Dear All,

We are now inviting applications for RankForge – for Civil Services Examination 2027.

Rankforge is a two phase program for Civil Services Examination 2027.

The two phase are as below

Mains Phase : In this phase [October – December 15th – about 2.5 months ], we cover GS Paper 1,2,3,4 & Essay through classes and Tests. Tests will include 3/5 days a week mini tests and weekly/every 10 days / as modules finish – MGP test. Top performing students will be graded in 3 groups as fees as per one’s grade will be applicable for the next phase. Bottom performing candidates will be required to leave the campus. Candidates who will be assigned group 1, 2 or 3 – will also have the option of dropping out at this stage and continue for the prelims phase from home/ Delhi.

Prelims Phase : Prelims phase will begin from mid of December. This is basically an SFG residential phase where we will have daily classes + internal campus wide SFG tests till Feb. After Feb we shall be part of all India SFG and Simulators Tests. CA classes for prelims will be taken throughout the duration of the program.

Note: For Prelims phase, separate entrance test registration is required. After completion of Mains phase, students either vacate the campus or register for Prelims specific phase and extend the stay in campus.

Clarification

  1. So far we have had only one pre-cum-mains batch of FRC whose result has come. We have had 10+ selections from it – which includes – Zinnia, Abhishek, Devika, Dr Akanksha ( from previous FRC batch)
  2. We did not have a pre-cum-mains batch in 2025 because we closed for Mains as campus was being built. Kindly do not believe internet rumours and inputs that FRC did not have have any results from 2025 batch because there was no Mains FRC 2025 Batch – reason : campus was being constructed.
  3. Our 2nd FRC pre-cum-mains batch has written this year prelims and Mains. In this batch also we invited people who had never cleared prelims to join us. We were able to get 70% selections from Top performing students ( Top 100) and about 55% from from 200 Students. If we count every student from the campus – every 3rd candidate in the campus wrote Mains – this count includes those students who did not study, took classes or tests.

Eligibility

  1. Candidate must have taken at least two attempts at Civil Services and should have at least two attempts left. We believe that if the candidate has basic language skills and school level discipline. We have seen people rise from not clearing prelims to getting a TOP rank in Civils multiple times before.
  2. The ideal candidate for the program is one who has not cleared prelims before, as continuing through the prelims phase will help write and ace the first Mains.
  3. At the time of writing this communication, seats for women candidates are already full. Only limited seats for Men is available. Admissions are likely to close within 72 hours.
