UPSC Civil Services Exam is one of the most prestigious exams in the country. It has three parts, the Prelims exam, the Main exam and the Personality test, which you need to clear in order to become an IAS or IPS officer. All other Group A services of the Government of India recruit people through the UPSC Civil services exam itself and because of this, there is a lot of competition in this exam. Hence, your UPSC preparation should be strategic, informed and well planned.
Your UPSC preparation should not be based on blind adherence to any program. Rather you should give a thought about how your are preparing. The best way to go forward is to study the blogs and tips given by previous year toppers about how to go about UPSC CSE for all three stages of UPSC Prelims, UPSC Mains and the Personality test also known as the UPSC Interview, and then make your UPSC preparation strategy accordingly.
Doing static subjects like polity, economy, environment, geography and history for your UPSC preparation is a solid bet to increase your chances of clearing this exam. But this must all be supplemented by current affairs for best effect.

@@Himank1112 nice to know your background mera bday 20 june h 😂😂 Lets come to path 1. Basis on your interest choose that in your graduation If you are from medical and then follow medical field that there will be very less time for preparation in graduation years so you can start in graduation years too but it will be very difficult to maintain 2 different streams so you have 2 options first is to try little little preparation and after the graduation try full fledged Second you can start your graduation from the topic that is available in the optional subject of upsc so in the graduation also you will be more aligned to completing your optional in your 1 attempt also while doing these subjects you will get more time to complete pre syallabus so there is maximum chances if you follow daily targets and do the study discipline you will clear pre easily in first attempt Now for mains if you write one question daily regarding the syallabus you completed will also ready you in the mains part So follow one path and do that Also please enjoy your college life too these ages is supposed to find balance between both You will get enough time in graduation to enjoy and study too just believe in yourself ❤️
