NCERT Text Books (2) Standard Reference Text Books (3) Current
Affairs and (4) All-Topic-Exams in the most efficient way.
• Covers both static topics and current affairs: ClearIAS gives equal
importance to static topics (History, Geography, Polity etc) as well as
current affairs.
• Covers both conventional and unconventional question topics:
We intend to help our enrolled students clear UPSC CSE Prelims -
irrespective of the UPSC question difficulty. As part of ClearIAS fail-
proof strategy, conventional and unconventional areas are given
equal importance in our test series.

areas) is not enough to clear UPSC anymore. Candidates are expected
to have taken an intelligent interest in the events which are
happening around them.
• Develops Exam Skills: ClearIAS has always emphasised that success
in UPSC = 50% Knowledge and 50% Exam-Skills. As part of

• Exams are uploaded on Sundays: We keep uploading the above
mentioned mock exams one-by-one on every Sunday at around
10.00 AM. A gap of 2 weeks is provided for Subject-Specific Mock
Exams based on standard reference textbooks, which needs more
time to cover.
• Provision to take exams at any time convenient: Aspirants who
are enrolled in ClearIAS Prelims Test Series can take the exams at any
time convenient before Prelims 2021.
• Instant Access to Uploaded Exams: Once enrolled, you would get
instant access to all the uploaded paid-mock tests on the website –
even at midnight!
• Automatic Access to Upcoming Exams: You would also get
automatic access to all upcoming paid-mock tests in Prelims Test
Series 2021, without any additional individual payments!
• The validity of ClearIAS Prelims Test Series 2021: The 40 exams
in the 2021 test series is focused to help you clear UPSC Prelims
2021. The validity of the subscription to ClearIAS Prelims Test Series
2021 and other add-on services is until Prelims 2021 (ie June 27,
2021), irrespective of the date of joining. Once the Prelims is over, we
usually delete all test records and upload new questions for next year
test series.
• The Sources of Questions: For subject-specific exams and current
affairs exams, you should expect about 25% questions to be outside
the reference sources mentioned above. This is purposefully done, as
you cannot expect UPSC to stick to any particular book as above.
• The Span of Current Affairs: The span of Current Affairs questions
in the initial exams of ClearIAS is 5 years, while the last 3 Current
Affairs exams cover events in the last 2 years. This too is purposefully
done. It is noticed that UPSC nowadays ask questions based on items
in news even 4-5 years before.
• The revision of completed exams: You can revise completed mock
exams online from "My Account" link. Apart from solutions and
answer keys, detailed performance analysis reports are also available
online. As we provide online revision facility, we don't provide PDFs
or printouts. This ensures that (a) aspirants get the most accurate
relative performance reports and all-India ranking (by avoiding
multiple submissions) (b) questions remain in a closed loop (c)
candidates practice in a timed-environment with negative marking
and avoids mistakes in the exam hall (pirated photostats and PDFs
negatively affect both candidates and us).

How should you prepare for UPSC
Prelims 2021 most efficiently – as
per ClearIAS Strategy?
• Stick to ClearIAS Timetable, whenever possible.
• If you are not able to finish a subject within the mentioned
time, don’t worry. Take the mock exam on the mentioned date
with whatever preparation you did. You would get time to
revise the leftover topics, later.
• Once each exam is over, spend time to analyse your
performance. Detailed performance reports, solutions, and
answer key will be available in “My Account” link.
• Don’t bother much about the marks you get in the initial exams.
Rather focus on equipping yourself to UPSC standards.
• We strongly recommend practising previous year UPSC
Prelims Questions in a timed environment, in addition to the
mock exams above. We have provided the UPSC-retake exams
as an addon service. Solutions are based on the official key of
UPSC for Paper 1 and Paper 2. Devote your Saturdays for UPSC
previous year re-takes.
• Read extensively. Develop intelligent interest not only in the
traditional books but also in the events which are happening
around you.
• Develop your analytical skills by practising ClearIAS Intelligent
Elimination Techniques (IETs).
• Use the 3-2-1-0 E method for solving MCQs. Start using this
method early, so that you will get used to it.
• Don’t neglect the CSAT (GS Paper 2) altogether.
• Make sure you revise all exams 2-3 times before UPSC Prelims
2021, from “My Account” link.
• Remember the 80-20 principle. Just focus on the most-
important-20-percent, and you would score high!
