SFG – How it works 

  • Select Focus Group (SFG) is a small group of students who are selected by ForumIAS every year for coaching them to clear the UPSC Prelims Examination.
  • Every single candidate selected and retained consistently in the group with Top ranks has cleared the Prelims examination in the past.  
  • 100 Students will be selected for the Select Focus Group, through the SFG Entrance Test, who will be required to report at 7AM every day 6 days a week to write an hour-long test based on a pre-planned syllabus, followed by a discussion on the same.
  • Candidates who are unable to make it to the SFG, will be maintained in a Reserve List, who can also write the tests. Candidates who couldn’t clear the cutoff and are unable to make it into both SFG and RLG can register for the 2nd Entrance Test. 
  • Tests are conducted daily and results are provided within 8 hours of the test with Name and Rank list for candidates to evaluate their daily performance. On the basis of ranks, about 50% of bottom-performing students from SFG are migrated to the reserve list on a weekly basis, and an equal number of students from reserve list (RLG) are moved into SFG.  
  • The decision of the management in this regard is final and not subject to dispute. Please note that this migration is done not keeping in mind the overall merit list but moving away bottom 50% from SFG and picking up an equal number of people from RLG. 
  • Thus those who may be getting more than RLG students, but are bottom 50 in SFG will be moved to RLG.  
  • Every month, the bottom 20% or so non-performing students are eliminated from the program to maintain the quality of competition.  
  • All candidates writing the CSE 2022 are eligible to apply for the entrance test.  
  • This year we introduce some changes as to how we conduct the SFG exam. Please note that changes that we bring are always in response to the examination pattern, the student feedback, and our own learning with respect to how to best enable a serious candidate to clear the exam.   

    Application Procedure  

    • The program will commence from 7th March 2022, admission to which will be entrance-based. The Entrance Test will be conducted on 20thFebruary 2022 in both online and offline mode. The results of the Entrance Test will be announced by 22ndFebruary 2022.  

    • Admission to the SFG and RLG are based on the rank of the candidate in the merit list of the SFG Entrance Test. Students can apply for the program by registering for the Entrance Test by paying a fee of Rs. 500+ GST. Candidates can register by visitinggo.forumias.com/sgfL2. The candidate must appear for the entrance test on the designated date and time, subsequent to which he/she will be admitted to the Select Group or the Reserve List.   

    • 100 students will be selected for SFG - 50 from online mode and 50 from students who gave the test in offline mode in Delhi and Patnacenter. The remaining students will be selected for RLG. Students can switch from online to the offline mode or vice versa before attempting the first test. The ranklist of online and offline students will be published separately. 

    • The candidate must pay the program fee as per the group he/she is allocated.

                                          Q 23. Widening of tax slab , can anyone explain it better ? other than the explaination because it doesn't make sense to me. Widening doesn't mean that only lower slabs will be expanded, it may lead to more taxation if upper slabs are widened.

                                          Widening tax slabs here means widening range of tax-slabs i.e. 0% ceiling raised from 2.5L to 3.0L.

                                          Though I also made error while interpreting this, as I also understood it as widening means increasing rates of slabs. But former makes more sense as widening can only mean widening of ranges not % value itself.

                                          Bhai@Wings_Of_Fire, I seriously wish you clear this exam with top rank in this attempt. And I will not accept anything less than 170 in the actual Prelims for you. I also wish you become Rank 1 overall. You are God level buddy.

                                          Good Luck👍🏻
