2. Mains exam preparation along with Prelims:


  • Because there is a syllabus overlap, candidates should prepare for both the UPSC Prelims and the UPSC Mains at the same time.


  • Examine previous years' question papers for CSAT or General Studies Paper-II in UPSC Prelims to determine your level. As a result, CSAT preparation is minimal; however, only you can make that decision.



3. Practice with MCQs:

Because the questions in the UPSC Prelims are all objective-type, it is critical to practice answering MCQs while studying.
