Read about Webinar
Every UPSC aspirant knows that Current Affairs can make or break their preparation, yet most aspirants spend hours every day consuming content without direction. The truth is, you don’t need more sources, you need better filtering and integration.
In this session, I will show you how 150 well curated news items a month are enough to cover the entire UPSC spectrum, from Prelims to Mains to Essays, if approached the right way.
This is not about reading everything under the sun. It’s about mastering the art of selective depth.
Shikhar Sir, Founder Civilsdaily IAS
What I will cover (practical, no fluff):
1. The 150 Rule for UPSC 2026
- How just 5 carefully analysed news pieces a day can help you outperform those reading 20.
- How to identify themes instead of chasing daily headlines.
- How to separate “exam relevant” from “information overload.”
2. Turning News into Notes, Not Noise
- The 3 step note making process to convert news into microtheme notes.
- How to link every important news item to GS papers, PYQs, and Mains ready ideas.
- Real examples of how rankers turn single articles into 3–4 answer writing points.
3. Current Affairs Integration Across Prelims & Mains
- How to map factual news for Prelims and analytical issues for Mains.
- How to connect editorials, schemes, and data into one cohesive theme bank.
- The “Microtheme Loop” by using one topic across GS 2, GS 3, and Essay.
4. The Civilsdaily Way — Smart Coverage, Smart Revision
- How our editorial curation brings UPSC relevance to every story.
- Building revision friendly monthly compilations without burnout.
- How to ensure recall in the final 60 days before Prelims 2026.
5. Avoiding the Common Current Affairs Traps
- Wasting hours on random telegram PDFs and YouTube summaries.
- Ignoring conceptual linkages between subjects.
- Not revising or integrating notes into mocks and writing practice.
