I can tell you firsthand that many who started preparing for the UPSC Exam with the dream of becoming IAS/IFS officers in 2024 have now dropped their plans to even appear in 2024. Why? Because they think they are not 'adequately' prepared, and they will give their best shot in 2025 now. Please do not make that mistake, and do not take a gap year. You will ruin your life!
If you are eligible to write the exam in 2024 and can dedicate around 10 hours per day to your preparations, please do not postpone your plans. Please do not make UPSC a 5-year plan.
The following should be your go-to strategy now. Just stay consistent, and you will crack the Prelims. Dedicate 10 hours per day, and here is how you should go about it.

1. January & February:
Complete History (Ancient, Medieval, Modern) + Economics + pick up any test series to solve 30 questions daily (from February onwards). Dr. Jahnavi recently uploaded it on the LinkedIn Alumni Group.
Watch 2 episodes daily on the MisFits Learning Portal on Economics and History. How will this help?
After completion of these modules, you would have developed an innate ability to make better conjectures.
You will be better positioned to read through current affairs (via newspapers), or when you are making notes while solving the tests.
At least for Economics, you’d see more than 90% accuracy. It could reach even 95-100% if you watch the lectures twice. For history, it should be around 60%, but if you can make diligent notes from the Test Series, and revise those notes, that accuracy should reach around 80-85% (which is actually pretty good).

Don’t worry about the Mains at this stage. Inadvertently, you’d be prepared for the Mains - we took a lot of effort to make sure that these video lessons cover things comprehensively. The only difference in Mains vs. Prelims preparation is how you go about solving test papers, and the focus on remembering certain specificities.
Please watch through the session before Episode 19 (under the Geography heading) for my thoughts on Prelims 2024, and how you should make the best use of MisFits Episodes + Tests.
2. March & April:
Complete Geography, Environment, Science and tech.
Watch 2 episodes daily on the MisFits Learning Portal + Solve Test Papers (as shared on the LinkedIn Alumni Group). How will this help?
A large part is static & conceptual - if you have learned those concepts well, you should get good accuracy in these subjects.
You would have logically solved many UPSC Prelims & Mains questions and will be well-positioned to solve potential questions from this part.
Aspects of mapping would also be covered via this.
3. Last Week of April + May (until the 2nd week):
Watch through Polity and Governance Episodes on the MisFits Portal.
• Is India becoming a DI...
Watch 2 episodes daily on the MisFits Learning Portal. The reason for covering Polity at the end is so that some factual data checked in the exam are fresh in your mind as/when you write the UPSC.
Polity for Prelims is very predictable; 20% effort here would yield 80% returns. By this time, you will be adequately prepared to better grasp Polity (because you can see the interconnections I have made across Geography, Environment, Economics, etc., for all of you).
If you had followed the above methods, you would have completed the following things by the 2nd week of May:
1. Foundations of History, Economics, Polity, Governance, Geography, Science & Tech, and Society.
2. Current Affairs via solving around 30 Contemporary Test Papers. (Retaining information via these current affairs would be much easier for you because your foundations
3. Past 14 years of UPSC official papers.
But, wait. Cracking Prelims is not the only thing. You won’t get medals for this. The next stage is extremely critical. Focus on cracking the exam in one go. How will that happen?
After your Prelims - take a 1-week break. And then do the following:
Step 1: Watch through the Playlist on Foreign Policy Classroom with Amb. Anil Trigunyat.
Step 2: Watch through the Playlist on Essays (250 Marks).
Step 3: Watch through the Masterclass on Structures.
Step 4: Watch through the Playlist on Ethics (250 Marks).
Step 5: Revise Economics until your UPSC Prelims Result is out!
• Video
Keep attending special sessions - where I will cover some issues from scratch.
Be part of answer writing communities at MisFits (after your Prelims Result).
Additionally, your Mains GS is done along with the above episodes. Focus your 3 months on Optionals.
After your Mains - There will be a series of around 7-10 lectures that will help you in getting 200+ in the interviews.
Stop watching Free RU-vid Videos and crash Courses. Many of these are sub-standard resources. Minimize your resources
