0 and improves gradually. UPSC 2026 aspirants are currently at level 0. The focus should be on consistency and steadily upgrading skills to improve over time.
Meghana Ma’am, IRMS, wrote 5 answers daily with consistency and credits this practice for securing a UPSC rank. Like every aspirant, she started at level 0 but didn’t let ranker copies intimidate her. Instead, she used them effectively, identified microthemes through PYQs, and wrote answers based on them. She improved her skills by adding diagrams and value-added elements, which helped her achieve success in the exam.
Join Meghana Ma’am on 2nd December 2024 at 7:00 PM for a free Zoom masterclass. She will guide you step by step on improving and maintaining consistency in answer writing, mastering microtheme-based answers, and developing a strategy for UPSC 2026.

[UPSC Webinar] By Nishith Sir, Faculty, Samachar Manthan | Most Effective Plan for UPSC Current Affairs (2026) | Learn How Rankers Follow Only One Source for CA (Prelims + Mains) | Join on 30th November 2024 at 7:00 PM
Register for the session to get complete UPSC Current Affairs preparation plan and strategy
Read about Nishith Sir’s UPSC Current Affairs Webinar
A single source for current affairs should cover both Prelims and Mains while addressing key parts of the static syllabus. Aspirants often struggle with incomplete static portions in areas like Governance and International Relations, yet need to study related current affairs. However, it’s possible to manage both effectively.
For instance, if India-Maldives relations are in the news, reviewing India’s neighborhood policy provides context. Aspirants need a single source that covers current affairs along with the basics of relevant themes
Rankers over the years have emphasized the importance of single sources for preparing current affairs. That’s the one thing you will hear every ranker say: stick to one source. Current affairs for both Prelims and Mains must be done from one source, which becomes your one stop solution for everything.
Aspirants appearing for UPSC 2026 should have one framework and one strategy for current affairs in place now, which eventually becomes their one stop solution. Nishith Sir, on November 30th, Saturday, is conducting a free masterclass where he will outline a plan for UPSC 2026 current affairs preparation using a single source recommended by rankers!

[UPSC Webinar] By Arvind Sir, Lead, Smash Mains | Score 800+ Marks in UPSC Mains with Microthemes | Learn the Theme-Demand Approach to Answer Writing | Join on 28th November 2024 at 7:00 PM
Register for the session to get complete UPSC Mains preparation plan and strategy
Read about Arvind Sir’s UPSC Mains Webinar
Aspirants who clear Mains but don’t make the final list often blame the interview stage for their result. While this might feel reassuring, the reality is they likely fell short in Mains itself. Scoring 750+ in Mains and getting an interview call doesn’t guarantee success, it often shows over reliance on the interview score.
This year, AIR 2 Animesh Pradhan avoided this trap by focusing on making his Mains preparation foolproof, rather than depending on the interview stage.
Microthemes are essential for UPSC preparation. Structuring your Mains preparation around microthemes can help you score 800+ marks. By analyzing PYQs, you can identify key areas, create focused notes, and practice related themes, making your preparation strong. Practicing answer writing based on theme demands further boosts performance.
Arvind Sir, Lead of Smash Mains, has identified key blind spots in Mains preparation. He will conduct a free Zoom masterclass on Thursday, 28th November, at 7 PM. In this session, he will share a proven strategy, used by rankers, to structure Mains preparation with microthemes for scoring 800+ marks.

Register for the session to get complete current affairs preparation plan and strategy
Read about Nishith Sir’s Current Affairs Webinar
Current affairs are essential for all three stages of the UPSC exam. However, bulky magazines full of facts and countless sources often confuse aspirants about the right approach. Most materials focus only on facts, leaving no room for holistic issue analysis. Simply cramming data and tables is not an effective way to prepare.
Aspirants must move beyond facts and develop a holistic understanding of issues, which is essential for both Prelims and Mains.
For example, when studying “bulldozer justice,” they should identify related micro-themes across all GS papers (GS 1 to GS 4) and focus on comprehensive coverage, including a way forward. Understanding how to apply this knowledge in the exam is equally important.
The traditional approach to current affairs no longer meets the exam’s demands.

Read about Mukund Singh Chahar’s UPSC Preparation Journey
UPSC 2026 is 18 months away, and you need a plan to start with now. There is no need to rush and feel overwhelmed. The preparation itself can be divided into 5 phases:
Nov 2024 – Feb 2025: What should aspirants focus on during these initial months?
March 2025 – June 2025: How to balance preparation as the exam approaches mid-year?
July 2025 – Sept 2025: Strategies for maintaining momentum and intensive revision.
Oct 2025 – Jan 2026: Preparing for the final stretch—key priorities and approaches.
Feb 2026 – April 2026: Last-minute preparation, mock tests, and fine-tuning.
Aspirants need to divide the preparation into micro months and carefully insert subjects here.Once aspirants have divided their preparation into 5 phases, the second step is to allocate subjects within these time frames, covering everything from essays to ethics and also their optional subject. The final step is having a toolkit, which outlines how to approach each subject with respect to sources, tests, and the time allocation needed.

AIR 48, IAS Aaditya PandeyRegister for the session to get preparation plan and strategy for Ethics and Essay Paper
Read about AIR-48, IAS Aaditya Pandey‘s UPSC Preparation Journey
Ethics, Essay, and optional subjects are key to succeeding in the UPSC exam. Excelling in the Ethics paper can significantly boost your chances of making the final list, as a strong grasp of ethics typically indicates good answer-writing skills. If you can complete the Ethics paper on time, it’s likely you’ll manage to finish other General Studies papers as well. Moreover, a solid understanding of ethics is beneficial for the Essay paper.
To write an effective Ethics answer, it’s important to focus on content enrichment, use a theme-specific framework (such as ready-made points for topics like Corporate Governance, Emotional Intelligence, Aptitude vs. Attitude), and pay attention to presentation aspects, including the use of diagrams, interlinking with specific examples, and structuring of case studies. Covering different dimensions and linking points to theories are also crucial for crafting a strong Ethics paper.
IAS Aaditya Pandey sir (AIR 48), in this masterclass, he’ll share his strategy and what contributed to his success. He will be sharing GS Paper -4 and Essay preparation plan and strategy.

[Beginner’s Webinar] By Eshani Anand, AIR 79 | 1.5-Year Plan to Clear UPSC 2026 in the First Attempt | Know the Topper’s Mindset | Join on 4th November 2024 at 7:00 PM
I will share a solid preparation roadmap & strategic blueprint for UPSC 2026—a no-nonsense, straight-to-the-point session.
Eshani Anand, AIR 79, UPSC’23Register for the session to get preparation roadmap and strategy for UPSC-CSE 2026
Read about AIR-79′ Eshani Anand’s UPSC Preparation Journey
“Hi, I’m Ishani, AIR 79 in UPSC 2023. My journey was as much about personal growth as academic preparation. Initially, I followed conventional methods, but after my first prelims attempt, I realised the exam demanded a deeper self-awareness. Inspired by my father’s work in bureaucracy, I prioritised emotional intelligence, empathy, and resilience. I developed my own strategies, like a ‘cookie jar’ of small achievements for motivation, and stayed grounded through supportive friends, journaling, and hobbies. This journey taught me that success comes from authenticity, adaptability, and continuous learning.”
Join me for a Zoom session on Nov 04th, 2024, at 7:00 p.m. It’s for everyone, whether you’re new to UPSC or you’ve tried before but are targeting a Top 50 rank in UPSC 2026.
In the session, we will discuss how to start and strategize your prep for UPSC 2026. I will share a precise stepwise study plan and approach for a top 50 rank. I will also discuss the philosophy of UPSC prep, what UPSC expects, and how you should adapt to meet those expectations.
We will deal with all the aspects for a comprehensive UPSC preparation.
We’ll talk about starting with the basics, NCERTs that aren’t just textbooks but your foundation stones. You will have to complement this with a disciplined approach to reading newspapers and covering CA. It’s not about skimming through; it’s about understanding the world around you, which is crucial for both Prelims and Mains.
Gradually how to progress to standard books, but do so with a strategy. You don’t just read; you analyze and understand. And here’s where the mindset plays a massive role. Transforming from an aspirant to a top ranker isn’t just about hard work but smart work, the right attitude, and persistence.
Focus on mastering answer writing should be from early on. Your notes should be concise, clear, and, most importantly, useful. You have to learn to weave current affairs with static portions seamlessly. This isn’t just preparation; it’s about building a habit, a discipline that will stand you in good stead for UPSC and life.
I’ve talked to thousands of UPSC hopefuls on YouTube and through Civilsdaily. I know what you’re up against because I’ve been there. In this webinar, I’ll also share my notes with you.
I genuinely believe std. resources and mock tests are not enough now to get a rank in UPSC CSE.
One must consider the overall preparation strategy and how he/she will approach the exam.
Now you need to define the exact plan.
This thinking gives you an edge over others in the exam. You become relaxed and confident throughout the journey, which is otherwise filled with lots of daily anxiety, fear, and uncertainty.
This Sunday, I am coming to help you create your own preparation plan, especially if you are a beginner. You must attend this.
My masterclass will be a reality check on modern-day UPSC prep. Not just my book list and strategy but also my inputs on your current strategy shared with you over our private Zoom meeting.”
Join me on 04th Nov, at 7 PM, for an exclusive webinar on UPSC 2026 preparation roadmap and how to perform at the alpha level in your very first attempt.
It will be a practical webinar and here’s what we will be discussing:
- Micro Timetable for 2026 & How should an absolute beginner start his/ her UPSC 2026 prep? What are the high yielding areas that are quick to conquer and necessary to master.
- Important Micro-themes for GS Papers (Absolute negotiable for every beginner) – If you miss mastering these, forget your rank, you will risk even your mental health – so get them right
- Note-Making and Answer Writing & UPSC PYQs to show the difference between a beginner vs. a ranker’s attempt to the same question.
It will be a 45 minute webinar, post which we will open up the floor for all kinds of queries which a beginner must have. No questions are taboo and Eshani mam is known to be patiently solving all your doubts.
