the book on GS4

I have made a sincere effort to make my notes available to everyone in the civil services community. All of these are available on this telegram channel.

A lot of you gave me some constructive feedback, that the handwritten notes are not very easy to read and take very long to decode (my handwriting is terrible 😅) and that the structures of answer writing are not clear. This was the reason for me to digitise and further structure my notes digitally and make them available to you guys in the form of books.

Now that all the books are now available in the market I would like to tell you that these books represent 5 years of hard work, and i sincerely hope that none of you have to grapple with this exam for that long as it can often get very tiring and demotivating. This was the primary intention behind writing these books. 

I hope all of you can benefit from these and can clear the exam as soon as possible :)

I'm very happy to announce that the book on GS4 is available now. In my experience GS4 is a very paradoxical paper, where often people score high marks without studying too much and very often people score very less despite studying a lot. Unlike the other GS papers, the GS4 ethics paper does not have a set pattern or material that one can study and remember. It requires innovation, structural thinking and the right perspective.

In my opinion, structural thinking, using relevant examples and reading the right sources is something that is very important to score well in ethics. I have personally suffered due to referring to generic sources and books in my second attempt when I had scored 82 marks only!

I have also made a video with Dr. Shivin discussing the strategy for ethics and I'll attach the link of the video here again.
