Psychology Tips
Some tips for preparation
@vandana
My Marksheet
well....I can't understand the logic of your question. Why would I be
putting the book names if I didn't "ACTUALLY" read them? It's upto you
if you wanna accept my suggestions. No one is forcing you.

And please appreciate the fact that I am trying to take out some time
for you ppl only. And if you do not agree with something, it's fine. But
please do not cast doubts on my intentions.
Thanks.

timelines are personal. You need to make them on your own. You
need to delineate areas and then go about preparing them separately
with specific deadlines.
For eg. in GS you separate the static area from the current area.
Static: Polity, History, Geography, Stats, S&T etc.
Dynamic: Eco, Current national and intl issues.
Master the static part first.
The dynamic part mastery is relatively diff as that keeps changing. So
you need to plan your timelines accordingly.
Thanks

class noets will suffice. you don't have to do classes for GS anywhere.
Just buy notes of any good coaching that you like. vajiram or als or
any other that you like.

you dont have to jot down editorials. get a good CA magazine. That
will help you.
I can't predict the no of questions after removing the statis part.
Every year the pattern changes.

I never read manorama year book. But I can't say that you shouldn't
read it as I have heard that GK is a substantial component of GS
prelims.
I read only 4 5 chapters of IYB. spply related to finance, commerce,
dev schemes etc.

For geography these sources will help you answer most of the
questions. But not all. Your attempt should never be to answer all the
questions. The Q paper of GS is not designed in that manner that you
should be able to answer all questions. You can also read the

The best idea would be to get any good GS coaching's notes. You can
take a xerox from your frnds or buy from the institute.
Then supplement it with dutt sundaram

You should use NCERTs for gen sc. I didn't do anything for gen sc.
I used to leave medieval history mostly as it is too lengthy and doesn't
give substantial returns.
Years are imp, specially for modern India.

For general sc, I can't advise much as I didn't study anything for that.

these questions aare usually unsolvable by most ppl. That's why they
are sometimes given to limit the choice of questions. I am not aware
of the answer.

m'am as i will b appearing for CSE2010, i was planning to join
VajiRam's oct'09 batch.
but now m confused...
is it not fruitful to join vajiram?.
how to prep for GSpaper 2, if one has to do it self? (the India and
world,india interaction with the world where authentic source may be
needed to write on various current issues eco./political)?
are the printed materials/class notes xerox enough to prep. for the
same?
thank u

Last GS Prelims had many questions straight from India Year Book, the
book seems to be quite popular amondg aspirants.
Just wanted to know is it important, a concise version of the same is
available in the market of 200 pages. (original is 1200pg)
A:I refereed the concise version, and that too only for a few imp
chapters.
Shubhra
A. There are some questions you will inevitably have to leave in the
exam. So don't try to cover each aspect of GS with equal gusto.

i have one query regarding Current affirs magazine.
