  • Our Solutions: This mentorship program directly addresses the above issues through a structured approach:

    • Full-Length Prelims Test Series: Integrates regular full GS and CSAT mock exams to build exam temperament and consistency. Performance is tracked to identify weaknesses.
    • Predefined Schedule & Roadmap: You receive a week-by-week study plan (including test calendars and revision windows) from day one, eliminating confusion and ensuring structured coverage of the entire syllabus.
    • Regular Performance Tracking: A performance dashboard and accountability system keep you on track, with periodic reviews so you can make strategic corrections in time.
