Your optional subject can change whole game for u……….If it is philosophy



Exam pattern have changed. I have appeared in this exam with two optional subjects. I had History and Philosophy as optional. I got gud marks in philosophy so that I kept philosophy as my optional subject in new pattern. I got two interview calls in old pattern exam.

I could not get an interview call in 2014.This was due to very less marks in Philosophy. It was only 181 out of 500.With such a low marks in optional; I think no one can get an interview call. I thought to change my optional. But I kept it. One of my friend got 313 marks in philosophy and he got selected last year. I asked him what have you written in exam. From where you read philosophy??
  
He told me that he read notes of Nischay IAS Accademy’s Yaswant Sir. I went delhi to get Sir’s notes.Unfortunately I could  not find his notes in market.I searched coaching in Mukhrjee Nagar.I found his coaching and met sir.Sir provided me his notes and I attended contemporary and social political philosophy classes there for four days.These classes and notes helped me a lot.I wrote some answers and answers were checked by Sir.Sir gave me personal attention.I m very thankful to him.

I wrote answers comparing different philosophies. For example “What is ‘Dravya’ in Jain Philosophy?”I wrote abt Dravya of Vaisheshik,Aristotle,Plato etc .I wrote answers this time in such a way.I read philosophy notes of Drishti and Patanjali also.I read Rammurti Pathak,B K Lal,Ved Prakash Verma books.I still don’t know how much marks will get in Philosophy.But,I m expecting gud marks. After mains examination,I was sure abt interview call.
Hope it will help you….

    1. If we see success ratio,size of syllabus,study material and availability of guidance ,then Hindi literature is a Gud subject.But if u comfortable with political science then choose it...

      Hope it will help u to choose ur subject.

    2. Thnx a lot..
      My intuition was also in favour of Hindi literature as it is a scoring subject. The only confusion was due to helping nature of psir in gs and interview. But i think Hindi Lit will be better.

      Read ur interview.. u r marvellous.. expecting ur name in the starting page of result list.
