Hello Friends,
Welcome to UPSC Mains Answer Writing Programme- Think, Learn and Perform (TLP) 2019: Phase I
For a surgeon, it takes years of practice and experience to master the art of surgery. The precision required to perform complex surgeries comes from the confidence acquired in the years gone by. The same holds true for other professions and areas of expertise. What we do at IASbaba doesn’t only require precision but also anticipation. After all, we deal with an examination conducted by UPSC, a body known for its unpredictability. Mains Answer Writing is a very important component of your preparation and the last 3.5 years have shown the mettle of IASbaba Mains Answer Writing Programme TLP in creating an ecosystem of knowledge that can be as close as it gets to the demands of UPSC.

We can’t express the satisfaction that we get after helping thousands of aspirants in their efforts to secure a rank in Civil Services. With our multiple initiatives both online and offline, we shall keep striving to make sure that each one you get the best possible support during your preparation.
In the packet of initiatives that we have, the one with the maximum number of followers and fans alike is the TLP i.e. Think. Learn and Perform, a Mains answer writing programme. TLP has been hitting the bullseye for the last 4 years with an average of more than 75% questions in Mains coming from the questions posed on a daily basis on the TLP platform. Of course, the numerous ‘thanks’ that we receive from TLP followers is the fuel of this initiative.
Philosophy of TLP
The driving force of TLP is the most imperative skill required in Mains- the ability to express your knowledge effectively and convincingly in 150 to 250 words in the stipulated 180 minutes that you get in a Mains paper. It is not as easy as it sounds even for those who have fair command over the Mains syllabus. In fact, without adequate answer writing practice, one finds herself at sea during Mains. It becomes difficult to choose the right information and even more difficult to get the right words to express that information. This is where TLP comes handy. It gives you 60 days of rigorous practice, enough to score well in Mains. Through the course of TLP, you get exposed to more than 300 high-quality questions, receive expert feedback and peer reviews and get elaborate synopsis to complement and expand your understanding. This way, TLP provides an end to end solution to your answer writing needs.
TLP runs in two phases- one before prelims and one after prelims. We are proud to announce the commencement of TLP 2019- Phase I for Mains 2019.
Why not year-long TLP?
- UPSC preparation should be strategically done and Answer Writing is not the only thing that one should invest his/her energy on. A wholesome preparation requires categorical importance to be given to your Prelims and Mains (GS and Optional) both.
- By ending TLP in January 2019, we are making sure that you focus on revision of TLP and then start with Prelims revision.
- Prelims 60 Days will also start after TLP.
