- My next prelims course (PCB12) will be starting from 15th August.
- So it is possible that many learners may be watching some recorded classes during June July, and asking questions in their doubt form.
- Now, in each such old course pages, if I continue uploading the PDF files of doubt replies → it will make those course pages update-sections very clutter and confusing
- (kyoki usmein serious handouts bhi downloaded hai and then woh dabb jaayenge in the bottom & you will have to scroll 15 km to download every handout- IF i upload doubt reply PDF there every week!)
- and therefore I am forking out all doubt-reply into this single landing page. mrunal.org/doubt
- aap mere ko jo bhi puchhaa via google form in unacademy paid courses, its the answer is here.
- Usually update this page on Wednesday night.
- scrolldown or search for your username.
- if text table not fully visible in mobile due to long horizonal width, then open in the desktop browser.

| D2723 – anirudh | Sir, I am preparing for 2025. I started around last year but I have still not completed any subject with confidence. Moreover, from last year I have not been able to select my optional subject. My background is computer engineering so I am particular not interested in any of the optional subjects as per my background. Sir I am also a working professional and I want an optional that can be finished quickly. I heard maths optional which can somewhat relate to engineering is very lengthy. Sir please help me. | At least shortlist 2-3 optional subjects and then come back with this question again.

| D2724 – Ujjwal Singh | Good Evening sir, Following up on the old question “Sir, I am A PhD Student @ IIT Roorkee and preparing for UPSE since last year, due to a tight schedule, I am not able to study in live classes. I have been studying your course for the last 15 days and try to study 1 lecture each day. Please give me some guidance so I can positively put my efforts, I need some bits of advice regarding this and looking for good advice. and I also want to thank you for making economics easier for a student like me who has no strong base in such subjects.”Sir, I am doing 2 subjects at a time one in the morning “Economics” and one in the evening “IR”. Sir, May I continue this schedule or do I need to change it? |
I think you had asked this in the past, and I had replied this.
Rule of thumb: 1) if you can complete a topic by reading it for 20 minutes, then you should not watch the video for 40 minutes. 2) normally person should not watch more than five hour of lecture per day. Rest of the time should be utilised for Reading / self-studying. Make sure you are completing major landmarks such as if not, then u may have to shift some of the topics to post-prelims in june month e.g. world history, post-indpenedent india etc. 3) if you have paid subscription of the optional subject, then better to use its validity/duration to complete optional first, because the other things (e.g. science) are still manageable somewhat via self reading |

| D2727 – SYED ABEED | SIR my doubt is regarding” input tax credit ” 1)SIr why do government even need to give input tax credit , As the person just paying gst for the raw material he/she used. 2)from the given example in lecture( i.e a coaching center )- *They used input for business -they paid gst . *They gave service to the student- they will recieve gst from them which eventually will be submitted to gov. (so sir if the gov starts giving tax credit to gst at input ,to avoid cascading effect. isnt this looks like tax exemption on input or raw material) |
ITC promotes self-policing via every suppliers insisting on the invoices = reduced scope for blackmoney and reduces cascading effect = reduced burden on final customer.If Govt directly give subsidy, it’ll not help filling these objectives as impactfully. |

Your first priority should be to complete the subjects such as economy, polity, history, geography, environment and science. 2. All the good teachers already incorporate large amount of current affairs inside their course it self for example my economy course. 3. So beyond that, very fractional amount of current affairs need to be prepared by yourself. and even that is covered free of cost through special classes e.g. my win24 series next year for economy. 4. Additionally, you can take help of the monthly current affairs magazines such as this https://unacademy.com/content/upsc/downloads/for completing the current affairs of earlier months.ideally for pre-2024, u should read from 1/1/2022 onwards ke magazines (=two calendar years).5. there is no need to make a Notes out of current affairs as such because most of the free monthly magazines will be covering it. However, if you find some unique information relevant for your optional-subject, interview questions related to your graduation or your domicile state or Ethics or Essay then you should note it down from newspaper. otherwise no need to note it down. 6. You should also keep habit of reading the newspaper columns for at least four months to cultivate vocabulary e.g. |

For 2025 aspirants, My next
Live course for economy-prelims starting from 15th August (PCB12) and then mains-economy from 3rd October. Presently, I am putting my time and effort for the Mains-2024 students. So better to study economy live from 15th august. Until then prepare other subjects from unacademy teachers, but if your subscription is expiring sooner than Dec’24, then better to finish via recoded course PCB11 and QEP3. u can find links/schedule at https://unacademy.com/@mrunal.org (PS: 15th aug walla course will not be visible until 7-10 days before launch date, due to server settings.) |
| D2744 – Kashish Shah | I have completed my graduation in Psychology & it is my optional as well. I have covered my optional in 2021 from Unacademy from Devshree Singh. Currently, Devshree Singh is no longer associated with Unacademy, but I am watching her recorded lectures. However, the technical team is deleting her old videos. I have bought the optional subscription to watch her lectures. I request you, please don’t delete her old courses.
At the same time, I am also confused whether I should go ahead with Psychology or switch to Anthropology because it is scoring & UPSC rankers have that optional who belong to Top 10 + Himabindu Ma’am teaches the course in structured manner, giving daily answer writing questions, discussing 500 PYQ’s also. I am confused. I request you to guide me. |
As per the legal agreements with the educators, when they leave the company, we are required to delete their courses from server, after certain years.
(2) since your graduation is also Psychology and you have studied a lot, so I would not suggest you to change the subject, just for the lack of teacher. Otherwise, you will have to start from scratch with the new subject, that is not an efficient use of your time and mental resources. |

if this is your first attempt, then better to systematically complete the coaching for UPSC first, otherwise, trying to juggling multiple exams, you will not be able to perform well in any of them because randomly you will have to take break from upsc lectures to prepare for those random things for other exam in an incoherent manner.

Statistical interpretation about the success rate of individual optional Subject = it is a propaganda spread by the coaching classes to sell their courses for the given subject.

If you try to make new note out of it, you will become tired and run out of time, because then you will be left with less time to complete other subjects.So ideally if at all you want to make notesthen you should give first priority to make notes for optional subject and not for general studies subject. Having said that, I am not be preventing you from making notes on economy, but you need to consider the availability of time. 2) if this is your first attempt, then better to systematically complete the coaching and syllabus for UPSC first if u fail then from attempt#2, start giving plan-B exams. , otherwise, trying to juggling multiple exams within first attempt = you will not be able to perform well in any of them because randomly you will have to take break from upsc lectures/mocks to prepare for those random GK for other exam in an incoherent manner. Then you are not find success nor even able to recover the money, you have spent on the UPSC coaching fees. 3) after completing a topic go thru its tpicwise PYQs. 1) Download the it https://unacademy.com/content/upsc/downloads/ NOTE: sometimes requires clicking individual magazine 2-3 times like 🛵 bajaj scooter after logging in |
| D2769 – Shobitsingh-672 | Sir can we skip monthly magazines and make running notes of daily current affair class ? How to give multiple revisions to subject we have covered once? What can be the best schedule for such revisions? |
1) You’ll get exhausted both physically and mentally, if u start doing self notes making of daily current affairs.
Only 10% paper is from last 1 year current – if we take average of 2018-2024 papers. So the return on investment is not good. if you want to make notes, then first make it for the optional subject. 2) first priority should be to complete all the subjects by dec’24/feb’25.. focus on revision from February to May month. |

How to shortlist optional subject given at timestamp 02 hours 07 minute onwards In this lecture https://unacademy.com/course/planner-for-2023-prelims-and-mains-136/DRN0ZLHX 2) i think foundation = mostly targetting 2026 ki audience with 1000+ hrs lectures. 3) core static subject like geography economy history polity. + maths/reasoning. |

Please reschedule the Optional timing so I can properly focus and take the GS classes.

Kindly do the needful action over this concern. watching recorded class of any subject is not what I am aiming here. | will forward ur request but Considering the online nature of batches, it is inevitable that there will be some overlap.

| D2779 – AVIJIT GUPTA | Good evening sir. Pcb10, Pillar 1d, page 278, topic -> subsidy from central govt in EPFO contribution, EPF scheme entitlement – It says – if the farm has up to 1000 employees But, Pcb11, Pillar 6d, page 1218, topic -> PM GARIB KALYAN, (table) social security -> it says if worker earning < ₹15,000 per month in a firm with <100 workers -> govt will pay 24% of his monthly wages into his EPFO account.Doubt – shouldn’t it be 1000 workers as mentioned in pillar 1d, or should it be 100 workers as mentioned in pillar 6d? |

| D2781 – 33JGEAAY9OAA | Sir,
I am currently pursuing a PhD in Cancer Biology. For a long time, I have wanted to prepare for the UPSC exam, especially the Forest Services, but I lacked proper guidance, the right time to start my preparation, and the affordability to join any coaching. So, I followed my academic journey, qualified for the CSIR-NET JRF, and now I am doing my PhD. However, deep down, I don’t want to make my career in this field. I want to become a civil servant. I started my preparation with YouTube lectures from Siddharth Arora Sir and Sudarshan Gujjar Sir in December 2023. Recently, I subscribed to the Unacademy Plus course and joined the Manzil batch to prepare in a structured way. I enrolled in the batch using my stipend money after careful consideration. I can manage about 4-5 hours of study daily for five days a week and about 10 hours on weekends. Is that enough? Is my decision the right one to prepare for this exam? I consider my PhD as plan B, which would help me get a job in the biotech industry or, if luck favors, become an assistant professor. |
Yes, that is good enough. All that is required from your side is discipline to finish the courses/mocks in timebound manner without backlogs. |

1) by 2026 / 2027, many existing economy topics may become redudants, many fresh things may get added, there may be changes in exam-trend/level of difficulty and variety in questions, so while I’m not preventing u from sitting in the existing course, but if you’ve of UPSC-2027 then sit in 2026-Sept or afterwards. if you’ve target of UPSC-2026 then sit in 2025-Sept or afterwards but if your subscription is expiring sooner than that, then come and sit in this 15th Aug course.secondly, person targetting 2026-27 shd utilize college time for 1) Getting some extra-curricular activities certificate for the interview biodata. 2) getting minimum first class in college exams because many of the plan-B exams like RBI Grade-B/UGCNET etc may require minium 55-60% (in general category).

1) topicwise PYQs dekho of both subjects. Accordingly, update your notes, if any topics are missing. here are url for 📕 Mains PYQ Topicwise (English hindi combined in single PDF) https://static.uacdn.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/06/21194726/Mains-Topicwise-PYQs-Booklet_Unacademy-v4-2.pdf📕Prelims PYQ Topicwise (English)https://static.uacdn.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/06/26200631/PYQ-v16-English-updated-June-2024.pdf📕Prelims PYQ Topicwise (Hindi)https://static.uacdn.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/06/27110811/PYQs-Hindi-v13.pdf 2) Rule of thumb: 1) if you can complete a topic by reading it for 20 minutes, then you should not watch the video for 40 minutes. Teacher may be offering the Video explanation for 40 minutes because he has to explain it to the weakest student of the class. If you’re not the weakest student, then you don’t have to go with it. 2) normally person should not watch more than five hour of lecture per day. Rest of the time should be utilised for Reading / self-studying. Make sure you are completing major landmarks such as if not, then u may have to shift some of the topics to post-prelims in june month e.g. world history, post-indpenedent india etc. 3) if you have paid subscription of the optional subject, then better to use its validity/duration to complete optional first, because the other things (e.g. science) are still manageable somewhat via self reading and free classes and Utube |

1) thehindu enough in that case.
2) nahi bhai. woh 2-3 attempt walle toppers have different priorities in preparation bcoz their static part already done and dusted in first attempt. if u’re starting then First complete core subjects like history, geography polity, economy. Annual current affairs of last one year is hardly 10% of the paper. Don’t spend 90% of your effort into it. |

Q1) Rule of thumb:1) if you can complete a topic by reading it for 20 minutes, then you should not watch the video for 40 minutes. Teacher may be offering the Video explanation for 40 minutes because he has to explain it to the weakest student of the class. If you’re not the weakest student, then you don’t have to go with it.2) normally person should not watch more than five hour of lecture per day. Rest of the time should be utilised for Reading / self-studying.Make sure you are completing major landmarks such as optional by December-2023 most of the GS by Feb-2023if not, then u may have to shift some of the topics to post-prelims in june month e.g. world history, post-indpenedent india etc. 3) if you have paid subscription of the optional subject, then better to use its validity/duration to complete optional first, because the other things (e.g. science) are still manageable somewhat via self reading and free classes and Utube Q2) first priority, be given to completing the core subject subjects that are geography, history, economy, and polity. booklist varies from subject to subject. In case of economy, need not read /or buy any Books. Just wait for my classes from 15th Aug- i’ll give the handouts in it. |

| D2837 – G chaudhary | sir, I’d like to express my sincere gratitude for making economics easier and clear. As I target the UPSC 2025 exam with my subscription ending on August 15th, Disruptions at home have led me to decide to join SPIPA. While my estimated score suggests i think I’ve cleared the prelims, I understand this platform might not be the suitable for SPIPA guidance. However, I would be incredibly grateful if you could advise on efficient preparation for the SPIPA essay section. and sir can i go for english or gujarati, is there any language advantage? | – Since the time will be very less to prepare for the SPIPA Essay, at least go through the readymade books by Arihant / Spectrum on book of essay. – While it may not greatly improve your skill, but it will give you some starting pointers to write for any essay. – also go thru this 7 hr marathon https://youtu.be/61oP6u2snNo?si=DFxVHnWgsCLosnVz don’t finish it in one go daily. Listen to it while eating lunch/dinner for slowly absorbing. – SPIPA papers checked by senior unbiaed people.

Which of the following are included in the definition of Narrow Money? 1. Currency with the public 2. Demand deposits 3. ‘Other’ deposits with Reserve Bank of India 4. Banker’s deposits with Reserve Bank of India Select the correct answer using the code given below: (a) 1, 2 and 4 (b) 1 and 2 only (c) 1, 2 and 3 (d) 3 and 4 only In class discussion our ans is 1 and 2 only..but in official answer of cds it is mentioned 1,2 and 3..please guide me on this question.thank you. |
🙋🏼♀️ Error/FAQ/Economy: your Pillar1A2 handout’s formulas for M1 / Narrow money is not matching with RBI website / random google websites.
Ans. The Formulas for M1-M4, Broad/Narrow money in my handout are based on page 38-39 of NCERT Textbook Ref: https://ncert.nic.in/ncerts/l/leec103.pdf Abhi usmein RBI ke real-life formule ki PHD will make the things overcomplicated without any incremental benefit in the exam. If NCERT M1-M4 formulas do not match with RBI website or XYZ website or book or mocktest, then there is nothing to worry. Because even if UPSC ask a question, you can file complain after the exam is over that options are debatable or wrong, and then UPSC will cancel it- Just like they have done with other debatable questions in recent past. Counter-argument: UPSC CDS exam had chosen different answer in the official answerkey. My reply: that’s bcoz candidates didn’t raise complaint within 7 days after exam, UPSC question-paper complaint portal at http://upsconline.nic.in/miscellaneous/QPRep/ |

| D2846 – Navneet Jain | Sir, I have attended your PCB6 Economy lectures during college days. I have read your handouts and taken weekly tests. Now i have full fledged started preparing for UPSC. I have joined Manzil Batch and I am targeting for 2025 exam. Do i need to attend your lectures starting from 15th August 2024. (PCB 11) | PCB6 ke baad much water has flown under the bridge in terms of the exam difficulty, so I had to update a lot of things particularly related to Sharemarket and government schemes.
So even if you’re not attending the video lectures again, at least download the latest hangouts and read them, and where you find difficulty watch lecture. secondly do attend the mains economy QEP5 (starting from 3rd oct)- LIVE mode. |
| D2847 – Neha bidhuri | good evening sir , I wanted to ask about recordings that as my subscription will end in oct do I still have access to the classes I have already done. so I can take them again or not. | What is the subscription is over then Video access will be stopped. but u can download the handouts and revise from it. |

Almost everyone is in the same boat because everyone expected that prelims 2024 paper will be very tough. Just like 2023, so they were focusing more on it.
need not take stress.Go through the mains papers peacefully again, in topic wise manner. https://static.uacdn.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/06/21194726/Mains-Topicwise-PYQs-Booklet_Unacademy-v4-2.pdf you will realise that 60-80% of the GS paper is repeatative recycled points. And even economy, many of the questions can be managed by recycling the things you have learnt from prelims course. finish my ongoing QEP4-economy then u’ll realise this. https://unacademy.com/course/mrunals-economy-for-upsc-mains-2024-qep4-economy/8BGHDWZJ so in a systamic manner finish them core topics, with 5-7 writable points for each. and even with 100% syllabus completiton, lot depends on what gets asked on exam day. roadmap given here https://youtu.be/DRorb5TquXA?si=cJNxKdUUMiCOgr3i Those who’ve cleared the Mains are not super intelligent people. pretty much everyone simply mugging up some PDF files. so don’t doubt yourself. it’s everyone’s game. koi bhi topper bnn saktaa hai. best wishes |
| D2849 – anu sharma | Hello sir, I’ve just completed my graduation and this year 2024 was my first attempt, i believe I was unsuccessful because I relied too much on last three years cutoff and thought 60 questions was enough and I didn’t do too much risk taking, also due to lack of experience I can say and getting emotional in some questions I made silly mistakes. Calculating from our key I got 88 marks. Sir my doubt is I’ve been a free learner of unacademy since my 2nd year and I’ve read the course for all subjects, focused on all classes on both platform and YouTube. But i was able to get to only the margin situation in cutoff. Sir you tell many a times in your videos that some aspirants score so high ~130 in gs but fail in csat. Sir how do I also can score higher in my next prelims in GS, I do not wish to be in the same situation of margin pass or fail. What all steps I must take and what points can help me increase my marks in gs. Also I might not be possible to give solutions without my complete situation but please also recommend some loopholes which I must also have missed and should’ve focused on them for eg some I identified were- because of my ongoing degree (lack of discipline ) I did not read newspaper which I will improve from now on. Thank you sir for listening to my situation. |
88 is a decent score for first attempt.
You should spend the present time for completing the mains syllabus with notes making, including my latest mains economy course. And once that is done, u May also spend time doing some Plan B exams/PG etc. bcoz with 88 u don’t have to spend whole year reading laxmikanth again. so utilize your time for productive purpose I cannot think of any secret booklist to give you bcz most of the paper was from the routine book only. but do go thru this video https://youtu.be/400cFX2b7eg?si=j4uzKQ2Xd3LPBr4v for CSAt = finish madhukar sir course. |

Mujhe doubt nhi hote puchne ko… Kabhi kabhi aisa dekh k aur soch k demotivation sa lagta hai. Aur mujhe doubt nhi hote jada kuch bhi ,pdhta hu mai phir bhi. To kya doubt na hona means ki mai achhe se nhi pdha raha hu ??? |
yes then u’ll ideal topper material. kyoki u’re race ka ghodaa who prepares without engaging in faaltu-ki charchaa/phd.Do not let the other students trip you into inferiority complex.

1.Sir, mera 3,4 subject complete ho gya hai aur 1 class chal rha hai.. mujhe problem ho rhi hai sare subjects ko pdhne me … Time nhi nikal pata sab subject ko pdhne k liye.. plz itne subject ko kaise pdhu jo complete ho gye hai ? |
Rule of thumb:
1) if you can complete a topic by reading it for 20 minutes, then you should not watch the video for 40 minutes. Teacher may be offering the Video explanation for 40 minutes because he has to explain it to the weakest student of the class. If you’re not the weakest student, then you don’t have to go with it. 2) normally person should not watch more than five hour of lecture per day. Rest of the time should be utilised for Reading / self-studying. Make sure you are completing major landmarks such as if not, then u may have to shift some of the topics to post-prelims in june month e.g. world history, post-indpenedent india etc. 3) if you have paid subscription of the optional subject, then better to use its validity/duration to complete optional first, because the other things (e.g. science) are still manageable somewhat via self reading and free classes and Utube. ● It takes some time to get used to the way MCQs are formed in UPSC. It basically involves changing of certain keywords and going to elimination method. Once you get a hang of it becomes very fast to tick or skip the answers. ● Those getting poorer scores are because |

| D2863 – Shadab | Hello sir, my doubt is although I read newspaper(The hindu) since beginning of my preparation but then also I face problem in sorting out articles,as to which article would be used for which paper according to our syllabus and how to extract only the relevant things from the article. | For that, you have to first complete core syllabus for pre+mains + multiple times go thru topicwise PYQs. Then you will develop the inner capacity to appreciate what topics are important for the scope of exams from the given newspaper

| D2864 – Harsh | ❤️🙏🙏 ❤️ Hello sir, We have to write ✍️ answers in hindi that’s why It is getting difficult to fast reading with translate into Hindi of handout.. Can u also give mains handout in hindi. Please 🙏 |
sadly it is Difficult for me, to maintain two set of handouts one in hindi and one in english…and continue updating them parallelly. bcoz i do this work myself and don’t rely on kaamchor content writers who only know how to cutpaste from chatGPT. isliye meri majboori hai. Therefore, to keep my life, simple, I have adopted this way for the time being.
secondly, if i made pure hindi ka handout for economy mains it’ll be difficult to memorize / process it for learner. kyoki economy, anthropolgy, science, polity = these are some of the subject. If you read them in English, you will be able to understand and memorise faster than those handouts made in pure कलिष्ठ हिन्दी. Lastly, what will you do in essay writing? Is there a book that comprehensive keep all the points in Hindi for the types of essays that’s asked in real UPSC? ultimately, One needs to have the capacity to write the things from his own mind in Hindi from the concepts that he has learnt in English. |
| D2865 – Piyush Singh | Sir I am final year engineering student,and want to give attempt in 2025. I have completed pcb11 during summer vacation. I want to cover mains portion from QEP5 which will held during pcb12. Can I do this because I want to cover other prelims subject like polity and history? Or should I have to watch your ongoing QEP course. I do not get much time due to college study. |
Then for u it will be better to come in QEP5 (3rd oct) because it will be more updated with the latest trend of Mains-2024 exam which is going to be held in September. |
| D2866 – PJPJ-7802 | Sir, I have chosen English as medium for Prelims and Mains Test. Now during filling the DAF-I form, there is an option to choose either English or Hindi as a medium during interview. I am more comfortable in Hindi than English while explaining things. Also, I have done my whole graduation in English itself. So what medium should I choose. What could be the scenarios in this case.
Also sir in this Google form there is no option for NOA in question 1, so I am choosing option 1 as it is compulsory field. Thank You Sir |
My advice is give it in English.
bcoz, my experiance as mock interview panelists has been those giving average quality answers in toota-foota english (in mock interview) managed to get better scores in real interrview compared to those giving in hindi/gujarat. |

For polity which book to follow for mains apart from laxmikant or can we rely on current affairs of polity in last year governance ke liye kaha se padhe…from where to cover governance for mains and what source to refer for disaster managment and ethics. |
1) considering fragmented nature of history questions being asked in the Mains examination, there is no single book that will help help you better to complete the PowerPoint of the pratik sir in selective fashion in ths QEP course.

| D2872 – Vandini | My name is vandini , I’m confused in choosing the optional subject I have done my graduation in commerce stream . But all th crucial years of college in which the major chunk of commerce and accountancy were taught in online mode , and I’m not confident in that aspect , Intially I decide to choose philosophy as I’m interested in theory subjects and also I was interested in that subject and also because it’s mainly static . I want to choose ifs as my first career option and also next year in 2025 I want to enroll myself in masters in international relations ( considering my abilities I’ll give my first attempt in 2025 but I’m not that confident so I want to enroll myself in further academics) and So I. Have to study some part of pol sci and international relations in order to prepare for the entrance , so I decided to choose psir and I was taking classes for psir but somewhere I’m scared of the subject as it’s my first time studying this and Mai thoda overthink krrhi hu but mujhe darr lgrha hai . Quotes aur bhut zayda current hoga . Please give me some advise | known devil is better than unknown devil. in CSE-2020 toppers with commerce = 27/210 = 13% success rate toppers with PSIR = 154/1863 = 8% success rate. toppers with philosophy = 20.If you’re a commerce graduate then Why not take Commerce as an optional that can also help you in State PSC exams for commercial tax inspectors / excise asst. commissioners / accounts officer class-1 etc?Even if you did not study commerce seriously during college years, enough guidance/material available in today’s age. And Commerce is also among decent optional subject, giving good results. The choice of optional subject has no bearing on your service choice. Even if you opt for foreign service as first preference, the Interview panel is not going to grill you for 30 minutes on foreign relations / IR. they’ll ask u other qs from ur biodata as well. |
