  • It is highly recommended to join mock test series, especially if you are preparing from home. This will help you to assess yourself and help you further.

Tip #6: UPSC Interview

  • As mentioned before, the final stage in the UPSC exam process is the UPSC interview or Personality Test.
  • This is an important stage in the process and here, it is something more than academics that will help you.
