    There is no any sort way for clear IAS examination. You can clear it without joining any coaching
    but you need to do very hard work. As you say you want to clear it in one year. If you have following
    specification then of course you can clear it in one year.

    1. You have very good communication skill
    2. You have very high command on English and Hindi literature
    3. You are good in your Subject as you say that is History
    4. You are fully updated with current general happening
    5. You are a general aware person
    So if you have all this things or you can make a good command on all this
    things in one year without joining any institute then you can clear your
    IAS. Otherwise it is not possible.

    dear friend,

    UPSC Exams are one of the tough Exams. You can clear it without any coaching, For that you need hard with quality study.
    for preparation first manage your time table. Go ahead according to Syllabus.
    Read 6th to 12th NCERT books. Improve your GK and English. keep reading news papers and magazines. Solving Previous year question papers is also an important part of preparation.

    you can download previous year question papers from Following links:

    Re: How to crack UPSC exam in my first attempt without taking any coaching? I live in Delhi.

    dear,

    here are some tips for you to crack the exam,in first attempt.



    How to crack Civil Services Exams (IAS,IPS,IFS) in first attempt...!

    The IAS Exam in 2012 will be special .Not only will it feature the new CSAT syllabus introduced from 2011 onwards but also the pattern will be different from the 2011 IAS exam. This hub explains all the details relating to the 2012 IAS Exam including the procedure, syllabus, possible exam pattern, books to refer, and tips to crack the 2012 IAS exam.


    Here is some basic and important information about the Prelims if you intend to appear for the ias exam in 2012.

    The IAS Prelims will be objective in nature and consist of two papers compulsory to all
    Most questions carry a negative penalty or negative marking of 0.33 marks for each wrong answer
    Each paper will of 200 marks each and 2 hours in duration. The number of questions in each paper is not fixed and can vary
    every year
    You have to appear for both papers, held on the same day, for your papers to be checked
    Even if you appear for one paper, your attempt is counted
    If you merely apply for the Prelims but do not appear for the exam then your attempt is not counted


    tips .

    * Read one good newspaper and two magazines for current affairs apart from Manorama Year Book for GK and Current Events.

    Instead of referring multiple magazines and newspapers, I suggest you just read one good newspaper and one or two magazines for current affairs. The Hindu is very reputed English daily and if you can get hold of it, go for it otherwise read The Indian Express/TIMES OF INDIA.



    As far as magazines are concerned, Civil Services Chronicle or civil services Times are both good magazines for current affairs and reading one will be enough. But you should surely read Manorama Year Book for not just current affairs but more importantly to build your General Knowledge.



    * Read the past 5 years solved question papers before and after reading a topic.

    The best way to track your progress is to refer the past five years questions whenever you start a new topic. This way you know what's important and should be stressed upon. After you finish reading that topic refer the questions from that topic again and check if you can answer all of them or not.

    This way you know if you have left out some important points in the first reading and can attempt course correction immediately instead of waiting till the fag end of your preparation for IAS Exam in 2012.



    * covered the scoring topics early

    You shouldn't just study the first topic that you come across. Rather, prioritize and plan. Topics like GK, Polity, Maps can be prepared quickly and fetch easy marks. Tackle them early to pocket 30-40 marks even before you step into the exam hall.



    * make micro notes that you could go through quickly before the prelims

    Aspirants planning to prepare for the 2012 IAS Exam should make it a habit of writing important current event and GK snippets in a diary, register or flip cards on a daily basis which you can go through 15 or 20 days before the Prelims.





    Best Of Luck !!
