Words from the Chief Mentor

I want to be an IAS officer, I want to be an IPS officer, I love to be in IFS, I want to take part in the economic policy framing of my country being in IRS. These are the most common words of the aspirants who shape their DREAM in the attire of this Civil Services. This is the age of connectivity where we can gather all the information with just one finger touch. People start to scribble here and there, suggestions have been got poured incessantly, person with or without experience attempts to write the gospel in the mind of the aspirants with their own story, whether it works or not that doesn’t matter, soothsayers predict, self-proclaimed ‘gurus’ assure, advertisements propose guarantees, vibrant colours of social media keep us aligned with the ‘casino engineering‘. Aspirants purchase books, study materials, get enrolled in the coaching for the preparation of Civil Services Examination with one DREAM– let become IAS, let become IPS, let to be in IFS, keep spending day and night hours after preparation but in most of the cases the results come out negative, the webpage of UPSC keeps constantly blinking with “Not Qualified” with a minuscule number of “Qualified”. The difference between these “Qualified” and “Not Qualified” gets decided on a very few things but INFODEMICS plays the major.

Gone are the days of traditional preparation for the success of UPSC Civil Services Examination. Since the year of 2011, UPSC has reformed a lot regarding the IAS examination pattern. Firstly, in the year 2011, it changed the pattern of the Preliminary Examination and then in the year 2013 it changed the Main Examination pattern also — so the question pattern for the both stages in continuation with some new evolution in each successive year. Personality Test has been compassed around the very nuclear self of the candidate. If anyone analyses this changing pattern of the UPSC Civil Services Examination, one thing is crystal clear i.e. the UPSC is emphasising more on a candidate’s overall approach or aptitude for the entry in IAS, IPS, IFS etc rather than his specialisation on a specific subject or mediocre understanding in a few. This examination has been changed from the ‘Optional Papers Centric’ to ‘GS centric’ though the nomenclature remained the same. The cut off marks for each stages of this IAS examination has been  surging day by day, sometimes abruptly plummeting too (especially the Preliminary cut off since 2018) and as a consequence the competition is getting tougher to toughest.

So, what should be the success ‘mantra’ for a candidate who aspires to be an IAS, IFS, IPS or IRS officer. A multi-fold strategic spirited approach can work as the saviour. By the side of building up the concepts, one has to know the art by sitting in the IAS examination hall how he can tick right the questions or can write it down as per the demand of the UPSC. For this a galvanised strategy is required. As the IAS syllabus is vast enough, interlinking of thoughts of different subjects in a nutshell is warranted and by the side one has to know what have to read and what not to be. Just mugging up is not going to work in IAS anymore. Here comes the need for ‘specialised guidance’ not the pseudo one,  so that the Civil Services Examination’s changing pattern can be counter balanced with a smooth landing on the desired zero spot.

Of course, it is possible for an aspirant to crack IAS, if he can make the unison of STRATEGY, PERSEVERANCE and RIGHT GUIDANCE. TIME IS THE RAREST GIFT, accept it gleefully and use it prudently. Our best wishes are here for all the IAS, IFS, IPS, IRS aspirants. Be in LOVE WITH UPSC, be in love with IAS, be the person of GOLDEN HEART WITH LION’S COURAGE AND APPETITE, face the UPSC Civil Services being a WARRIOR, success will be yours. LONG LIVE POTENTIALITY. 

Best of Wishes,

Deb Mukherjee, Chief Mentor, IMPULSE IAS
