SFG – How it works 

              • Select Focus Group (SFG) is a small group of students who are selected by ForumIAS every year for coaching them to clear the UPSC Prelims Examination. Every single candidate selected and retained consistently in the group with Top ranks has cleared the Prelims examination in the past.
              • 100 Students will be selected for the Select Focus Group, through the SFG Entrance Test, who will be required to report at 7AM every day 6 days a week to write an hour-long test based on a pre-planned syllabus, followed by a discussion on the same. 
              • Candidates who are unable to make it to the SFG will be maintained in a Reserve List, who can also write the tests. 
              • Tests are conducted daily and results are provided within 8 hours of test with a Name and Rank list for candidates and parents to evaluate their daily performance. 
              • All candidates writing the CSE 2021 are eligible to apply for the entrance test.

              Please reschedule the entrance test date or timing because of its clash with state service exam of Madhya Pradesh (MPPSC).

              Sir, syllabus for the entrance test? Current Affairs too included?


              92.5k views

              @forumiasacademy One request, please include topic-wise current affairs rather than month-wise, since most people read from topic-wise modules rather than from monthly current affairs.

              Also, please include one test on covid -- all aspects from the epidemic act, to the biology of the virus and vaccines, etc. so that we can test ourselves on the facts we are supposed to know

              We are doing it online only as of now. The offline call will be taken if any orders from govt come changing the current status. Also more than that, in offline mode more than 1000+ candidates may end up writing tests, we don’t want to be ones who put at risk so many people. Even if it’s not fatal, some of our students have reported long term impacts and weakness for months.

              Got your point 😊, but I was not asking about appearing in the entrance test, wanted to know if the program can be offline, or atleast if you can allow collecting question paper at 7 am from the centre. 

              Not asking for any exception here, just want to know if it's possible.

              if the classes are being conducted online, then why is the fees increased to 2400+gst for sfg.

              sfg1 and sfg2 didn't have so much fees, not even for rlg
