How i prepare for upse ? What should i do? I had just pass 12 class this year.

Upsc can be cleared if one keeps oneself updated about the recent news , history, geography. Maths upto 10th can help. I dont think one needs to undertake necessary coaching . You can solve practice books that have upsc type questions .

hey aspirant,

Hi there.

First things first, for becoming an IAS officer one has to write the UPSC examinations that occur in three stages: Preliminary, Mains and Personal Interview.

The Preliminary exams are just for the sake of qualifying to Mains. Your preliminary exam's score won't be considered in the final score. The final score consists of Mains and Personal Interview. Preliminary is an MCQ based exam whereas Mains exam is a full-fledged written exam with an optional subject.

One needs to have a graduation degree in any discipline from any recognized University to be eligible to write the UPSC examinations.

It is advisable to start your preparation from the very first year of graduation. Start with the basic NCERT books of Class VI-XII of History, Geography, Economics, and Science.

Slowly, build momentum and start with Indian Polity book by Lakshmikant. For a proper and full booklist head to Mrunal's blog or Unacademy's website (Roman Saini's lessons).

Develop a habit of reading The Hindu daily to be updated with current affairs. Read the Yojana Magazine regularly.

Hello aspirant,

Glad to learn about your intetest.

Minimum requirement is for you to clear your graduation.

You can clear UPSC exam with or without coaching but coaching helps you to understand a basic concept of pattern understanding if you have no one to guide you.

You can do coaching/self study during your graduation.

Refer to gk books, history and geography should be your best friends.

Maths upto 10th level is required.

One optional subject.

One compulsory language.

Understand the pattern of question paper.

Watch youtube videos related to this.

You will easily time table/ strategy videos by Tina Dhabi on youtube.

During your graduation this is enough provided you stick to this schedule.

For now prefer NCERT books for history, geography, maths, english from 9th to 12th.

Maths 10th level.

All the best.
