INTENSIVE MAINS ANSWER WRITING FOR IAS MAINS, 2022

MAINS ANSWER WRITING

This program is based on the concept of the Compounding effect. The compound effect is the strategy of reaping huge rewards from small, seemingly insignificant actions. Writing 3 answers daily may seem a very small task. But in the long run it will drastically improve your answer quality and help in clearing IAS Mains exam.

Features of program

  • Daily 3 questions based on predefined plan
  • 12 sectional General Studies half length tests and 5 sectional essay tests
  • Time bound copy evaluation 
  • Cover the Essay and General Studies Syllabus within 12 weeks
  • One on one session with mentors 
  • Evaluation by well experienced team 
  • Well experienced mentors for doubt clearance and guidance 
  • Approach answers for revision 
  • Answer enriching tips, keywords, examples, case studies, statistics 

Why this program?

UPSC is reducing the number of days between Prelims and Mains. For IAS Mains you have to prepare for 7 papers and the syllabus is vast. If you are not well prepared for IAS Mains before attempting prelims, your chances to clear IAS Mains are very less. So, do not waste your precious time. With this program you can cover the Essay and General Studies Syllabus within 12 weeks.

Only reading books and notes is not enough to score good marks in IAS mains exam. Following are main dimensions of High Scoring Answer–

  • Context
  • Structuring
  • Presentation
  • Introduction
  • Conclusion
  • Language Skills
  • Handwriting
  • Content

Most coaching institutions and students invest the majority of their time in developing Content i.e. reading more and more books, notes, PDFs. So, other dimensions remain neglected. With a daily answer writing program, we will help you to develop all dimensions.

HOW IT WILL WORK?

  • Students will receive 3 Questions based on the sub-topic of the day at 11 AM daily. 
  • Then, students can attempt those questions on a plain A4 size sheet of paper with margins on both sides or you can use the QcA booklet provided by us.
  • After attempting questions, students should scan it as a PDF and send this to us on telegram. 
  • Answers will be evaluated within 24 hours after you submit the answer.
  • Copies are evaluated by our well-experienced team members, who earlier appeared CSE interviews.
  • If you have any difficulty in answer writing, you can talk to mentors anytime.

Testimonials- What our Students Say

Manoj Kharde, Assistant Commandant

Hello,

I came in contact with Dr Gaurav Sir , who is part of UPSC Super Simplified, after my mains examination of 2020. I had done very badly in my mains, so I needed personal mentor who could help me to improve my answer writing speed, structure and overall marks in GS. Dr Gaurav Sir provided me support for all of this. He probably works with Japanese technique called KAI ZEN which is about gradual improvement on daily basis. Although I started with only 2 Questions daily. It helped me to complete my syllabus and remove fear of answer writing completely.

Last but not the least Dr Gaurav Sir provides personal support for all u r doubts and he even calls u when u failed to do answer writing. I am not aware of such hand holding in big gaint classes.

Thank and Regards ,

Manoj Bhanudas Kharde,

Assistant Commandant CAPF 2019.

I am a student of upsc super simplified and I have felt that it is one of the most worthy institutes which provide high quality guidance and mentorship for the UPSC aspirants and that too in a very affordable price.

The online answer writting gives an opportunity to the aspirants who belong to far off places and remote areas or those who are working professionals,who can’t come to Delhi for any reason to ace their preparation from the comforts of their home.

Moreover the one to one personal assistance which I get from Gaurav sir is fantastic.so.if you want to go for answer writings practice then you can surely rely on upsc super simplified.
