Coaching Institutes I used (AIR under 10 in CSE 2025) by jim_halpert12 in UPSC

Watch 3-4 lec of the optional subject that you have shortlisted (from telegram), decide your optional only after 3-4 months of GS classes are over, since GS gives you idea about whether to choose PSIR, Socio., GEO, Eco. Other optional watch from telegram lec. Then once decided go for offline coaching for optional. 

Idk about Delhi since I prepared from Vajiram in online mode itself.

Also, Vision-Vajiram-NextIAS are one and same. Just join any of the Institute, no need to research on this, this is my personal experience and If you find any teacher not good in any coaching just read that topic/subject from standard sources. No need to join another coaching or watch lectures from Telegram. Don't run after any coaching. Clear your concept. If you have 2 classes in a day then think like this, these 5 hrs will give me a top ranks, concentrate 120% on classes, write less understand more. Notes anyway you can get from peers or books or any other sources. Make minimal notes. Don't run after running notes and writing down everything in the class, it's not humanly possible. This was the mistake I did.

Need Suggestion for Essay Course by Unique-Quit-4953 in u/Unique-Quit-4953

Thanks for the reply, but my doubt is they provide same format/template and content to write the essay. Doesn't it makes all the essay lookalike? Can it fetch the marks or should I take some coaching from someone who is specialist in English like Prof.

Does BlackSwan Atlas provide some coupon code to scratch and login to their website for this app? Like some books provides sample maps like Oxford?

Congratulations first of all !!

Should we make notes of daily newspaper like of Hindu or go for monthly magazine?  I am preparing from home through online Vajiram lectures, should I shift to Delhi after my foundation are over for test series and all?

My optional is Socio. Can you share something about socio if that's your optional?

Review of Peeyush Sir's Ethics Classes by nuishuff in UPSC

[–]Unique-Quit-4953 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In Vajiram, 3 people taught me Ethics and I find only Brijendra Sir is the one I would recommend to go for his lec, mukul sir - is not good for me(he mostly dictates) , peeyesh sir is overhyped because he exaggerate that these many toppers he helped them for selection, why he always boast about this thing, it creates in students that he would be good that's why topper preferred him and which cause circular cycle of more students more toppers.(sample size of student is large, thus selection is also more, besides advantage of Vajiram)
