Sajal sir said this about UPSC Mains 2022,”UPSC Mains 2022 was unlike the last few years’ Mains. With very few questions focussing on the conceptual-analytical aspect, it was factual and high on GS static topics based. Apparently, it might seem easy but to contain the answer within 2-3 pages was a tough task in the exam hall. UPSC seemingly moved backward to the late 90s Mains era when such static topic-based questions were asked predominantly.”
For Mains 2023 aspirants, Sajal sir’s suggestion was to focus on value addition on GS topics rather than content addition; practice intensively Mains Previous Year questions; bring creativity & innovation in your answers because even though questions are easy but answers needn’t be simple; collecting and using case studies, examples, etc. to make your answers stand apart.
But we would suggest you have a detailed discussion by filling up the Samanvaya form for 1-1 session, this is FREE
What about Smash Mains?
This is for the third category of students. Smash Mains is a highly personalized and intensive handholding program for the crème-de-la-crème (veterans) amongst UPSC aspirants.
This is for those aspirants who have been able to ‘almost’ clear UPSC and might have appeared for interviews in the past, but due to poor or not up-to-the-mark performance in Mains are unable to sail through.
Sajal sir will personally mentor these aspirants but it is on a strictly invitation basis program.
