How does UPSC Pathshala ensure a result-driven approach? 

1. Personal Mentor

Preparation for the Civil Services exam is a long journey and it’s very essential to have a mentor who is experienced and can guide you at every step of the preparation. UPSC Pathshala offers a dedicated mentor who makes your complete study plan, always solves your doubts, discusses current affairs, evaluates your answers, and keeps you focused on your path. Not just that, but they also understand what your weak and strong concepts or subjects are and prepare the study plan accordingly. If you’re a working professional and have very less time to prepare for your exam, then the personal mentor will make a plan to ensure that the entire syllabus is covered in that particular time and you still have enough time for test series.

2. Amazing Quality Videos

UPSC Pathshala delivers the best quality video lectures by top most faculty members of India, covering the entire syllabus of General Studies (GS) and Civil Services Aptitude Test (CSAT) along with the most detailed coverage of Current Affairs for both Prelims and Mains. Further, they have checkpoint questions after each video and test after each module to test the student’s understanding.

3. Ample practice and test series

With UPSC Pathshala, you can keep track of your preparation with multilayered tests, both subjective and objective. You further get checkpoint questions based on each video to test your understanding and a module test at the end of each module. All of this will test how well versed you are with your subjects of GS and Current Affairs. This, in turn, gives you real-time UPSC Exam experience several times before your final attempt.

4. Offline access

Once the student gets enrolled for the course, they get a pen drive delivered at their doorstep. This pen drive will give them offline access to all the videos and study material. As and when the content gets updated on the portal, the pen drive gets synced automatically. Students can access the videos anywhere, anytime, at their convenience.

Several students have reviewed the above features as the best they can get under one roof. In one such student review, Bharat said, “UPSC Pathshala is a great interactive platform especially for working professionals who don’t have time to attend physical classes. It provides the best personal mentors for each student. These mentors guide them on which books to refer while studying, tips and tricks to get better at answering UPSC questions and essays, how to schedule for studies and much more. Furthermore, they correct you and interact with you at every step. If you have any questions or doubts, there are dedicated WhatsApp and Telegram groups where the queries can be addressed. However, for me, my personal mentor was just a call away.”
