    Preparing for your Civil Service Exams


    Do you aspire to conquer the Civil Service Exams (CSE) and make a career for yourself? Preparing for the Civil Service Exams can be a daunting task especially if you don't have the right set of civil services books. One of the biggest roadblocks aspirants face for the CSE is time management. There are three stages of the CSE exam – Preliminary, Main and the Interview. 


    Consider the Exam Pattern and Carefully Choose Your Civil Services Books


    The UPSC website clearly mentions that the purpose of their test is to find individuals who have an awareness of the geography, history, culture and other functional aspects of India. You should carefully choose your civil services exam books as the questions that you may face may be of a specialized nature.


    Here are a few tips that you can use to prepare yourself:

     

    Plan a Structured Study Using A Reliable Set of Civil Services Books


    Since there is a lot of information that needs to be taken in, it is easier to structure your study plan by concentrating on building on the basic concepts.


    Time Management


    Having a clear mind goes a long way in keeping you calm and composed. Always remember there are two types of stress. One of them helps in improving your learning efficiency while the other has a detrimental effect on your learning ability. We are referring to eustress and distress respectively. A good set of civil services entrance exam books will make it easy for you to learn and retain concepts. This reduces the distress factor. Use a good civil services exam question book to improve your preparation and also test your knowledge and exam time management skills. This will help you with your confidence with regards to various concepts that are tested in these exams.


    Test Your Knowledge After Reading Your Civil Services Books


    We can't emphasize enough on the importance of developing the habit of writing, reading, analysing and examining. Having regular discussion with your fellow students provides an excellent practice for logically presenting and arranging your views.


    Revision Should Be Prioritized


    The CSE exam is expansive and this dictates that a regular revisit to your civil services books is a must. Ensure your time table has enough time dedicated to this revision activity.


    Keep Yourself Updated with Current Affairs


    Many of the questions you will be asked will be related to general awareness of topical affairs in the world. There will be a special emphasis on the happenings in India. Start reading as many daily newspapers as possible to stay updated on current topics.


    Your Civil Services Books Cannot Help with This Next Point


    Going through all of your civil services exams books and other worthy media is a taxing task. It is important that you eat and sleep well. Get some exercise by engaging in other activities. Remember to have fun.


    Books 

    Here are a few books that you can explore and add to your learning arsenal:


    Indian Polity By M Laxmikanth


    This book is published by McGraw Hill. It covers a wide range topics that are found useful by academics, postgraduates, research scholars, and general readers who are exploring India’s political, civil and constitutional issues. This book has 18 appendices and 76 chapters that cover the entire Indian political and constitutional spectrum. It also provides you with UPSC questions and practice questions on Indian Polity that help you test your knowledge. This will help you prepare for your Preliminary and Main Examinations. 


    Indian Art And Culture By Nitin Singhania


    This is another useful book that is published by McGraw Hill. This book offers a systematic breakdown of knowledge into four sections: Culture in India, Visual Arts, Performing Arts, and Appendices. All the topics are streamlined logically and this makes it easy to understand and remember details. This book also offers illustrations to strengthen retention and access to videos that deliver additional explanation to specific topics. These can be easily accessed using the provided QR codes. You also get a set of previous year questions and practice questions that help you prepare well.


    Where to Buy Your Civil Services Books From?


    You can buy your civil services books online from your favourite e-retailer shopping websites while sitting in the comfort of your home. This way you will be able to compare prices, deals and designs and then make a very well-informed decision followed by a purchase. Many of these e-retailers offer free home delivery. You can also take advantage of the return pickup facility just in case what you have received needs to be replaced. You can also enjoy peace of mind as all your shipments can be tracked. So what are you waiting for? Log on to a reliable e-commerce website and buy your books on civil services online today. If you are unsure where to start, begin by exploring books such as Indian Art and Culture - For Civil Services Preliminary and Main, International Relations - For Civil Services Examination First Edition and Geography of India Seventh Edition among others.
