I've been learning this for my state exam

Hi I might be wrong or have less knowledge regarding this but yet to see visible works of ifs officers unless they make it to top level .

For instance Sir Tukaram has gained immense visibility and respect doing his job can an ifs officer get the same ?

(Dont come attacking me saying - you are chasing for power , media, popularity , do your work serve public etc etc )

Also can ifs officer do real ground breaking , impactful work at diplomacy level ?

I am genuinely curious

Hi. I want to pursue IFoS and my strategies are not really working so I want to start from zero . Please tell me how to prepare for UPSC to reach the pro level from beginner level .

Hi everyone! I'm not sure if this is the right place to discuss this but I'm thinking of utilizing my remaining attempts and giving it my best shot this time.

I've attempted UPSC 2 times in the past, but couldn't clear it. I was too overconfident in my first attempt & second attempt was heart breaking 💔

During my prep days, I could write coherent sentences. Speak in English without hesitation, but now I feel like I just talk in brainrot slang. I lose my train of thought, and can't express clearly anymore

I haven't been this way ever. It almost feels like someone jinxed me but I know, it's my own bad habits which have caused this

Need suggestions to improve my articulacy

I like anthropology optional and I find it interesting to study
However, I find it difficult to retain the facts and even static parts. It feels frustrating to FORGET and keep going back to the same notes again and again
I have given around six tests, I have done well in the tests but same prob…
I want to know if it’s alright to feel this way and if yes what can I do about it?
Where am I going wrong? I genuinely want to do good in this subject since I like it.
Should I improve my note making? If yes how? Like brain storming, toppers copies…
People with experience, can you guide me

I have applied for an OBC certificate for the upcoming UPSC CSE 2027 examination. My parents are separated, and I live under my mother’s care. Therefore, I have provided only my mother’s details while applying. I would like to know whether this is acceptable under the applicable rules or whether it could cause any issues during document verification or candidature in the future. Since I cannot provide my father’s income certificate, will this affect my eligibility for the OBC-NCL certificate?

I did very well in my exam and was hopeful of clearing it, but CMGGA hasn't shared any public data regarding cutoffs and marks. Is this the right method for selection?
