What is UPSC CSE?

 Every year, the UPSC Civil Services Exam (CSE) is held to recruit candidates for various Indian central government, civil services such as IAS, IPS, IFS (Foreign), IRS, IP & TAFS, IFoS (Forest), ITS, and others. It is regarded as one of the most difficult tests in the country.

The UPSC CSE, also known as the IAS test, is held after the issuance of the UPSC vacancy memo.

I tell you, the UPSC exam is nothing short of a marathon. In order to be selected as an IAS officer, you must pass all three rounds. The Prelims are the first round, the Mains are the second, and the personal interviews are the third.

I’ll be talking a bit more about these rounds in the section of the IAS exam pattern further down in the blog.

If you succeed in becoming an IAS officer, you will become vital part of our country’s 
bureaucratic Structure.  At every level of your assignment, you will have significant 
socioeconomic impact in the work area. When it comes to the UPSC CSE’s hardness, it is commonly regarded as having high difficulty level. 


Not 
only is the 
paper difficult, but so is the competition. As result, as stated in the TVF’s 
“Aspirants” on YouTube, you will need to be exceedingly focused, persevering, and patient in order to pass the IAS  officer exam.

Therefore, having said all that I guess you already know that the UPSC recruitment being spoken of here is the CSE, also called the Civil services exams. 

Now, to get recruited as an IAS or IPS officer is a pretty grueling process, with annual UPSC recruitment processes lasting for a duration of more than 9 months. 

Millions of students apply for the process each year, and only a handful are able to get through to being able to fill in the various UPSC vacant positions.

What is IAS exam pattern?

As I have mentioned before, to ace in any field, may it be at sports or at academics, you’d need to analyse and know the playing ground like the back of your hand. As a sportsman and a successful academician, I can vouch for the importance of knowing your playing field and the rules of the game wholeheartedly.  Basically, to ace the UPSC exams also, knowing the UPSC exam pattern is of utmost importance. Everything that you’ll ever learn and prepare for during your  IAS preparations  will have to ultimately be calibrated to the IAS exam pattern. That’s how important the topic of the UPSC exam pattern is.   So, to get to the real thing the UPSC exam is comprised of  3 stages . The  first stage as per the examination pattern is the Prelims round , which is essentially an elimination round designed to filter out a majority of unsuitable candidates.    Then comes the  second phase a...

How to Optimally Utilize Suggested UPSC Books

  It should be noted that the UPSC Syllabus is vast, and therefore, it takes a minimum duration of at least a year to read through comprehensively. Thus, make sure that you do not waste precious time reading from books that are not up to the mark or are below standard. By below standard, I mean books that might contain unauthenticated or incorrect information. Make sure to take notes while reading from the IAS books that I have listed for you above. There are some excellent IAS books for preparation like Laxmikanth, & the NCERTs. Books such as these are tailor-made for the UPSC exams. This is because a lot of questions related to the subject of polity are asked directly from this book. These are the kind of books that you should read as thoroughly as possible. In addition to the points that I have written above, there are a lot of books that consist of information in a “notes”- like format. So, in a way, books like these already do provide you with the notes that you need to ...

UPSC Cutoff

UPSC Cut off Let’s go through some of the important points based on how the Cut off for the UPSC is calculated:   The  marks of Prelims Cut off  are  based on paper 1 of the prelims  or the GS paper  only . The marks that you secure in Paper 2 will not be considered when counting your merit ranking.  Paper 2 is qualifying in nature  and you need to  score at least 33 % in it to qualify for the Mains  round. The  cut off marks  for the UPSC basically are the  marks secured that the last candidate  that was selected for that round. The cut off marks for both the UPSC rounds of Prelims and Mains are released only after the final IAS results of the exams for the year are declared. Given below are a few cases that the UPSC has offered clarifications on:   Case 1 – If 2 aspirants score equal aggregate marks in the UPSC exam, then the aspirant who has secured more marks in the compulsory papers + the IAS Interview,...
