FAQ: resuming UPSC prep after 2 years ago

- My Age- 28 yrs Gave 3 attempts of UPSC CSE in 2018(with somewhat self preparation through basic sources), 2019( casual attempt) & 2021(with coaching for PSIR optional and a 3 months unacademy subscription).
- Switched to banking exams, to secure a job at first place(I have reached till interviews). Want to restart prep for UPSC CSE as approaching age limit. But still I have no job & currently continuing prep for Banking along with SSC CGL.
- Whenver I think of restarting prep, self doubt emerges and I think is it possible for me to prepare for 3 exams simultaneously to which I get answer as a NO. But again age limit comes in mind and I think I have to restart ASAP.
- Pls guide me sir as to what I should do wrt UPSC. Should I start it right now or first concentrate on getting into bank job or ssc job?

Ans. 55 day= approx 8 weeks left before Next UPSC prelims.
- Around one week per subject of GS. (His/geo/environment/eco/polity/sci/current/CSAT)
- you are saying that you are left the UPSC preparation after 2021, but the prelims became tougher in 2000 2223.
- I suggest you to go through last two years papers thoroughly and do self assessment whether I can polish my preparation for each of them subject within this one week per subject timeframe.
- if not, then focus other plan-B exam for 2024 cycle. And give dedicated UPSC attempt in 2025.
- best wishes.

कुल मिलाकर पिछले दो साल के पेपर आप देख लो, क्या अब हर विषय के लिए प्रेलिम्स से पहेले क़रीब एक हफ़्ता ही बचा है तो क्या उन विषयों की तैयारी में इतना पॉलिश चढ़ सकता है? अगर हाँ तो दे दो एटेम्प। वरना अगले साल करो। - best wishes.
