    Hello Dear, You have just completed 12th. You will have to go for graduation. So don't make a time table for UPSC now. Whenever you get some time, do revise all the topics of History, Geography, Political Science that you have read in your school. Now come to the current affairs section. Do read some newspaper, read the important exam oriented issues. This will definitely help you to score a good mark in UPSC.
