Study Plan

My journey began with a solid foundation in the basics - history, geography, and polity. I spent countless hours reading and revising, making sure I understood the concepts thoroughly. I also joined a coaching institute to get guidance and support.

Challenges

One of the biggest challenges I faced was balancing my studies with other responsibilities. I had to juggle my job, family, and social life while preparing for the exam. It was tough, but I managed to stay focused and motivated.

Strategies

The interview experience was exhilarating and intimidating at the same time. I was nervous but tried to stay calm and composed. The panel asked me a mix of general and subject-specific questions, and I did my best to answer them confidently.

Success

Securing rank 9 was a dream come true. It was the result of my hard work, determination, and perseverance. I learned that with the right mindset and strategies, anything is possible.
