IAS exam is considered to be a very tough exam in our country, for which students often prefer coaching. By taking coaching, they feel that they will easily clear this exam. But to pass this exam in the true sense, not coaching but a goal setting with time limit and hard work including patience is needed. Some suggestions for you:
First of all, it is important to have complete information about the exam. Understand the syllabus coming in the exam. Gather strategy and study material. Study with concentration. Along with studies, writing is also important. Give mock tests again and again
Read newspapers and magazines daily.
