  • Over 50% of the Mains Candidates of 2018 failed to clear 2019 Prelims. Know why?

    View the schedule for Prelim TS Batch 2: Click2View.  Click here to enroll in Batch 2 for the Prime Prelims TS

    Many of the mains and Interview candidates of 2018 failed to get over the line in Prelims 2019. The chief reason was overconfidence –

    “I’ve figured out UPSC’s pattern”.

    “I can use compilations to keep up with Current Affairs”

    “I can score well without practicing with a Test Series”

    The result was mayhem on the D-Day and then the blame game started. UPSC used confusing language, questions were wrong, obscure sources etc.

    The bottom line is that some people still managed to remain unfazed by changes and cleared prelims again. What did they do differently? Simply put, they were more prepared.

    How can you do that? By following these 5 simple steps

    • Invest in a comprehensive Test Series – Look no further than Civilsdaily’s Prime TS
    • Cover the complete syllabus.
    • Revise, revise, revise ……..
    • Analyze and work on your weaknesses – Exam day stress can be tackled by multiple Full-Length Tests

    Peak at the right time – pace your preparation in tune with exam cycle

    Don’t let overconfidence ruin another year.

  • Economic Survey 2019: Introductory Lecture

     


    Economic survey and Union budget are the two most important economic documents of the government. They outline the vision for the Indian economy, challenges faced, and mitigating strategies.

    Keeping in mind that these two documents are technical in nature and a large number of students find it difficult to understand.

    We at Civils daily are launching a program on economic survey and budget under the mentorship of Himanshu Arora sir, to give students a detailed understanding of survey and budget, key issues, concept, technical ideas discussed in it. The course is designed for both students who have no background in economics and have some familiarity with economics. It will go beyond the survey and budget to make students understand the static theories behind the idea presented in the survey.

    The first lecture on economic survey covers the key highlights, approaches, ideas, and issues discussed in the entire survey documents. The lecture explains the idea of nudge economics, trickle-down economic development, export-led growth strategy followed by China and other Asian economies and the key challenges faced by the Indian economy as highlighted in the survey.

    This course is designed to go beyond the text and take you through the nuances of the Economic Survey and Budget.

    Importance of Economic Survey and Budget

    Economic Survey and Budget are the 2 most important documents that you will go through in your exam preparation.

    • Economic Survey discusses all the major government initiatives with the explanation.
    • If we go by the trend, every year around 20 questions in prelims and 7-8 questions in mains are directly related to the Economic Survey and Budget.
    • Questions in prelims paper stress on important phrases, key analysis, technical terms, and data. Hence they have to be thoroughly studied.
    • Almost mandatory to imbibe actual phrases used in Economic Survey to frame answers for Main Examination. for example, if a Question is asked on Banking sector problems in the mains exam, you can always quote the 4R recommendations of the 2016th economic survey.
    • Adding the important and relevant facts and figures significantly enhance your marks in General Studies Paper-III.
    • Deep knowledge of the current policies and programs of the government also help an aspirant to write meaningful Essays in UPSC Civil Services Main Examination. For example, Wiping every tear from every eye “Twin balance sheet problem”, “translating potential into actuality” “ Chakravuyh challenge”, Middle-income trap, etc.
    • According to the new trend economy and the environment is going hand in hand. So questions can come from that perspective also.
    • Many statistics and schemes are asked in CAPF, State psc, bank and SSC exams.

    What we are offering 

    1. 20 hours of Video Lectures Explaining the crux of each chapter in simple and layman language appropriate from an exam point of view. Highlighting the importance of each chapter wrt to prelims examination, mains examination, and interview exam.
    2. Correlate economic survey and budget observations and recommendations with static mains syllabus, for example, last year Economic survey has observed that still Indian families have a preference for Male children, now this chapter could be important for three topics of GS paper 1 which are society of India, Population and related studies and Women and women Organization. This year survey has discussed Nudge theory of behaviour economics to change the mindset of people to spur economic development. The theory is linked to various government initiatives like Swatch Bharat, DBT, Give it up scheme etc.
    3. Special focus on important terms used in the survey like PARA, Chakruvyuh challenge, reverse helicopter, etc. Last year the economic survey has used a term called stigmatized capitalism. Idea is to explain the complex terms with the help of more relatable real-life examples.
    4. Would cover important topics from last 2-3 years economic survey for a precise understanding of this year’s survey
    5. Telegram group for students joining the program where they can discuss any doubts with the respective faculty.
    6. Short and crisp Summary of Economic Survey booklet and
    7. 1 full-length prelims test on economic survey and budget
    8. Handout of 20 probable mains questions with model answers

    What will students gain

    • De-jargonize the documents. Making it easy for students to read the bulky document and precisely point out the important points.
    • Not miss anything important. Specially non-economics students risk
    • Ensure all conceptual details are covered.
