Detailed Micro-Plan – The detailed plan covers the Prelims & Mains Syllabus which will take care of your overall preparation in the form of daily targets. Each Module spans over 10 + days and at the end of the modules, you’ll be taking a Prelims and Mains Test. The Daily Plan also includes sources to refer to. Current Affairs are also part of the planning so that both static and current issues are dealt with simultaneously.
Microplanning is the heart and soul of ILP-2024 that needs to be followed with utmost sincerity.
NCERT Coverage- ILP-2024 Value Add Notes (VAN) will include thorough coverage of NCERT relevant for UPSC Prelims and Mains.
Minimum Sources – The sources to be referred to have been kept to the bare minimum. If you go through the plan, you will find that we have confined our sources to a maximum of 2 per subject (One being NCERT). It has been done to prevent a candidate from wasting their precious time in going through the repetitive and irrelevant sources available in the market. You’ll be following one reference book per subject and IASbaba’s Value Add Notes (VAN).
