Kanishak Kataria UPSC Topper marks

In His own words : ▾

Hi, I will be sharing some Evernote notes which I used. They are
derived from my classnotes, some test series trivia, other online and
offline information. There might be some typos here and there. Please
bear with them. These notes are in no ways exhaustive. They were
supplemented by other offline material, for both Prelims and Mains.

Kanishak Kataria Books List:

In his own words: Many people have asked me about my booklist. It’s
more or less similar to my friend Prudhvitej’s booklist (AIR 24 UPSC
2017) – replace all classnotes with Vajiram classnotes. It’ll take me
sometime to arrange all the information. Till then you can refer to his
sources: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1lpa7-
LoNMQ36OsDuyJtJDCpu89bMJ50f

CAUTION:
The given booklist is neither exhaustive nor sufficient for
qualification in prelims.
Much of it was constrained by my optional.
Depending on own level of comfort, students should refer
to the books.
I DID NOT copy any other topper’s booklist.
I just got a basic understanding and then read what I felt
most comfortable with.
Each topic was also updated through Test series reverse
learning – Vajiram and Vision – both available online.
Internet was also used to improve the collected
information.
All class-notes are from Vajiram classes made by myself
and NOT COPIED.
Vision PT 365s were referred for all the topics, specially
Environment and Science and Technology.

Ancient History :

Own strategy: Had very less time. So tried to cover class

notes only. If someone has time/interest, please refer to
other standard books like XIth NCERT and/or Nitin
Singhania. Ancient History Notes in the “history” notebook
are from Jain Sir’s classes at Vajiram. A lot of information
has been added to it through test series materials.Those
facing issues in this particular topic along with paucity of
time, can try to cover these notes. Hopefully, they will be of
some benefit in the examination.
