Hello Candidate ,

Hope you are in best of your health , so  the question to your answer is that UPSC i.e union public service commision  exam Syllabus is divided into three categories, namely Preliminary, Mains and Interview.

The Preliminary syllabus is primarily intended to test a candidate's current-accountability and aptitude in a limited amount of time. The preparatory exam is both mandatory and qualifying. The Mains syllabus is primarily intended to assess a candidate's academic skills in his or her chosen field. The curriculum also assesses candidates' ability to convey information in a clear and logical manner. The major test consists of nine exams, and the syllabus is based on the topics chosen. The written test is the focus of the Preliminary and Mains curriculums. Candidates who pass the Preliminary and Main examinations are eligible to participate in the interview.
