Optional Test Series

Optional Test Series 2025-26

In the UPSC IAS journey Optional subject plays a pivotal role and can significantly improve the UPSC CSE Mains Exam score and can increase the chances of candidate of being selected for the Personality Test. That’s why candidates are suggested to select their Optional wisely with utmost care and deliberations as it can make or break the name of a candidate to the list of UPSC CSE.

A candidate should pick its Optional subject as per hisinterest and not by looking at someone else because if you do that your chances of getting selected reduces as you will not be able to read that subject which you have taken as Optional as you do not have any interest in that subject.

As ‘Jack Ma’has appropriately said,“You should learn from your competitor, but never copy. You copy and die.”
