Optional Foundation 2023 programs by ForumIAS
Importance of an optional cannot be over stated in UPSC civil services examination. Selecting an optional should be based primarily on interest in the subject, but past trends and convergence of syllabus with general studies as well as availability of a guide or mentor should also be considered. The foundation course will be conducted keeping that student in mind that is new to the discipline of Optional. That way, conceptual clarity will be the starting point.
Each and every topic will be meticulously discussed throughout the course in light of most credible works so that no important/relevant aspect will be overlooked. So together we will travel from the scratch all the way till the nuances of the theme under discussion.
The classes will be a unique blend of conceptual explanation and clarification with the help of examples from daily life as well as a robust analysis of the themes in the light of previous year questions. It will be a peerless combination of breadth and depth that will significantly add to the likelihood of getting a higher score in the optional paper.
