Why the Essay matters

One paper every Mains candidate writes.

The UPSC Essay paper carries 250 of the 1,750 marks in the written Mains, and every candidate writes it, whatever their optional. A well-structured essay can lift your total; a weak one costs marks that are hard to win back elsewhere.

Audio report on every essay

A 5–10 minute audio from Dr. Agarwal on what worked, what was missing and how to plan it better.
