Last-Minute Tips – UPSC Civil Service Examination
Even after many times of revision, it is natural for the aspirants to panic right before the examination. The worry of not having studied enough kicks in.

Trust your preparation and believe that whatever you have studied till date is the best you could have done. Do not pick up a fresh topic to be studied just before the exam, there are slightest chances that you will remember any topic you study at the last moment.
Solve Mock Test Papers
Solving mock tests will help in boosting confidence. With 100 questions to be answered in one hour, it becomes important to manage time and at the same time ensure that the OMR sheet is shaded with the right answer. In order to boost confidence and learn time management, the best thing to do is solve as many papers as possible.
Stay Positive and Believe in Your Preparation
Most of the students fail to clear the preliminary examination despite having put in a lot of hard work in preparation. This mostly happens because of the lack of faith in oneself and negative self-talk. Â Right before the examination, it is essential to tell yourself that you have prepared enough and you, cannot go back in time and study more. Self-doubt and pessimism will not help you in the exam. It is good to prepare for the worst, but it is equally important to expect the best!
Revise! Revise! And Revise!
UPSC Prelims requires you to remember a lot of facts and figures. The only way to remember all the important points is to revise multiple times.
