Sometimes, slow is fast. Life is not supposed to be a unidimensional race. It’s an event to collaborate, chill and find meaning all this while!

Never be despondent and never take up a victim’s mindset.

Together we’ll conquer all challenges by responding to the problem statement.

PS: Nothing exam worthy is today’s newspaper!

IFoS Mains are done and dusted. I’m sure the Sherlocking Modules as well as our free insights would have tremendously helped you, and hopefully your marksheet will be the true testament for that.

Also I see some people telling me how optionals in IFoS were difficult this time. Know that itself a competitive exam.

Plus, most of the aspirants unfortunately want to live with a defeatist mindset inculcated by the toxic ecosystem. They just want to find reasons why “Success will never come to them”, thereby further attracting such a situation, completing the vicious cycle.

You’ve done your best, now let almighty take over from here. Now is the time to either make an exit strategy from the exam if given 3+ attempts, or get back to the drawing board after a week’s rest. Feel free to ping if any support needed.

Wishes!

A lot of students waste significant years in this exam by running behind pirated videos, competing with others on ‘sitting hours’ and in locating fancy study material. But just like in life, even in UPSC, quality and right guidance trumps vague misaligned efforts.

Even AI nowadays is being seen as a be all end all. AI can only ‘amplify’ what you know, not create the right direction from thin air!

Why AI like any tool, is only an aid, not the panacea

Course Update:

As always, Sherlocking Modules not only come with a 2yr validity, but also 2yr free updates, atleast for now.

A lot of our past students have been surprised when they realised that the new updates are included in the validity.

However, due to re-organisation and changing contracts with the app providers, the situation will change by the end of the year for new admissions by then. If you were contemplating to enrol, there will be no better to enrol than now!

Around the end of the year, prices will undergo an upward revision, we’ll have different pricing structures for different validities and so on. We’re sure you’ll take the best call for the preparation.

For any followup queries, feel free to reach out to us on @helpdeskupsc.

Aim to succeed, don’t keep finding reasons for potential failure.

Young aspirants, who have inherited anxiety and low self worth from the society and the toxic prep ecosystem often think:

-“Agar pattern change hogaya toh?”
-“Main Paper mein sab bhoolgaya toh?”
-“Sab zindagi mei mujhse aage nikal gaye toh?”

All of these constitute ‘worry’. Stick to the process and let almighty’s blessings take over.

Always feel free to take my assistance for anything here.

Nothing exam worthy in today’s newspaper but this was, well unexpected in the temple of democracy. Whether someone was indifferent enough to actually bring this with them or whether it was planted, either ways it should have been unacceptable. The follow up justification from both sides was more funny than tragic.

Anyway, the point of sharing this was - “ While you’re worried and self loathing about 1-2 wasted days in the prep, ‘eminent’ individuals are unmoved even after committing such acts. Develop a little bit of thick skin with a healthy serving of self esteem. Have righteousness, succeed so that you’re not held hostage to other’s standards your entire life.”
