For Prelims, I would strongly recommend Vision IAS Full Test Series (not

subject-wise) and daily Insight IAS MCQs on current affairs. Also, Previous

5 years questions are a must.

Mains: Mains is primarily about how well you write. In an answer, following

are the components:

● Content 30%

● Presentation 70%

Mock Interviews: As mentioned before, I moved to Delhi for my interview

preparation. Mocks at the following institites is what I would recommend:

Vajiram – 2 (They also have classes for a week to brush you up. Found it

helpful).

Sriram – 1

Chanakya-1 (They give a DVD recording of your mock, so it is easy to

correct your mistake).
