I have applied for Group 1 exam whose application form
submission process is now on the way(till 1st sep 2009).

I am a fresher when it comes to preparation for Group 1.
Can anyone approximately tell me how much time it would
generally take to prepare for prelims and then for mains? I
am ready to dedicate atleast 10 hrs per day for
preparation.

Answer Posted / timbu198228

quality is important than quantity. for prelims, you need to
prepare objectively, not in detail. for mains, you need to
know in-depth of each topic. tackle one section and one part
per week or per 3 days.

read a lot of reference books and magazines like competition
success master and competition success review for excellent
science, history, polity subjects. Read the Hindu newspaper
and indian express to keep an update on the general essay
topics and make notes from all these magazines and newspapers.

target Indian constitution for one week and finish writing
notes, make ur own guess paper with questions. Focus on
writing on time. u might know everything but writing speed
is very important. when u write one side of a paper in half
a minute or one minute, you are ready for the exam.
this is how I prepared and had 5 mins in the end of every
paper to review and organize the answer sheets. Mark or
underline important sentences of your answer with a pencil
for mains. it gives good impression.
