hello Siddhartha.
can you help m out with sociology… ..
I hv not started yet much for 2017.. I want finish 2-3times time before prelims 17…
I took sociology…..(some time I doubt I think history Lena tha) I m confused
I m following1-2 topper list like nitin sangwan …..dat ol no other guidance..
if u cn help m to kick start once … how to proceed….. how to see answer writing…clear concept….I will b very thankful…..
Siddhartha_Bangalore
September 18, 2016
First & foremost do a self assessment on your taste of two subjects like history and sociology .. read both d books , 1 @ morning session & other @ evening or noon session…
After few days say 10 – 12 days make a report on which you were comfortable on reading & understanding d concept b/w 2 subjects .. eg: prons & cons … make d report in bullet points & analyse where is your strength lies in .. do a balance which is more proportional to liking d subject ….
Remember do not just select the subject as some topper have selected this .. Optional subjects selection is purely on interest level , liking & understanding d concepts that fits into interest of reading ..
Now do not jump to d conclusion so as to select d subject .. be patient & do d above home work 4 your own good & come back to me with your results on +ve note .. i am reachable on iasbaba comment section any time … believe that !!
Neilam
September 18, 2016
ok let me invest 10-12days like this .. see previous years papers.question…
do excerise you ..
sure will Mk note … discuss.nd see nd decide…I dnt want to screw………
and basic ncert nd ignou ……
Siddhartha_Bangalore
September 18, 2016
I can suggest 1 optional subject for you right now ..which is a win win situation 4 you .. but looking @ your assignment i will suggest this only after 10 – 12 days ..if I mention d name right now , sure you will still be confused . Let’s wait as per d scheduled days & lets time decides d right factor
Thx

Neilam
September 27, 2016
yes …
history vs sociology
history – +ve pre,mains+optional syllabus,static,solve previous papers get alot idea.. + can understand in simple one reading..+self study can be done+scoring if done smartly
-ve very very long.. too much read required …if u cans eat butt off sure u can do..old ncert book only are more then 1500+pges..
require long revision…to all story in mind
sociology- short sweet scoring too ..but 1,2even3rd sometime you cannot understand I cnt understand..I can’t do slef study in this.. paper 2full Dynamic….very scoring if done with understanding…
syallbus short..papers ok..but I cnt grip it.. so 🙁
5-6days I m reading history I keep exlporing new thing …but I cnt do sociology…4-5hr daily study u cnt understand I loose interest……
long story short- you can pain to seta long hours..put effort history is man good….it will get u score too..
but you want short sweet..brain storming sociology will fetch you more marks in some hours put in it ….
Siddhartha_Bangalore
September 27, 2016
Nicely excuted & implemented your skills, thoughts, prons & cons(better than wat i thought).. still question remains what will you choose .. another 3 days 2 go to complete 10 days .assignment. after 10th day i will say you 3rd optional subject name which has more + points thn -ve … do not worry i have proof .
You can justify yourself ….wait 4 3 more days .. believe that !
Neilam
September 27, 2016
are.. tell now …
not more… I already star reading history.. completed modern and ancient basic old ncert too…lol ( good reading skills so)
actually I did phd then that.. took just 34 yr paper topic wise.. syllabus wise..tried to read topic bpform basic tried to answer them..to my surprise I can do that from very basic book old ncert in one understand ing only…I feel satisfied.. by gettung liitle otput ?
dnt keep suspense now ….
Siddhartha_Bangalore
September 28, 2016
Hello .. sorry 4 delay .. today hectik loaded in job. . Coming to discussion ..on optional .. i suggest you & most of d aspirant 2 take literature (regional) .. why ??
+ve pts
Scoring & a static subject
Easy 2 read like story
No mugg up
Direct question 4rm d book
No outside question (unlike Pub Admin, Geography, sociology)
Reference last 5 yrs question paper more than enough
Compulsary qualify paper ( will be a cake walk no need 4 separate preparation most of syllabus cover d gap )
Revision can be done during mains preparation ( micro notes must on poems & authors background/ achievement)
Grip in regional language – easy 4 essay writing
Easy to take state level public service commission exam .. almost same syallbus .. hit ratio on scoring marks is win win 4 you
Literature useful in personality interview .. as combination of regional- state level & national – central level questions arises ( read regional level news + central level too) .. upsc interviewer will cross question on state you come from / list of d state govt yojana/ prons/ cons / current affairs – state must 2 read ( literature like name of poet / achievement / language barriers across stare etc
-ve pts
Reference books bit more
7 – 8 months require to complete d syllabus ..
Need Check on cost of books before purchasing
Literature group members/ friends less in market … therefore guidelines needed ..
Note : last but not least .. to test d interest & taste of literature no need to wait 4 10 days .. just go 2 a noted public library check d author name as per upsc prescribed .. read 2 to 3 books .. in 72 hrs you will understand d final o/p .. all d best ..

hello Siddhartha.
can you help m out with sociology… ..
I hv not started yet much for 2017.. I want finish 2-3times time before prelims 17…
I took sociology…..(some time I doubt I think history Lena tha) I m confused
I m following1-2 topper list like nitin sangwan …..dat ol no other guidance..
if u cn help m to kick start once … how to proceed….. how to see answer writing…clear concept….I will b very thankful…..
First & foremost do a self assessment on your taste of two subjects like history and sociology .. read both d books , 1 @ morning session & other @ evening or noon session…
After few days say 10 – 12 days make a report on which you were comfortable on reading & understanding d concept b/w 2 subjects .. eg: prons & cons … make d report in bullet points & analyse where is your strength lies in .. do a balance which is more proportional to liking d subject ….
Remember do not just select the subject as some topper have selected this .. Optional subjects selection is purely on interest level , liking & understanding d concepts that fits into interest of reading ..
Now do not jump to d conclusion so as to select d subject .. be patient & do d above home work 4 your own good & come back to me with your results on +ve note .. i am reachable on iasbaba comment section any time … believe that !!
ok let me invest 10-12days like this .. see previous years papers.question…
do excerise you ..
sure will Mk note … discuss.nd see nd decide…I dnt want to screw………
and basic ncert nd ignou ……
I can suggest 1 optional subject for you right now ..which is a win win situation 4 you .. but looking @ your assignment i will suggest this only after 10 – 12 days ..if I mention d name right now , sure you will still be confused . Let’s wait as per d scheduled days & lets time decides d right factor
Thx
Siddhartha
Bangalore
ohh no..pls tell now ..so i can look it too with all both socio and history …syllabus .. previous papers ..
thanks .
Slow & steady wins d race.. believe that !!
hmm
Hope you have almost made a choice w.r t your optional subject 4 2k17
yes …
history vs sociology
history – +ve pre,mains+optional syllabus,static,solve previous papers get alot idea.. + can understand in simple one reading..+self study can be done+scoring if done smartly
-ve very very long.. too much read required …if u cans eat butt off sure u can do..old ncert book only are more then 1500+pges..
require long revision…to all story in mind
sociology- short sweet scoring too ..but 1,2even3rd sometime you cannot understand I cnt understand..I can’t do slef study in this.. paper 2full Dynamic….very scoring if done with understanding…
syallbus short..papers ok..but I cnt grip it.. so 🙁
5-6days I m reading history I keep exlporing new thing …but I cnt do sociology…4-5hr daily study u cnt understand I loose interest……
long story short- you can pain to seta long hours..put effort history is man good….it will get u score too..
but you want short sweet..brain storming sociology will fetch you more marks in some hours put in it ….
Nicely excuted & implemented your skills, thoughts, prons & cons(better than wat i thought).. still question remains what will you choose .. another 3 days 2 go to complete 10 days .assignment. after 10th day i will say you 3rd optional subject name which has more + points thn -ve … do not worry i have proof .
You can justify yourself ….wait 4 3 more days .. believe that !
are.. tell now …
not more… I already star reading history.. completed modern and ancient basic old ncert too…lol ( good reading skills so)
actually I did phd then that.. took just 34 yr paper topic wise.. syllabus wise..tried to read topic bpform basic tried to answer them..to my surprise I can do that from very basic book old ncert in one understand ing only…I feel satisfied.. by gettung liitle otput ?
dnt keep suspense now ….
Hello .. sorry 4 delay .. today hectik loaded in job. . Coming to discussion ..on optional .. i suggest you & most of d aspirant 2 take literature (regional) .. why ??
+ve pts
Scoring & a static subject
Easy 2 read like story
No mugg up
Direct question 4rm d book
No outside question (unlike Pub Admin, Geography, sociology)
Reference last 5 yrs question paper more than enough
Compulsary qualify paper ( will be a cake walk no need 4 separate preparation most of syllabus cover d gap )
Revision can be done during mains preparation ( micro notes must on poems & authors background/ achievement)
Grip in regional language – easy 4 essay writing
Easy to take state level public service commission exam .. almost same syallbus .. hit ratio on scoring marks is win win 4 you
Literature useful in personality interview .. as combination of regional- state level & national – central level questions arises ( read regional level news + central level too) .. upsc interviewer will cross question on state you come from / list of d state govt yojana/ prons/ cons / current affairs – state must 2 read ( literature like name of poet / achievement / language barriers across stare etc
-ve pts
Reference books bit more
7 – 8 months require to complete d syllabus ..
Need Check on cost of books before purchasing
Literature group members/ friends less in market … therefore guidelines needed ..
Note : last but not least .. to test d interest & taste of literature no need to wait 4 10 days .. just go 2 a noted public library check d author name as per upsc prescribed .. read 2 to 3 books .. in 72 hrs you will understand d final o/p .. all d best ..
