Present Challenges in Preparation of UPSC Prelims Exam
Changing Pattern: UPSC has evolved its question-framing pattern,
minimizing the effectiveness of the elimination technique. Adaptation to solving multiple-choice
questions (MCQs) without relying solely on elimination is now crucial.
Insufficient PYQ Resources: Most available Previous Year Question (PYQ) books are narrow
focused, either solely based on UPSC question papers or indiscriminately including all PYQs,
without any consideration for relevance.
Inadequate Practice Material as per present trends: Practice after completing a topic is an
integral part of preparation. It helps in retention and boosts confidence of topic completion.
Aspirants are facing a challenge in finding the material that can assure holistic practice of
topics, based on the present pattern of UPSC.
For example, UPSC emphasizes understanding and applying topics rather than rote learning from
books. A blend of basic books like NCERTs and standard ones like Laxmikanth for Polity, and G.C.
