The mismanagement of time for any UPSC aspirant, whether a working professional or a full-time one, is caused by a lack of understanding of how to divide time according to the priority and relevance of the syllabus.
What is mismanagement of time?
It has 3 dimensions
- Spend a lot of time on Prelims only
- Starting Answer writing and Optional Subject after prelims
- Not following a segregated daily approach
Examinees are often advised to devote at least 12 months to prepare for the civil service examinations. But, these 12 months even may run short if you don’t have a proper/flexible timetable. The importance of planning, discipline, and consistency for UPSC preparation comes from making a timetable and planning in a manner that is balanced and integrated, which means it should include UPSC prelims, Mains, and Optional preparation.
You mustn’t waste time if you have limited time and still wish to pass the exam because the syllabus is comprehensive and often open-ended, it needs bright covering with a select few sources.
