Geography is one subject from which every year 5-8 questions come in the UPSC prelims and at least 3-5 questions in Mains exam. It is an interdisciplinary subject with direct references to economics, environment and IR. In fact, studying it well will certainly help you with IR as well as Environment as well. Mapping is a key aspect as well, we will discuss as well.
This class will clarify all your doubts about the UPSC Geo preparation! It goes into all the details of What, How, When, Practice Questions, PYQs, mapping and note making.
Here are Manuj Jindal's Sources for Geography:
Answer Writing Book:
store.anujjindal.in/upsc-answ...
WHAT (Books, YT Channels, Online sources, Newspapers, NCERTs):
1. NCERT books for geography: Physical Geography, India Physical Geography, Human Geography,
2. Goh Cheng Leong Book
3. Vision IAS PT 365 and IR 365 will be helpful
4. PMFIAS notes for revision ONLY
5. Mrunal and Solanki ma'am Videos on youtube. Use YT extensively.
6. Print out maps and get Oxford Atlas for practice. Divide world maps into small regional segments, such as the Mediterranean region, and master each region separately. Becomes easier to read and study that way.
WHEN:
Study Geography as one of the first 4 subjects in your UPSC prep (after environment, economics and polity) . You can spend up to 1-1/5 months mastering it. If you read 20-25 pages per day, you can definitely complete within 1.5 months, however, lot of revisions will be needed
