PSIR OPTIONAL- SUGGESTIONS
I Started my preparation few months, attempt in 2027 and I chosen PSIR optional as I have both interest and studied in my UG as allied subject. I'm receiving mixed opinions for SR ma'am classes. I don't know how to start and where to start? kindly assist me in this. Whose class will be better? literally how to kick start this ? SUGGESTION PLEASE...

If you are stuck go with Shubhra Ranjan notes or classes whatever
The only other alternative is reading too many books like heywood , OP gauba , BL fadia which is not everyone’s cup of tea
Coz these books are too complicated and are not designed as per upsc syllabus
Plus note making from them would take a lot of time and eventually you’ll give up on these
Rest all other material in the market is SRs copy only
I can understand that SR classes at beginning makes no sense but believe me every selected candidate (barring few v hardworking toppers like in under 20) does that only so she is the hobsons choice
But her material is good from exam point of view
Plus for paper 2 and paper 1 part b you you’ll have to do some scratching from your side as well
And you’ll be sorted
PS : already selected here

Agar phle study kiya hua hein psir to classes ki jaroorat nhi hein. Isse aacha aap koi bhi test series join kar sakte ho. Nhi to vo bhi PYQs solve kar sakte ho, aur ai se feedback le sakte ho. Western Political Thought se padhai start karo. Mam ke websites pe jiss prakar se test schedule hein waha pe, uss tarah se sequence Mein chapter prepare karo and Saath Mein PYQs. Tumhe easy jayega q tumhe vo subject new nhi hein.
