PRELIMS EXCLUSIVE CURRENT AFFAIRS CLASSES (12 SESSIONS-By Tauseef Sir): JOIN NOW!

In this video, Tauseef Sir has provided a very unique approach and planning for Current Affairs Consolidation. 

We hope you find it helpful.


Dear Aspirants,

The World is facing an unprecedented crisis. It can be seen as one of the biggest catastrophes being faced by humankind. And we are no different. Our country is in complete-lockdown for 21 days.  Looking at the gravity of the situation, this lockdown may increase for a number of weeks.

Whole World is trying hard to fight this menace. The contribution of each one of us is crucial in this fight. Following the regulation is one way to contribute. Do not disobey the law and order at any cost.

You should utilize this opportunity to introspect on yourself. As an aspirant, present time can be productively used in self-introspection. You can carefully introspect your learning curve. You can cross-check your preparation level.

Don’t indulge in rumours regarding postponement of UPSC Prelims 2020. What if everything is settled by next month and UPSC decides to conduct the examination as on scheduled date?

Whatsoever be the case, you as an aspirant should be on your toes w.r.t preparation. We know that things are not that easy, but it has never been an easy option for you guys anyway.  Isolation is not new to a UPSC aspirant. You always had to focus on preparation more than anything else.

Every moment has two faces: Positive and Negative

Negative is what we are witnessing in the World. 

Positive is what you can do to yourself!

We have been getting a lot of calls and requests regarding revision of Current Affairs for Prelims.

Let us have a reality check on Previous Years Prelims Questions from Current Affairs and its relevance w.r.t tons of materials/compilations/modules that many of you follow or try to mug just before Prelims.

You conservatively cover more than 1000 pages of compilations prepared by yourself or someone else (past 1 and half Years Current Affairs). Even if 1 or 2 questions are replicated, it doesn’t actually bear fruit for the effort put.

In those compilations, you aren’t taught about the relevance and importance of topics or issues and why it should be covered or not missed?


Let us see, the questions from previous Prelims 2019:

Q.) Which of the following are in Agasthyamala Biosphere Reserve?

  1. Neyyar, Peppara and Shendurney Wildlife Sanctuaries; and Kalakad Mundanthurai Tiger Reserve
  2. Mudumalai, Sathyamagalam and Wayanad Wildlife Sanctuaries; and Silent Valley National Park
  3. Kaundinya, Gundla Brahme-swaram and papikonda Wildlife Sancturies; and Mukurthi National park
  4. Kawal and Sri Venkateswara Wildlife Sanctuaries; and Nagarjunasagar- Srisailam Tiger Reserve

ANALYSIS:

How many such questions are there in UPSC Prelims every year? More than 30 (encompassing all the domains)  

Now, this question seems random for many of you. How is it possible to mug so many WLs, NPs and Tiger Reserves etc.?

What if you had read newspapers in such a manner to witness the same there? Do not believe? Check this out:


Q.) What is common to the places known as Aliyar, Isapur and Kangsabati?

  1. Recently discovered uranium deposits
  2. Tropical rain forests
  3. Underground cave systems
  4. Water reservoirs

ANALYSIS:

May seem static to most of you, but it was also in current affairs. Check this out!


Q.) Which one of the following statements is not correct?

  1. Hepatitis B virus is transmitted much like HIV.
  2. Hepatitis B, unlike Hepatitis C, does not have a vaccine.
  3. Globally, the numbers of people infected with Hepatitis B and C viruses are several times more than those infected with HIV.
  4. Some of those infected with Hepatitis B and C viruses do not show the symptoms for many years.

ANALYSIS:

You cannot prepare topics like this in isolation. Covering current affairs sincerely in required dimensions will help you solve such questions with ease.


Q.) The word ‘Denisovan’ is sometimes mentioned in media in reference to

  1. fossils of a kind of dinosaurs
  2. an early human species
  3. a cave system found in North-East India
  4. a geological period in the history of the Indian subcontinent

ANALYSIS:

There are more than 30 such questions in Prelims that can be easily solved if proper follow up of important aspects from current affairs is done.
