However, this is not important if any other subject fulfils points 1 &amp; 2. After choosing your optional, make sure that you immediately start studying for it. Aim that you are able to go through the reading of the entire basic books within the next few months.<\/li>\n<li><span class=\"d2edcug0 hpfvmrgz qv66sw1b c1et5uql lr9zc1uh jq4qci2q a3bd9o3v b1v8xokw oo9gr5id\">Right now, your priority should be on\u00a0<b>completing your basic books<\/b>.

Current affairs are an integral part of your UPSC exam as you will see many questions in Prelims that can be answered directly because of your awareness of CA. For example, the MPLAD Scheme that was previously asked was in news a lot of times because it was suspended during that time (Covid-19).<\/span><\/span>Ideally, a\u00a0<b>monthly compilation<\/b>\u00a0is preferred over yearly, because of the depth of information that can be covered.<\/li>\n<li><span class=\"d2edcug0 hpfvmrgz qv66sw1b c1et5uql lr9zc1uh jq4qci2q a3bd9o3v b1v8xokw oo9gr5id\">After you are done with the basic GS subjects, you can start attempting\u00a0<b>daily quizzes<\/b>\u00a0to solidify your knowledge.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"To_summarise_you_need_to_focus_on_these_things_for_the_exam_GS_Current_Affairs_Daily_Quiz_Optional\"><\/span><span class=\"d2edcug0 hpfvmrgz qv66sw1b c1et5uql lr9zc1uh jq4qci2q a3bd9o3v b1v8xokw oo9gr5id\">To summarise, you need to focus on these things for the exam:\u00a0<b>GS + Current Affairs + Daily Quiz + Optional<\/b><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span class=\"d2edcug0 hpfvmrgz qv66sw1b c1et5uql lr9zc1uh jq4qci2q a3bd9o3v b1v8xokw oo9gr5id\">You\u00a0<b>can add mocks to this list later when you are done with your syllabus<\/b>.
