How the course works

From live class to stronger Mains answers.

Each layer has a clear place: learn the topic, connect it to PYQs, write, receive feedback, and return to it in revision.
  1. Attend the live class

    Build the concept with Dr. Komal before testing it.

  2. Revise the material

    Use the recording, board work, notes and references after class.

  3. Connect the topic to PYQs

    See how UPSC has framed the same idea in previous papers.

  4. Write and submit

    Move from topic practice to subject-wise and full-length papers.

  5. Use the evaluation

    Improve structure, diagrams, content selection and timing.

  6. Revise both papers

    Bring Paper I and Paper II together through mocks and a final plan.
