EXCLUSIVE NCERT CLASSES

• NCERT forms the foundation of civil services which cannot be ignored.
• We assume that students are starting with 0% Knowledge and we teach them from the basic NCERTs to the standards expected from UPSC.
• To make your foundation strong, we have included exclusive classes on NCERT in a theme-wise manner, rather than book-wise.

SUBJECT-WISE CLASSES

• While teaching we always keep in mind that building the basics in every subject is very important.
• Every subject is preceded by a Strategy or an Approach class where sessions will be in sync with UPSC trend with previous year’s questions analysis and discussing the topics where the probability of asking the question is more.
• The UPSC trend analysis and the approach classes will give you clarity on what to read, what not to read, and how to read. This will help you in building a strong foundation in your preparation.

EXCLUSIVE CURRENT AFFAIRS CLASSES

• Current Affairs is the most important part of the Civil Services Examination (CSE). High number of questions are asked directly or indirectly in all three stages of the exam i.e. Prelims, Mains and Interview.
• Exclusive Weekly Current Affairs Classes – 48 Classes

EXCLUSIVE ESSAY CLASSES

• Essay Preparation is often ignored and taken for granted by both the aspirants and the traditional coaching institutes. UPSC CSE 2021 Essay Paper was a nightmare for majority of the aspirants and was an eye-opener. So, to keep the students ready, we deliver and discuss each and every possible theme (Special focus on Philosophical Essays) on which essays can be asked by the UPSC.
• 10 Exclusive Essay Classes – Each and Every Theme will be discussed in detailed and Live Essay Writing in the Class.

With our ‘Value Add’ notes (VAN), you will be able to declutter the complexity of UPSC syllabus. The VANs are high-quality specialised reading materials to give you an edge over your competitors. VANs have been designed intelligently to give separate prelims and mains focus pointers to make your understanding seamless and smooth. The notes will be given topic wise for all the topics in syllabus (Prelims and Mains) to ease your preparation.

The Schedule is designed in such a way that the targets are achievable for a sincere and serious aspirant. The schedule is practical, in the sense that adequate time is given to prepare for each test along with optimum revision time and regular breaks.

We have tried to sync the Prelims and Mains Tests wherever possible.

One will have adequate time between every test to work upon the shortcomings and improve on it. Mentorship will have a greater role to play and will have a greater impact.
