Résumé

TLDRVideoen tilbyr en strategisk tilnærming til å forberede seg til UPSC preliminær eksamen i 2025, ved å vurdere spørsmålsanalysen fra 2024 eksamenspapiret. Den gir en kortfattet liste over 7 til 8 bøker som er nødvendige for forskjellige emner, noe som gjør det lettere for aspirantene å revidere og forberede seg effektivt. For politikk anbefales M. Laxmikant, mens for geografi er det foreslått 11. klasses NCRTs om Physical Geography og Indian Physical Environment. Når det gjelder historie, anbefales gamle NCRT-bøker og Spectrum. I økonomi og miljø blir nåværende saker fremhevet som viktige, og det er foreslått å lese spesifikke NCRT kapitler. Videoen understreker prinsippet om "less is more" og oppfordrer til mer effektiv revisjon gjennom mindre, men mer målrettet materiale.

A retenir

Chronologie

  • 00:00:00 - 00:05:00

    I videoen diskuterer foreleseren betydningen av å begrense antall bøker som trengs for å bestå UPSC prelims eksamen i 2025. Mange studenter mislykkes fordi de ikke klarer å revidere det de har lest på grunn av det store antallet bøker de prøver å dekke. Foreleseren fremmer filosofien "less is more" og foreslår at hvis man mestrer 7 til 8 nøye utvalgte bøker, kan man klare eksamen lettere. For eksempel, ved å bare mestre en bok, M Lakshmikanth, kunne man ha svart på alle 15 spørsmål fra politikapitlet i 2024-eksamenen.

  • 00:05:00 - 00:14:48

    Foreleseren gir spesifikke bokanbefalinger for forskjellige fag: For politikk anbefales "M Lakshmikanth"; for geografi, to spesifikke klasse 11 NCERT-bøker. Historiefaget antas å være krevende med mange tilgjengelige bøker, men foreleseren anbefaler bare tre: to gamle NCERT-bøker for eldre og middelalderhistorie og Spectrum for moderne historie. Raske tips inkluderer å fokusere på bokser, bilder og spørsmål i slutten av kapitlene i nye NCERT-er. Den viktige ideen er å fokusere på minimalt lesestoff med maksimalt utbytte, samtidig som man prioriterer aktuell kunnskap fremfor tradisjonell, spesielt i raskt endrede fag som økonomi og miljø.

    year or two years is because they are
  • 00:00:47
    not able to revise what they read and
  • 00:00:50
    why they are not able to revise because
  • 00:00:52

    through the questions all the 100
  • 00:01:46
    questions one thing which you can easily
  • 00:01:49
    infer what is that inference that 15 out
  • 00:01:54
    of 15 questions okay 15 out of 15
  • 00:01:57
    questions if you had mastered only one
  • 00:02:00
    book one book Just One Source M lakmi
  • 00:02:03
    Kant you could have solved 15 out of 15
  • 00:02:05
    questions okay so out of all the
  • 00:02:09
    subjects one subject which you need to
  • 00:02:11
    Master first and one book which you need
  • 00:02:13
    to Master first is the m lakian book
  • 00:02:15
    because this is the most rewarding this
  • 00:02:18
    is the most rewarding there is one more
  • 00:02:20
    subject where also most of the questions
  • 00:02:22
    have come from the ncrs and there are
  • 00:02:24
    limited ncrs but still there you need to
  • 00:02:27
    read two three books here you need to
  • 00:02:29
    read only one book and you could have
  • 00:02:31
    got 15 questions okay so guys the cut
  • 00:02:33
    off was around 93 marks so around 46 to
  • 00:02:37
    47 questions and guys remember 15
  • 00:02:40
    questions you could have got easily from
  • 00:02:42
    just one book so that is the first book
  • 00:02:45
    here like this I'm going to give you
  • 00:02:47
    entire list of only seven to eight books
  • 00:02:49
    just next 15 minutes you will get this
  • 00:02:51
    list okay why because guys what happens
  • 00:02:55
    is that if you start reading multiple
  • 00:02:57
    number of sources multiple number of
  • 00:02:59
    books in the end you are unable to
  • 00:03:01
    revise and that's the reason even after
  • 00:03:04
    doing a lot of hard work you do not get
  • 00:03:06
    very good scores because I'm telling you
  • 00:03:08
    from my own experience of scoring the
  • 00:03:10
    highest marks in the prelims examination
  • 00:03:12
    okay by reading only limited sources
  • 00:03:15
    multiple number of times you can score
  • 00:03:17
    very high marks okay do not run after
  • 00:03:19
    multiple resources second guys you know
  • 00:03:22
    18 questions were from geography and
  • 00:03:25
    here also guys let me tell you that most
  • 00:03:27
    of the questions 90% of the questions
  • 00:03:30
    means more than 15 questions were
  • 00:03:32
    directly from the ncrs and that two guys
  • 00:03:35
    you need to read only two ncrs for
  • 00:03:38
    geography also physical geography book
  • 00:03:41
    class 11th fundamentals of physical
  • 00:03:43
    geography and Indian environment Indian
  • 00:03:45
    physical environment class 11th book
  • 00:03:47
    only these two books okay there are more
  • 00:03:50
    number of books there is human geography
  • 00:03:52
    there is economic geography then there
  • 00:03:54
    is class 9th book there is class 10th
  • 00:03:56
    book class 8th book 7 sixth book but if
  • 00:04:00
    you want to read limited number of books
  • 00:04:02
    from where maximum questions are coming
  • 00:04:05
    Guys these are the two ncrt books only
  • 00:04:08
    for geography these two books I'm
  • 00:04:10
    talking about see again and again I'm
  • 00:04:11
    saying here I'm going to give you the
  • 00:04:14
    minimum list the minimum list if you
  • 00:04:17
    want to read the minimum and still want
  • 00:04:19
    to crack the prelims examination guys
  • 00:04:21
    for all other subjects like irn scheme
  • 00:04:23
    Science and Tech economy environment the
  • 00:04:28
    questions were not from the the standard
  • 00:04:30
    Books Okay most of the questions I'm
  • 00:04:32
    talking about you will get one or two
  • 00:04:34
    questions even from Science and Tech
  • 00:04:35
    came from the ncrs but hardly one
  • 00:04:38
    question in economy also hardly two
  • 00:04:40
    three questions most of the questions
  • 00:04:41
    were of current Dimension or
  • 00:04:43
    contemporary Dimension which you will
  • 00:04:44
    not find in standard books so that is
  • 00:04:47
    why guys if you want to read books which
  • 00:04:50
    are the books which you need to to crack
  • 00:04:52
    the prelims examination so I have given
  • 00:04:54
    you three books first is the m
  • 00:04:56
    lakshmikant second is the physical
  • 00:04:59
    geography book ncrt class 11th and the
  • 00:05:01
    Indian physical geography or Indian
  • 00:05:04
    physical environment class 11th these
  • 00:05:05
    are the three books next coming to
  • 00:05:08
    history guys coming to history this is
  • 00:05:10
    like the most toughest and demanding
  • 00:05:14
    subject why because guys there are many
  • 00:05:17
    books there are many books okay if you
  • 00:05:19
    count all the ncrs and the old ncrs and
  • 00:05:23
    no new ncrs old ncrt plus new ncrt some
  • 00:05:26
    people also read the Tamil Nadu textbook
  • 00:05:29
    so the there are more than 10 books
  • 00:05:31
    there are more than 10 books and it is
  • 00:05:33
    literally very tiring to read all these
  • 00:05:35
    10 books and many students they suffer
  • 00:05:37
    here but let me give you a unique
  • 00:05:40
    strategy so guys out of these 12
  • 00:05:43
    questions out of these 12 questions you
  • 00:05:45
    will see there were four to five
  • 00:05:48
    questions which directly came from the
  • 00:05:49
    ncrs okay so which are those ncrs which
  • 00:05:53
    we read then at least we will be able to
  • 00:05:56
    manage four or five questions means 50%
  • 00:05:59
    of the questions in history because even
  • 00:06:01
    if you read all this 12 to 13 history
  • 00:06:03
    books you will not be able to solve 12
  • 00:06:06
    out of 12 history questions so your
  • 00:06:08
    approach towards history should be let
  • 00:06:10
    me give minimum input and try to extract
  • 00:06:14
    maximum number of questions guys in upsc
  • 00:06:16
    examination let me tell you from my
  • 00:06:18
    experience of cracking six out of six
  • 00:06:20
    prelims you need not solve 100 out of
  • 00:06:23
    100 question let me tell you this is the
  • 00:06:25
    score you can see here 1446 here also I
  • 00:06:28
    left around four to five questions in
  • 00:06:29
    the exam I left I only attempted 95
  • 00:06:32
    questions here you can see again 140
  • 00:06:34
    marks around here also I left around
  • 00:06:36
    7even questions in exam I left I did not
  • 00:06:38
    attempt also still I got 144 you see
  • 00:06:42
    upsc exam need not you need not solve
  • 00:06:45
    everything you need to just clear the
  • 00:06:47
    cut off and you need to choose your
  • 00:06:49
    battle you need to choose your subject
  • 00:06:51
    where you are strong where with least
  • 00:06:53
    effort you get the maximum questions so
  • 00:06:56
    guys for history what is my suggestion
  • 00:06:58
    is that you read read this old ncrt
  • 00:07:01
    books ancient India old ncrt book
  • 00:07:04
    medieval India and you read the Spectrum
  • 00:07:07
    for Modern India read only these three
  • 00:07:10
    books okay but I'm not complete let me
  • 00:07:13
    tell you something more and what you do
  • 00:07:15
    for the new ncrs for the new ncrs what
  • 00:07:18
    you do you cover the
  • 00:07:22
    boxes and the
  • 00:07:25
    images and questions at the back
  • 00:07:30
    so at the back of every chapter you will
  • 00:07:31
    have some questions two three questions
  • 00:07:33
    prelims questions Mains question and in
  • 00:07:36
    every chapter you will have some boxes
  • 00:07:38
    in boxes the most important highlight of
  • 00:07:41
    the chapter is mentioned and guys I have
  • 00:07:43
    analyzed The Last 5 Years of History
  • 00:07:46
    questions in the prelims examination
  • 00:07:48
    most of the questions which are coming
  • 00:07:49
    from the new ncrt are taken from the
  • 00:07:51
    images or the boxes so read only these
  • 00:07:55
    three book for history old ncrt ancient
  • 00:07:59
    old ncrt mediev and the Spectrum book
  • 00:08:02
    and from the new ncrt just prepare the
  • 00:08:04
    boxes images and questions at the back
  • 00:08:07
    that's it guys again I'm saying this is
  • 00:08:09
    the minimum list which I'm going to give
  • 00:08:12
    to you to crack the prelims examination
  • 00:08:14
    2025 in the most easiest manner less is
  • 00:08:18
    more if you want to read less and you
  • 00:08:19
    want to revise more then stick to this
  • 00:08:21
    list this is a very scientific list very
  • 00:08:24
    scientific list I have prepared next
  • 00:08:27
    coming to so these are the three subject
  • 00:08:29
    subjects now which are static oriented
  • 00:08:31
    so that's why you see I have kept these
  • 00:08:33
    three subjects together so here are
  • 00:08:35
    books playing an important role okay in
  • 00:08:37
    these three subjects books play an
  • 00:08:38
    important role more you read more you
  • 00:08:42
    get the score in the exam but here if
  • 00:08:46
    you see these four subjects okay IR
  • 00:08:48
    science Eco and environment questions
  • 00:08:51
    are more current oriented most of the
  • 00:08:53
    questions if you see here are current
  • 00:08:55
    oriented so here reading
  • 00:08:57
    books will help but what will help more
  • 00:09:01
    is mastering current affairs if you
  • 00:09:03
    master current affairs then only you can
  • 00:09:05
    score well in economy environment
  • 00:09:07
    Science and Tech and IR so here reading
  • 00:09:10
    any traditional sources will not help
  • 00:09:13
    much but here also there are some
  • 00:09:15
    minimum sources if you read you can
  • 00:09:18
    score very high marks okay so for
  • 00:09:21
    environment what is that minimum source
  • 00:09:23
    so many people they read okay the famous
  • 00:09:26
    book okay two two books are there I hope
  • 00:09:29
    you know this okay but what my
  • 00:09:31
    suggestion is that rather than reading
  • 00:09:33
    that you read this ncrt ecology unit
  • 00:09:37
    class 12th Biology book ncrt ecology
  • 00:09:40
    unit there are four chapters here read
  • 00:09:43
    these four chapters this is more than
  • 00:09:45
    enough to score any question which are
  • 00:09:47
    basic question from environment because
  • 00:09:49
    most of the questions in environment
  • 00:09:51
    will be current oriented that anyways
  • 00:09:53
    you will not be able to solve if you
  • 00:09:54
    read any coaching Institute book also so
  • 00:09:58
    better is to First Master these four
  • 00:10:01
    ncrt chapters which are hardly around 30
  • 00:10:04
    to 40 pages rather than reading a 300 or
  • 00:10:06
    400 Pages book first you master this
  • 00:10:09
    because I get lot of request sir please
  • 00:10:12
    help us in environment I'm not able to
  • 00:10:14
    read the book okay please help us in
  • 00:10:16
    environment I'm not able to complete it
  • 00:10:18
    it is too bulky so what my suggestion is
  • 00:10:21
    just read the ncrt these four chapters
  • 00:10:23
    properly and I'm not obviously guys out
  • 00:10:26
    of this 15 question which came maybe one
  • 00:10:28
    or two two question directly came from
  • 00:10:30
    this ncrt but even if you have read
  • 00:10:33
    those books also which are very bulky
  • 00:10:35
    there also guys since the questions are
  • 00:10:37
    current oriented the books are very good
  • 00:10:39
    let me again reiterate the books are
  • 00:10:41
    very good the environment books which
  • 00:10:44
    most of the students read they are very
  • 00:10:45
    good books well written books well
  • 00:10:47
    researched books but the problem is the
  • 00:10:50
    questions which are coming in this
  • 00:10:51
