I'm preparing for UPSC CSE year prelims. I have hours hours a day on weekdays and weekend hours on weekends. My optional is optional subject.
Build a 12-week plan that:
- Covers GS Paper 1 in this order of weight: Polity, Modern History, Economy, Geography, Environment, Art & Culture, Science & Tech.
- Keeps a fixed 45-minute daily slot for current affairs (The Hindu or Indian Express).
- Leaves every Sunday for one full-length mock test and its analysis.
- Has revision cycles in weeks 4, 8 and 11.
Format each week as a table: day, topic, source (Laxmikanth, Spectrum, NCERT class and chapter), and a three-question self-check.
Be realistic: if my hours can't cover the syllabus, say so and tell me what to cut.
