Few days back after I decide not to subscribe for the second phase of SFG program as it was not in sync with my plan, I found out that my access to the previous tests has been revoked.
On inquiry with@farejul I was informed that the program was subscription based and if not subscribed for the second month my access would be revoked. This is a new policy regarding which we were nowhere informed. I still have access to my 2020 and 2021 SFG. So why such sudden shift.
Farej sir helped me out to an extent but it was not sufficient as I will not be able to analyse and compare my past attempt to plug in my loop holes.
I had relied solely on SFG tests for revision in last bout but sudden policy change is not comprehensible. This is very distressing. Please help!
This information was not clearly mentioned at the time of enrolling. I went ahead with the previous experience of SFG and MGP etc. where my access for the paid courses continued.
Secondly I am not demanding for access to new tests but the tests I have paid for. Every test series or course in ForumIas is subscription based. I had no such experience with previous SFGs.
Also being an online student who has no hard copy of question paper or knowledge of my attempts, isn't it discriminatory with respect to offline students. The only tangible thing from this course was digital access to my tests.
Regarding importance of subjects like economy and S&T. I agree with your views and am working on those subjects with a slightly different approach after analysing my past performance in prelims, test series and SFG L1.
So I request you to kindly restore access to my attempted tests as there was information asymmetry regarding the policy.

Sorry, There has been no policy change. This is a subscription based program, where you cannot pay the full fee at one go, and course access is removed when you do not renew.
Also, we feel that the more important subjects - from which variable, non-book based questions come are in the second month. It is anyway detrimental. Everyone wants to study Polity, Economy. The real tests are Env, SnT etc that differentiate the students.
