Secret of Prelims - High Yielding Topics | Course Overview | How to Prepare for UPSC Prelims 2022

Описание: Sometimes we struggle to qualify the Prelims even once, some people qualify prelims 6 of 6, or 9 of 9 times!! How? The strategy is very simple: Previous Year Questions and These 70 Topics!!
20-20 and 50-50 Series:
UPSC is asking questions from these topics for past 40+ years. There is no reason that UPSC would not ask questions from these topics in the upcoming years.
UPSC has to ask questions from these topics. IF UPSC would stop asking questions from these topics, the Cut-offs would go below 70, or may be even 50.
These are the extremely High Yielding topics for Prelims. These topics, along with 5 basic books are good enough to qualify the Prelims, even in the continuously changing and evolving pattern.
This course, along with 5 Basic books, and Synopsis IAS Current Affairs Programme would be a decisive step for your Prelims.
