There is no Ancient and Medieval History in UPSC Mains. In mains we have Art & Culture. All the questions UPSC asks from Ancient and Medieval History in mains are related to Art and Culture. #UPSC

No need to read Science (6-10) NCERTS for Science & Technology in UPSC. UPSC is focussing on Science and Technology, not on pure science i.e Biology, Chemistry, Physics. Focus more on current affairs, latest technologies, PYQs, etc. for UPSC S&T portion.

Ethics for UPSC 1. Pickup a book, Lexicon or DK Balaji. Read and revise it multiple times. 2. Read 'ethics toppers' mock test answer copies. Analyse how they are writing. Eg:- Sarthak Agarwal (2020) rank 17. 3. Write answers and case studies. Repeat the process. 🔁 #UPSC

GS Mains paper 2, marks break out as per subject. 1. Polity: 125 Marks. 2. Social Justice & Governance: 75 Marks. 3. International Relations: 50 Marks. Conclusion: GS paper 2 is not just polity or Lakshmikant.

To ace prelims you must have strong command over Polity and economics. Year after year 30-35 questions are asked in Prelims, from these two subjects. It's huge number right. You must prioritise these two subjects in your preparation. #UPSC

Plan your tomorrow today. Before going to bed, just write down your tomorrow's plan. Write what you study, how many hours you study etc. Just see how helpful it is. It reduces anxiety, improves productivity, brings discipline and consistency to your preparation. #UPSC
