[Video Analysis + Top 10 Ranks] 24 July 2019 | Prelims Daily with Rakesh Sir
Dear students,
Here’s a link to the Prelims Daily Quiz Analysis Video. Watch this after you have attempted that day’s Prelims Daily questions [on this link]
The full playlist is available here [click2watch]
[WpProQuiz_toplist 190]
We need your comments, likes, and shares on these videos. The aim of this series is to help you revise news via questions. PLEASE spread the videos.
What’s wrong with the student’s study habits?
Only 5% of our students who read news attempt PD. This beats the purpose of reading the news. Even those 5% who attempt PD are unable to get the most out of the initiative. They are either guessing or doing the tests just as a routing activity without engaging in it.
What’s CD doing to maximize your efforts?
Now, we have moved one step further with the launch of analysis videos of Prelims Daily (PD). These videos will reveal the critical nitty-gritty surrounding every PD question. It is an unfortunate reality that no single question can be framed to cover all the possible angles.
The analysis videos will plug this hitherto inevitable gap, thereby making your preparation more methodical, holistic and foolproof. Nothing can be more valuable than experience, and that is precisely what the PD initiative and the analysis videos offer. These will be valuable for both newcomers and senior players in the field.
PS: We want to be 100% certain that the time and energy spent on making these videos is helping you in your UPSC Prelims preparation. So, pls click on the videos, like, share and comment and let us know your thoughts.

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.

Objectives of this course
Economics is not only the most important subject in all 3 tiers of the exam (Prelims, Mains and interview) but also the most feared subject
Rather than understanding the concepts, many aspirants indulge in rot learning and mugging up the concepts but since Economics is not a theoretical subject like History this method does not actually work in the actual exam. The objective of this course is to make Economics as a subject interesting, lucid, layman and enjoyable.
After the end of the course, economics will be on your fingertips and you will be able to apply that knowledge not just in UPSC exam but also in other subsidiary exams like State PSC, RBI Grade B, CAPF, SSC, Bank PO, etc.
The other focus of this course is to strengthen the basics and conceptual clarity of the student so that he can apply that knowledge in understanding the contemporary economic issues.

Difference between Mains Essential Program & Daily AWE Program
Students,
We’ve been posed with this question a lot of times. Though the differences are clear, we understand that new students would want some more clarity.
Mains Essential Program is our UPSC Mains Focused program. Its format is exactly the same as UPSC Mains papers. There are 20 questions to be solved in 2 hours’ time. A lot of time is spent on perfecting the question paper to ensure maximum questions are repeated in the actual exam and on sample solutions with value-added points. Reviews are more elaborate and more time is spent on each answer copy.
The Daily Answer Writing Program Questions are uploaded on a daily basis. By attempting these questions, you get to create your own notes on important topics. These notes will help you immensely when your exams are close. At the same time, the reviews will help you build a solid foundation ensuring your preparedness.
AWE is for you if you know for sure that you need more writing practice – either because you are not comfortable with English or because you are unable to organize your thoughts in a limited time. If you are looking for quality and a more in-depth analysis of your shortcomings, then Mains TS is the way to go.
Admissions for both programs are open.
