- 23 Prelims PYQs Practice Tests (1100 MCQs): You will solve 23 high-quality prelims PYQ tests comprising over 1,100 questions in total. These include not only UPSC CSE past year questions but also carefully selected questions from related exams (NDA, CDS, CAPF, etc.) to broaden your exposure. Every test comes with detailed solutions for thorough learning.
- UPSC Pattern Question Mix: Each prelims mock test includes 50 GS questions + 5 CSAT questions, mirroring the UPSC pattern. This integrated approach means you practice both General Studies and aptitude skills together, so you’re well-prepared for the actual exam format.
- Notes & Current Affairs: Alongside tests, you receive static notes for each subject and Kalam Golden Pages (KGP) – distilled revision booklets for important topics – to strengthen your fundamentals. For current affairs, the Current Edge workbooks and K-Snippet 365 daily summaries ensure you stay updated on relevant news and can tackle current events questions with ease.
Mains Module:
- 40 Sectional Tests ( Including 5 Essay Tests): You will attempt 35 Sectional Mains PYQ tests (each with 10 questions) that cover every part of the GS Mains syllabus in manageable chunks – from Ethics case studies to World History – so that you practice writing on all possible areas. Additionally, 5 dedicated Essay PYQ tests help you master essay writing through diverse themes. These tests are scheduled strategically over the course to reinforce learning as you cover topics.
- 5 Full-Length Mains Mock Exams: After the Prelims stage, the program includes 5 full-length GS Mains mock tests (with the full set of questions as in actual exam) to simulate the real exam experience. These comprehensive exams tie everything together, building your stamina and exam temperament for the full-length UPSC Mains papers.
- Marks Improvement Booklets (MIB): For key General Studies topics (e.g., Society, Governance, etc.), you’ll get MIBs – special booklets packed with enriched content: high-yield facts, examples, case studies, and expert analyses. MIBs serve as value-add supplements to your answers, helping you incorporate unique points that fetch extra marks and thus directly contributing to marks improvement in your answers.
- Model Answers & Evaluation: Every test – whether a 10-question sectional or a full mock – is accompanied by model answers and followed by detailed evaluation. You’ll compare your answers with model answers to identify gaps, and discuss one-on-one with mentors in face-to-face evaluation sessions. This answer writing & evaluation cycle ensures that with each test, you learn how to write better answers in content and presentation.
- Personalized Mentorship till Mains: Throughout the program, you remain under the wing of mentors (including CSE toppers) who track your progress. They provide tailored advice on improving your writing style, help you refine your study strategy, and even guide you in effective note-making for optional crossover topics. The mentorship continues up to UPSC Mains, so you have expert support every step of the way.
All tests can be taken in flexible mode – you can write them from home or at the academy – and still get personal feedback. Both online and offline modes are available to suit your needs.
