How they prepared for UPSC CSE 2022
I come from a family of bureaucrats and was always drawn to the idea of serving the nation. I pursued my Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering from IIT Hyderabad and was part of the college's debate team. During my college days, I was exposed to various social issues and was inspired to make a difference.
My study plan was quite rigorous and involved creating a detailed schedule for each day. I would wake up at 5 am every day and start with a 30-minute workout followed by a 1-hour breakfast break. I would then dedicate 4-5 hours to studying, taking regular breaks in between. I would focus on one subject at a time and make sure to revise all the topics before moving on to the next one.
The biggest challenge I faced during my preparation was time management. With a busy schedule and limited time, it was difficult to balance my studies with other activities. I also faced self-doubt and anxiety at times, but I managed to overcome them with the help of my friends and family.
My interview experience was quite challenging. I was asked a range of questions, from general knowledge to specific topics related to my subject. I made sure to stay calm and composed throughout the interview and answered each question to the best of my ability.
Securing AIR 217 in the UPSC CSE 2022 exam was a dream come true for me. It was a result of my hard work, dedication, and perseverance. I am proud to be a part of the IAS and look forward to serving the nation to the best of my abilities.\n\n### Conclusion My journey to becoming an IAS officer has been a long and challenging one. But it has also been incredibly rewarding. I hope that my story can inspire others to pursue their dreams and never give up on their goals.
