UPSC CSE Why

Mea culpa! 🙏🏻 Be mindful of keywords you pick. Here’s a feedback I collected from Anupam Sir for myself and you all to learn from! React to this post to tell me you’ve taken a note of this 😄

Why PYQs are important? See this 2022 Pre question. Which of these cause Acid rain? If you are not from science background, very tough to answer this (science waalo ko bhi nahi pata hoga 😂) But if you had done PYQs, in 2010, it was asked as “oxides of which of these cause acid rain?” Start analysing every Q of PYQs and make a google doc note. On the right is my PYQ doc. Solved the question in less than 5 seconds in real exam. Saved so much time and gained confidence! 🤭☺️ Acha laga aur baat samajh me aayi toh react karo! 🥰

Following this, see this SCO article in The Hindu. Map with syllabus to GS2 Bilateral, regional & global groupings. You can make notes as you do (digital or handwritten) but also take these 2 keywords for above mentioned syllabus topic: *Strategic Autonomy and Multi-alignment*

By the time you are ready for writing mains, har topic par 4-5 keywords honge aapke paas. Socho kitna jaldi revise kar paoge aur kitna badhiya impact aaega aapke examiner par. :)

Write syllabus of all subjects in JUST one excel sheet. Anything you need, one simple quick go to resource :D

Keywords play a significant role in bettering your answers. For example, the Revenge Travel Trend I shared yesterday will help you catch the attention of your examiner. Similarly, another example: Forward Backward linkages is a key word in FPIs from GS3. How to train your mind to develop these keywords? Start maintaining a google excel sheet like one shown below. Whatever good keyword you read or the ones I share, throw it here! Idea is to make your preparation aligned, easy to revise, visually appealing and sexy. Think of it from design perspective. You won't like to see a badly shot video or use a stupid UI/UX app. Thus, develop resources that you feel good re-reading. Add to it once you organize the key words against the syllabus, you will have two benefits: 1 you will develop a visual memory 2 you can match the relevant data in this excel sheet to further enhance quality of your answers

Want to start answer writing but don’t know how or where to start? Here’s a full proof 7 days plan. On the 8th day, answer writing shall come naturally to you! 😁 Take this 7 day challenge and mail me on 8th to discuss way forward.

“Revenge Travel Trend” A great value addition you can add for GS3 topics like: - economic growth - travel and tourism layout - Civil Aviation infrastructure

Another leaf from my visual notes - “Lakes of India” Notice how different ink color is used for diff lake- salt water, freshwater, artificial. When you’re sitting in a stressful exam, a visual memory via such notes will help you make a quick recollection. 🥰
