    Friend,
    UPSC exams being one of the most respectable and high profile of the country,require a lot of dedication.
    You can surely better them,only if you put lots of efforts.
    For you,i would like to advice that you must start prepare yourself for the prelims which are mostly based on general study and awareness,and wont affect your profession much.
    and as soon as you crack the prelims,you can ask your office for leave for couple of months and prepare hard for the 'mains'.
    work hard n u wl succeed.
    Gd luck.

    dear friend,


    upsc exam required lot of time and concentration to get.
    if you can give only 5-6 hour per day, which requires much more dedication and full of involvement on it you can get success in upsc exam.
    you required to first prepare for prelims and which is based on general awareness and general studies. You can refer different magazines for upsc.


    best of luck. dear friend,

    UPSC exam is the most respectable and most difficult exam in India.It has got preliminary and mains exam.If some one get selected for mains exam he will hardly get 5 months for the preparation of mains exam which is mostly two optional subjects. Optional subjects are the only place where participant can score most marks as he has chosen the subjects and it needs more than 5 months for the perfect preparation. So, I think you should simultaneously prepare your optional and preliminary subjects.And I think its quite difficult to do a full time job and prepare for UPSC.But still if you are confident and determined and hard working u can do anything how hard the situation is..All the best.

    Hello,

    There is no such boundations that you cannot clear. first you need to do is to make your view very clear and your goal in the life. In fact frankly speaking I will suggest you, its better you ask this Question to yourself that whether do you have the potential then go for it....
    Yaar in todays world i think you cannot stick to one thing and you got to be multi Talented. So I would suggest just go for it. but please do not take this exams lightly and make some serious preparation with and perfect timetable and surely you could crack it.

    My friend,
    We know that UPSC is one of the most respectable and high level exams of this country which needs too much effort, dedication and sincerity and to do all of these things you will need appropriate time as you said you works for an insurance company it is difficult to find out that.
    so i would like to advise you that after finishing your work you can start your study in home as over time if you want to carry out your job too. this could be best option for you in my point of view and i hope you can do it .
    Thanks and good luck

    yes dear you can clear the exam,
    dear good preparation does not depend upon how much hours you study it depends upon the sufficient and time managed study,
    you should manage your time well so that every subject gets the proper time to do better preparation,
    also you should make time table of all subjects and give appropriate time for study to each subjects,
    solve practice papers daily,

    Hi....friend

    It is so tough to balance both at the same time ..

    Because upsc is not a minor exam

    To grab upsc exam you have to study continuously at least 4 to 5 hours

    But you do not have enough time to prepare

    So go for prepare upsc exam and change your job to part time job instead of

    full time

    Then there may be chance to achieve in upsc exme

    any way good luck...

    UPSC exams being one among the foremost respectable and status of the country,require plenty of dedication.
    you'll be able to sure higher them,only if you place countless efforts.
    For you,i would prefer to recommendation that you just should begin prepare yourself for the prelims that area unit largely supported general study and awareness,and wont have an effect on your profession a lot of.
    and as shortly as you crack the prelims,you can raise your workplace for leave for number of months and prepare onerous for the 'mains'.
    work flat out and you'll succeed.
    upsc examination needed ton of your time and concentration to urge.
    if you'll be able to offer solely 5-6 hour per day, which needs far more dedication and jam-packed with involvement on that you'll be able to get success in upsc examination.
    you needed to initial brace oneself for prelims and that relies on general awareness and general studies. you'll be able to refer totally different magazines for upsc.

    UPSC examination is that the most respectable and most tough examination in Asian country.It has got preliminary and mains examination.If some one get elect for mains examination he can hardly get five months for the preparation of mains examination that is usually 2 ex gratia subjects. ex gratia subjects area unit the sole place wherever participant will score most marks as he has chosen the themes and it desires quite five months for the right preparation. So, i believe you must at the same time prepare your ex gratia and preliminary subjects.And I assume its quite tough to try and do a full time job and brace oneself for UPSC.But still if you're assured and determined and onerous operating u will do something however onerous the case is.

    Yes friend, You can clear or not. Both things is directly depends upon you.

    It is depends upon your hard work.

    First of all I would like to mention that civil service exam is the toughest exam and very hard to crack.

    So friend you would have need of time to crack the civil service exam.

    So for the preparation of civil service exam you will have to reduce your working time.

    Make the study plan and follow it.

    You can also join any coaching for the preparation of CSE exam
