Preparation Strategy
Background\n\nI come from a humble background in Chalisgaon, Maharashtra. My family has always been supportive of my education, and I was determined to make them proud. I started preparing for the UPSC exam after completing my graduation, and I was clear about my goals.\n\n### Study Plan\n\nMy study plan was quite rigorous. I would wake up early in the morning and start studying at 6 am. I would cover the entire syllabus, including History, Geography, Polity, and Economy. I would also practice previous year's questions and make notes. I would take regular breaks to refresh my mind and avoid burnout.\n\n### Challenges\n\nThe biggest challenge I faced was time management. With a tight study schedule, it was difficult to balance my studies with other activities. I also faced self-doubt and anxiety, which made it difficult to stay motivated. But I never gave up.\n\n### Strategies\n\nI followed a combination of self-study and coaching. I joined a coaching institute, Vajiram and Ravi, which provided me with a structured study plan and regular mocks. I also attended online lectures and webinars to supplement my studies. I made sure to practice consistently and review regularly.\n\n### Interview Experience\n\nThe interview experience was ** nerve-wracking**. I was asked a range of questions, from current affairs to my optional subject, History. I made sure to stay calm and think clearly. I also made sure to highlight my strengths and emphasize my achievements.\n\n### Success\n\nI was overjoyed when I got to know that I had cleared the UPSC exam. It was a dream come true. I attribute my success to my hard work, dedication, and support from my family and friends. Never give up on your dreams.\n\n- Start preparing early and make a study plan.
