Thinking parallel in UPSC journey

Think Parallel not Sequel.

This is the strategy that my organization recently encouraged everyone to follow. Just as multiple ideas harmoniously converge to drive the success of projects, this strategy holds equally promising for the journey of UPSC aspirants.

Thinking parallel in UPSC journey :

Simultaneous Preparation: Prepare for all three stages concurrently, shattering the notion of waiting for prelims clearance before diving into mains preparation.

Walking in Parallel with PYQs: Let previous year questions illuminate your path. Walk alongside the wisdom they offer, aligning your preparation with their insights.

Mock Tests and Self-Evaluation: Execute your preparation through continuous test. Do not wait for day to come when syllabus is finished.

Managing Uncertainty with Parallel Plans: Working on parallel plans (Plan B) to navigate unforeseen challenges. Embrace other areas of interest and skills, forging a diverse arsenal of capabilities.

Nurturing the Mind and Body: Pursue hobbies and extracurricular activities to fortify mental and physical well-being. These parallel endeavors will fuel your journey towards resilience and balance.
