The UPSC 2024 toppers demonstrated that consistency, clarity of concepts, and a customized strategy can work wonders in cracking this elite exam. Some of the common factors in their success were:
Success in UPSC CSE requires a mix of intelligent study, planning strategy, and never-ending commitment. Going by the toppers of 2023 and 2024, below are some time-tested tips for aspirants:
Know the Syllabus Back-to-Front: Go through the UPSC syllabus very carefully for both Prelims and Mains before starting preparation. Divide it into segments — static and dynamic — and prepare a micro-plan.
Adhere to Limited and Relied-On Sources: Don’t be a jack of all books. Stick to usual sources such as NCERTs, Laxmikanth for Polity, Spectrum for Modern History, and morning editorials from The Hindu or Indian Express for current affairs.
Form Daily & Weekly Targets: Split your preparation into daily and weekly targets. Devote fixed hours for every GS paper, current affairs, and optional subject.
Focus Answer Writing Practice: Join a good test series and keep writing answers regularly. UPSC appreciates clear expression and organized answers. Go through toppers’ copies to enhance.
Revise, Revise & Revise: The syllabus is huge, but revision is crucial. Set aside at least 2 months prior to prelims and 1 month prior to mains for revision only.
Select Optional Wisely: Choose an optional subject based on interest and overlap with GS papers. PSIR, Sociology, Anthropology, and Geography are still very popular subjects.
Mock Interviews & Personality Development: After qualifying Mains, concentrate on confidence building, clarity, and analytical approach for the interview. Keep yourself updated with current affairs and do mock interviews.
