Read what IAS Benjo P Jose, AIR 59 has to say about his Mains Prep
If you feel the only way to clear Mains is to memorize tonnes and tonnes of data and facts, then this session is for you.
Brainstorming or answer thinking is a unique approach to UPSC Mains. It involves generating points for the answer while understanding both the explicit and implicit demands of the question, rather than simply writing from pre-prepared notes on the topic. Past toppers like IAS Gaurav Agarwal and IAS Pratyush Pandey have emphasized this approach.
It moves away from traditional methods of making notes, revising them multiple times, and writing numerous tests, which can often be overwhelming for aspirants. Instead, the focus shifts to brainstorming PYQs. With practice, the time taken to think of every answer gradually reduces. This approach emphasizes interlinking points with other topics in the GS papers, making it a more creative and dynamic method for UPSC Mains answer writing.
IAS Benjo Sir, AIR 59 this year, is probably the first topper in many years to have successfully used this approach again. This method will help you make your notes more compact, adding creativity and logic to your UPSC preparation. Join this masterclass to learn the art of structured brainstorming and how to integrate it with your existing study routine. The session will be held on 21st August, Wednesday at 7 PM.
It will be a 45-minute webinar, post which we will open up the floor for all kinds of queries that a beginner or veteran aspirant must have. No questions are taboo.

About Civilsdaily Mentorship Philosophy:
At Civilsdaily, we treat Mentorship as a specialization. Not every Mains or interview candidate can be a mentor. Most such mentors will suggest cosmetic changes and will only help you evolve slowly. It is easy to find comfort in sentences like ‘every topper is different’ and’ they have their own path’. Finding what’s different about you and then figuring out your own path is why Mentorship is essential.
We walk the talk by helping you craft your own way of preparation. A method that enhances your probability of qualifying UPSC-CSE in a single attempt. We give you that near-perfect certainty. Delivering this consistently to hundreds of aspirants (now rankers) in the past was challenging. We still stick to it and keep getting better at it with each passing year.
At CD, we understand the science and the art of everything UPSC. If you have a problem, we will sit with you and find a solution. If that doesn’t work, then we try solution 2. Eventually, we will make sure you end up making progress. What’s the point of any content, program, or mentorship without progress? This is precisely why aspirants trust they have the best shot at clearing the exam with Civilsdaily.
We invest a significant amount of time, effort, and energy into creating lectures, notes, and tests, understanding your needs as an aspirant. We take this responsibility seriously because, ultimately, your future depends on it.
The heart of the Civilsdaily platform is the Yearlong Mentorship Program. For years, aspirants have enrolled here because they couldn’t find such depth and passion towards quality content and Mentorship anywhere. Their search inevitably ends at Civilsdaily. Enrollment in these programs and Mentorship also makes us accountable to aspirants for the value they get.
In the past few years, we’ve worked quietly in the background with hundreds of aspirants; many now serve as IAS, IPS, IFS and more. We are very proud of what we’ve achieved. Overwhelmed by quick fixes, content overload, and messy timetables that never work? Join us as we take you through a realistic and relatable roadmap for UPSC 2026 preparation.
In this masterclass, you will get:
- A 45-minute deep dive on how to plan your UPSC strategy from the start to the end.
- How do first-attempt IAS Rankers get the most out of their one year prep?
- Insider tips that only the top IAS and IPS rankers know and apply to get rank.
By the end, you’ll have razor-sharp clarity on how to apply this methodology without the need to memorize a lot of content.
