UPPCS-2021

Hi, I got selected in UPPSC-2019. Would like to offer my two cents. The 2019 paper was relatively less factual. Here’s how I prepared:

History: Did PYQs thoroughly. And rest was the same as UPSC. A number of questions are repeated.

Geography: Again PYQs compilation( Ghatnachakra- it’s available in english)- questions are repeated 

Polity: Lakshmikant. Do memorise some of the important articles. For instance CAG, AG etc..

Economy:  Very basic questions are asked. Would be a cakewalk for those who have covered the basics.

Science and tech: Lucent. A lot of factual questions here.

Current affairs: Completely from YouTube. Worked well for me. Please cover UP specific current affairs as well. Go through some important appointments, sports tournaments etc..

@sstarrr There is a channel that goes by the name – Study for civil services. Please don’t judge by the quality of their content. Just cover their current affairs compilation both, UP specific and general. 
Also, more questions are asked from past six months. At least, that was the case in 2020. So, maybe pay more attention to that.

@SergioRamos I didn’t refer to any other magazines specifically for this (except for vision IAS which was for upsc) and it worked out fine for me. Instead I used to watch videos on YouTube where they cover current affairs through questions. 
Given the amount of time that is left, I’m not even sure if both of these could be done efficiently.
