WHY IS PRELIMS-CUM-MAINS

PROGRAMME IMPORTANT FOR

A FRESH ASPIRANT?

The UPSC website provides information regarding the exam but to make sense out of it and then sculpt the right strategy to crack it is a demanding task for anyone. Prelims-cum-Mains programme equips you with smart ways to gather, sort, prioritize, understand, and present information in the right way. It is designed to give students ample time for introspect on their strengths and weaknesses, and improvise the right strategy to crack the CSE, with the help of mentors.

PRELIMS-CUM-MAINS PROGRAMME

Prelims-cum-Mains Programme is one of our most sought-after comprehensive programmes which is specifically crafted to arm you with the essential skills, knowledge, motivation, and morale to take on the challenges in crossing the hurdles towards achieving the ultimate goal of cracking the UPSC Civil Service Examination (CSE).

The Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) conducts the Civil Services (Preliminary) Examination every year. This exam is popularly known by its sobriquet, “Prelims.” The Prelims, which is common for all candidates applying for Civil Services Examination and Indian Forest Service Examination, acts as a primary elimination process to shortlist candidates for Civil Services (Main) Examination, also known as 'the Mains'.

As you read further, you will realise that the CSE syllabus includes mostly the subjects that you have already covered in school. That sounds easy, right? But despite appearing simple, the exam demands a lot of study and understanding of each subject.

The subjects that are tested in the CSE are those your comprehension of which are important in taking informed decisions as a civil servant. It should not be forgotten that IAS officers have to deal with people and policies.

The Prelims-cum-Mains Programme is a holistic classroom programme which prepares you for both the Prelims, Mains, and Personality Test stages of the CSE.
