So now tell me, Adra, what is the moment that you have realized to be the part of Civil Service? I mean, any background stories for that?
It's only because of my parents, Kavya. Because they are the ones who planted the seed of the service. Later, switching on to that, I started loving the UPSD. And now I started preparing for that. You know that I am the person who looks to do the service. So then I thought, why not choose the service? So then I started preparing myself. And later it becomes my biggest dream. And now I'm very much eager to step into my patience

Oh, that's so cooladra. So yearly, one exam will be conducted, right? So can you give me an outline for the selection process to get into the civil service exam?
Eskaviershire first of all everyone should have a clear idea about what the civil service exam pattern is because only that will help them a lot so first of all it has been partly divided into two things and the first one is preliminary and the second one is mains and the of papers have been splitted into like paper A and B then paper one to seven so the paper A has compulsory Indian language and then paper B as we all know that it's an English language then from paper one to seven the paper one has an essay and from two to five is questions regarding the general studies and then paper six and seven contains optional subjects like what we are in and these are the steps and then the final process will be done only through the interviews AMAs is covered

Okay. Now, Adra, if you don't mind, can you share what are the basic tactics or strategies that you follow for studying the portions?
Yeah, kavya but it's not a strategy, but the things that I used to follow so first of all, I used to keep notes for all the topics which I go through. And I also suggest keeping a pen and paper is much better than typing in mobile laptops and et cetera. And the another thing that I want to say is that we would have heard that the morning time is more good for studying as it is scientifically proven

Exactly. Adra, many of these peoples are often forgetting to look after their health, which is more important. Definitely. So, Adriana, I would like to know that that these syllabus are too hectic for an average student
Then being in a positive mindset is very important for an UPSC aspirant Kavya and as well as to each and every individual who want to become as a civil service aspiring
