How can I get my UPSC Mains answer writing
evaluated? SUGAM Best Mains Answer Writing for
UPSC Written practice is the single most
important factor in your success on the Mains
exam. You may have read all the books, but
without the practice of writing you would be
nothing without practicing UPSC Mains answer
writing. The writing practice should take place
in two phases. First Phase This is from the
beginning of your preparation to the preliminary
stage. After an initial few months of
preparation, you should aim to post at least 1
answer per day. Sources of the questions can
be Documents from the previous year. Questions
about the test series. Question posted in
Insights Students often hesitate to practice
writing because they think that their knowledge
is not up to par and they need more time to gain
knowledge. Remember The magic day when you know
enough to answer the UPSC question never
comes! You should start with the knowledge you
currently have. Initially your answers would be
very off the mark and hardly worth 1 or 2
points. Many of us leave our practice at this
point (myself included) because we don't want to
see our initial poor performance face to face.
However, if you tolerate this phase well, you
will see a big leap in your performance. How to
assess yourself? You are the best judge of your
writing skills. Write an answer and read it from
a neutral perspective. 2nd phase After passing
the preliminary examination, you should
concentrate on registering for 1 to 2 test
series in addition to your daily writing
practice. In the test series, the first results
can also be disappointing. I only got 38 out of
250 on my first tests. Again, if you follow the
comments and stay calm, you'll soon be among the
first.

A common characteristic of students who pass the
exam on the first try or in a relatively short
time is that they recognized the importance of
writing practice very early in their
preparation. Limited reading with more writing
practice is always preferable to possession of
encyclopedic knowledge but little writing
practice.
Writing practice for the main exams is probably
the second most important factor determining
selection (after passing the preliminary exam). I
would recommend students with relatively weaker
writing skills to start as soon as possible
(probably 3- 4 months after preparation and at
least 8 months). of the power grid). There were
several elements that I explain here When to
start UPSC Mains Answer Writing Start after
you've covered some GS in detail and have some
basic knowledge of current affairs/static parts
of GS. For example, if you've covered some
politics and GS 2 topics and you have a good
idea about that part, you can at least start
writing answers about GS 2 topics. In general,
students wait until the pre-exams are completed.
This is a mistake. For those of us who don't
have great writing skills, it's important to
start at least 8 months in advance to develop
those skills. These skills take
time. Personally, I started writing answers on a
piece of paper every day in the month of
November to December and practiced for up to 1
month before the preliminary rounds. After the
preliminary rounds I started again. Where to
start You can start using online platforms like
Eden IAS to ask questions. 8-10 questions on
current topics every day. My personal routine was
to write 1-3 replies a day (about 40 minutes) for
these websites. First, I chose the questions I
liked. to answer questions about which you have
less knowledge. Over time, I noticed a noticeable
change in the speed and sharpness of the
responses. Also draw diagrams, flowcharts, etc.
and time each response according to
UPSC. Getting Started Make your plan for the
next 3-4 months. Decide how many questions will
be asked per day (2 or 3 per day is more than
enough).Also decide how many samples per month
(usually 1 per week is enough). Also subscribe to
some test series that you are scheduled to write
every 1-2 weeks. Early Responses

It's always a good idea to look at early
responses, but don't treat them as sacred. You
will always have your style. Just make sure you
cover the basics like GOOD STRUCTURE, CLARITY OF
THOUGHT, ADDRESSING THE KEY POINTS OF THE
QUESTION, SIMPLE LANGUAGE, SUPPLEMENTING WITH
APPROPRIATE VISUALS like flowcharts, etc.
