UPPCS-2021

After analysing 2019 and 2020 paper, I think History and Geography part need to read from conventional sources keeping in mind factual nature of the exam. Also S&T plus CAs portion need to read exclusively for PCS. I am planning to cover these two from Ghatna Chakra. For rest I will read UPSC sources only with bit more stress on facts. Baaki will see....:)

Schedule could be made but If writing CSE also then better to cover sources for CSE only with emphasis on facts. Last two weeks can be exclusively given to UPPSC.

@Jon_Targeryan Bhai material mil jayega par time kaha milega padhne ka. Mahesh Kumar Baranwal for Geography is very popular among UPPSC aspirant community. There is certainly trade off between CSE and PCS. I think at max 2 weeks can be given exclusively to PCS.

@Zilingo I don't have much idea as this is going to be my first attempt at PCS but I did a little research about sources. There is a common consensus about Ghatna Chakra. If all are to be done thoroughly including that of CAs, cut off could be cleared. But these are bulky so priority wise I suggest doings CAs>S&T>History>Geography>Polity>UP special>Environment>Economy. First two are absolutely necessary and rest could be done from conventional sources with greater focus on facts. Other sources could be Baranwal for Geography, Lucent General Science, Study for Civil Services CAs material, Old Ncerts for Ancient and Medieval and rest UPSC sources.

@Zilingo Yes, Ghatna Chakra Purwalokan name se. For 2021, I think General Science and Polity is available in the market. Rest will be released soon.

@MaeveWiley Okay. Also last years cutoff was 110(83 Questions) and this year i think take in is 15 times, so may be cutoff will reduce a bit.  Any idea about when Official answer key will come?
