    This is the moment we had been planning for the past half a decade.<\/p>\n

    We always<\/em> wanted to do this.<\/p>\n

    Integrating Prelims & Mains Preparation.<\/strong><\/p>\n

    But this is easier said than done.<\/p>\n

    Let’s admit it, each of us is unique. Then why have a monolithic plan for you?<\/p>\n

    Plus integrating Prelims & Mains is not possible without a mentor customized plan for you.<\/p>\n

    Customized – depending on your preparation level and learning abilities.<\/p>\n

    Dear Friends,<\/em><\/p>\n

    We are extremely delighted to announce that we shall be commencing with Eklavya\u00a0 – ForumIAS’s Integrated Prelims-cum-Mains Mentorship Program.<\/p>\n

    The Eklavya<\/strong> Program is for those who are looking for self-study for their Civil Services Preparation, but want to benefit from the guidance of a dedicated Mentor who will be their friend, philosopher and guide through their Civil Services Journey?<\/p>\n

    Do not know where to begin Civil Services Preparation?<\/strong><\/p>\n

    Your mentor will provide you the booklist, curated study material, and a plan which you can follow. Your Mentor will provide you a 7-10 days plan, at the end of which you will be supposed to appear for Benchmark Tests, and can have group and one-on-one discussion with your Mentor.<\/p>\n

    I am a working candidate, will this program be of any use to me?<\/strong><\/p>\n

    If you are a working candidate, this program will be immensely useful to you as you do not have time for daily classes, given your work schedule. With time as a scarce commodity, a mentor will make a suitable plan with realistic deadlines such that you can cover your syllabus and be exam ready with good quality notes – printed, some handwritten, but extreme well-curated and with enough test practice – MCQs and Subjective Answers that will give you the confidence necessary for clearing the exam.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    What is your plan?<\/strong><\/p>\n

    Let’s be realistic. A lot of people screw up this exam because they want to jump into preparation and exam writing just to get a “feel” of it. Neyawn has even written a wonderful post on “How not to exhaust your attempts and screw up preparation<\/a>. And life<\/em>”<\/p>\n

    Our Plan is to give you a realistic timetable for completion of different subjects for both Prelims & Mains such that a sincere and determined candidate should be able to face the examination with a razor-sharp preparation and the confidence that comes with good preparation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

    The above time duration for the syllabus is taken as an apt time for a meticulous student to cover the syllabus who is starting from scratch. Depending on your preparation, this duration can be altered ( reduced, but not increased ) .<\/p>\n

    We believe that if you give our Mentors 50 weeks, we can reach your preparation to a level that can help secure a singe digit rank in this examination.<\/p>\n

    We should know. We have mentored Ranks 1,3,5,7,8,10,11,12,13,14 and more than 900+ students in the past half a decade, spending tens of thousands of hours taking to our students.<\/p>\n

    So for example, if you have written Prelims once, you may not need 8 weeks for Indian Polity. If you have written Mains once in 2017 and want to start again for 2023, you may be able to finish the subjects from 1-8 in about 70% of the time.<\/p>\n

    Is it for students appearing for 2024?<\/strong><\/p>\n

    The program is year neutral and can be taken up by the candidates planning for 2023. The candidate can discuss with a mentor to reduce the preparation time for some subjects, where he thinks that he can complete the syllabus sooner.<\/p>\n

    The idea is that if the student is exam-ready sooner than the mentor’s maximum assigned time, the mentor will only be a facilitator in ensuring the completion of his syllabus on time.<\/p>\n

    In short, the program can be taken up by<\/p>\n
