    When starting to study for the UPSC exam, it’s important to first understand the syllabus and format of the exam. The UPSC exam consists of two stages: the preliminary exam (also known as the “prelims”) and the main exam. The preliminary exam is a multiple choice test that consists of two papers: General Studies Paper 1 and General Studies Paper 2 (CSAT). The main exam is a written test that consists of 9 papers, including essays, general studies and optional subject papers.

    Once you have a good understanding of the syllabus and format of the exam, you can begin your preparation by:

    Building a strong foundation in the basic concepts and principles of each subject. Start by reading the NCERT textbooks for History, Geography, and Science, as they provide a good foundation for the General Studies papers.

    Reading and reviewing standard textbooks for other subjects such as Indian Polity by Laxmikanth, Indian Economy by Ramesh Singh, and Public Administration, Sociology, and International Relations.

    Building your knowledge of current affairs by reading newspapers, magazines, and online resources.

    Taking practice tests and quizzes to evaluate your understanding of the material and identify areas you need to focus on.

    Consistently self-assess, take regular breaks, and maintain a balance with other activities such as physical exercise and leisure time to avoid burnout.

    It’s important to remember to start early and consistently work on the preparation. It’s better to start with the basics and build up gradually.

    In short, start your UPSC preparation by understanding the syllabus, building a strong foundation in the basic concepts, reading standard textbooks, keeping updated with current affairs, practicing with tests and quizzes, and consistently self-assessing while taking regular breaks and maintaining a balance with other activities.
