Our
primary objective is to provide dependable guidance
for candidates preparing for the Civil Services
Examination conducted by the Union Public Service
Commission, with a view to enable them to secure their
cherished career in life. It has been the constant
endeavour of the Union Public Service Commission to so
pattern the system of recruitment that the best
available talent is located. For this purpose, the
Commission has introduced a new system of examination
from 1979 onward. The new Combined Civil Services
Examination aims at, to test not only the candidate's
subjective knowledge, but also his capacity to
understand and interpret complicated issues and his
ability to apply knowledge to resolve practical
problems. With this end in view, the Commission has
introduced a screening test of objective type at the
Preliminary Test level.
Further,
the system of examination requires a candidate to
prepare a subject of Honours or Post-Graduation
standard which he might not have studied as a part of
his curricula at his Graduation and Post-Graduation
levels. This calls for a completely new orientation of
preparation on the part of the candidate to qualify in
the Civil Services Examination which is entirely
different from the traditional university-type of
examination. Consequently a candidate just after
passing out of an university does not comprehend
clearly what is expected of him to qualify in the
Civil Services Examination. He is not in a position to
select a new optional subject which will suit both his
personal aptitude and the chances for securing higher
marks in the Civil Services Examination. This is where
a candidate needs the help of a professional
educational institute specialising in the Civil
Services Examination.
Keeping in view the difficulties a
candidate is likely to face when he decides to sit for
the Civil Services Examination, we not only offer
useful guidance to candidates but also help them in
the selection of proper optional subjects.
A study of the successful candidates in the Civil Services
Examination in the previous years brings out clearly the traits required of a
candidate to succeed finally in the Civil Services Examination. These could be
summed up as the candidate's ability to understand clearly the subject-matter of
the General Studies and the Optional subjects in a systematic manner, capacity
to write a long, analytical and imaginative essay in an impressive style,
formulate and present his answer in the most direct, logical, constructive and
analytical manner highlighting the central and salient points and possession of
an amicable, cheerful and optimistic outlook towards life for success in the
personality test.
Keeping the above traits as the
criteria, we have been following and striving to
improve upon our system of guidance in such a way that
it would bring out the best in a candidate so that he
could compete successfully in the Civil Services
Examination.
