How to cover GS Paper I and protect CSAT without burning revision time.

Official syllabus for this paper
  • Build a weekly loop: static subject + related current affairs the same day.
  • Use PYQs to decide depth — if a theme rarely appears, keep notes short.
  • Protect CSAT with a fixed weekly habit so Paper II never becomes a last-minute risk.
  • In the last 30–40 days, prioritise revision, mocks, and error notebooks over new books.
