WHICH BOOKS SHOULD I PREFER FOR IES PREPARATION AND WHEN SHOULD I START THE PREPARATION?

Step 1 Study Material.

First and most thing is that study material. As you are already pursuing your B- tech I assume that you already have standard textbooks. So I suggest you that start reading from that books only. If not then I suggest purchase study material of IES Master that's really gud for civil Engineering.

Step 2. Setting of Targets

For achieving big things you have to set small-small goals and have to work towards them . Like fixing the no of days for a particular subjects and you also have to finished that subject in that time period only because you already running behind the time so no relaxation allowed always keep this in your mind.

Step 3. Strategy for Studying

1.) IES exam comprises of both Objective and Conventional Papers so in beginning please don’t target only on objective papers because subjective questions help you in understanding the subject in better way and it also help in solving objective questions.

2.) After finishing each subjects start solving its last 15 year objective questions and solve atleast 40–50% Subjective questions of last 15 years.

3.) Just like you have to set target so that by 10–15 December you can complete all the subjects .

4.) For paper 1 you have to simultaneously read current affair magazine of a particular month, I suggest you don’t waste time in reading newspapers because current affair magazine of vajiram and ravi (online available) and vision IAS is enough, newspaper consume too much time and things that we want is also not get easily in newspapers. I also advice you purchase one book for paper 1 either from Made-easy or fom IES-mster it contain all the miscellaneous topics that asked in paper 1. keep reading this books simultaneously while preparing for technical portion.

Step 4. Test Series

Join the objective test series (Available online) by the November end and start giving test in December, I suggest you please give atleast 2–3 Full length test and one more thing I like to tell you is that please don’t be demotivate if you get less marks in test. It happens with everyone only thing that you have to do is to analyse your test start preparing your weak points. For conventional papers also I suggest you join test series in month of march and start giving test this tests give you actual feel of exam and helps you in making strategy for attending actual exams .

So In the end start preparing for IES you have enough time and you can easily crack this exam . Only thing that you have to do is strictly follow your study plan and always stick with it in any situations . If you need any other Suggestions feel free to ask I love to help future IES aspirants
