5 UPSC Study Hacks for Prelims & Mains Success

1. Limited Sources, Multiple Revisions: One book, 4–5 revisions beats 5 books, one read.

2. Active Notes, Not Passive Reading: Convert every topic into Q–A form for Prelims.

3. Current Affairs Integration: Link current issues with static subjects (Polity, Economy, Geography).

4. Daily 1 Answer Writing Habit: Even 10–15 mins daily builds Mains edge.

5. Mistake Ledger for Prelims: Track why options were wrong—UPSC loves traps.
