How do I analyse my prelims tests?
With UPSC Prelims being 50 days away, this is the most common queries I receive.
This will help you analyse them better
Testing Basics
Practice tests assess:
• Your knowledge of the subject.
• Where you stand in the competition.
(marks)
Focusing on marks in tests is like trying to score a century in net practice.
In tests focus on 1, marks will increase by themselves.
Knowledge of the Subject
After any test, ask yourself:
• Did I make conceptual errors? Spend time on the basics. 1st priority.
• Did I make factual errors? Then revise more. 2nd priority.
Revise you must, but first understand.
Types of Errors
In tests, identify YOUR ERROR TYPE(s).
• Lack of info - read more
• Unable to recall info - revise more
• Lack of focus/fear - meditate
• Taking excess risk - analyse risk
Step 1: identify error
Step 2: apply solution
Post Review Reading
If you just re-read the test solutions that will make you good at THAT test, not the subject.
Keep revisiting the basic sources.
How many Qs should you attempt?
There is no right answer here.
Based on your accuracy & difficulty of the test, anything from 60-90 questions can work.
Ex: I attempted 76 Qs in Prelims 2020, while I'd always done ~90 Qs before.
Taking risks
When you look at a Q, don't look at the subject. Look at whether a Q is factual or conceptual.
Take more risk in conceptual Qs and less in factual.
NOTE: Risk should be proportional to your comfort in a subject.
Prelims Subject Distinction
Factual subjects:
• Ancient history
• Medieval history
• Geography
Conceptual subjects:
• Polity
• Economy
NOTE: Each subject has both concepts and facts. This distinction is based on PYQS (2019-21).
When choosing between two options I always choose the wrong one!
Measure the % of error in the 50-50 type of questions in last 3 tests you've given. More than 75%? Deliberately mark the other option in the next 3 tests.
Facing a problem? Don't stop there, experiment.
Game of Nerves
Telling you to take the shot is one thing, but taking the shot is another.
Sitting in the exam, marking a question when you don't know the right answer and knowing that a year could hang in the balance can be hard.
Use tests to develop nerves of steel.
