Dr T ShubhamangalaAll India Rank 147, UPSC CSE 2017 Topper

I got 147 rank in UPSC civil service exam. I had used ClearIAS Prelims Test series and it was extremely useful. I have a 3.5-year-old child. I know how I used to feed him with one hand and read and give your test in another.

Avneet PuniaAll India Rank 356, UPSC CSE 2016 Topper

ClearIAS was the first UPSC preparation app I downloaded on my phone and I needed no other online help after that. Thank you so much ClearIAS!

Before waiting to finish all your topics, do as many mock tests as possible. Once your brain gets the idea of how to guess intelligently, later studies will further help, thus maximising your prelims marks.

Sunil GeorgeAll India Rank 587, UPSC CSE 2015 Topper

The prelims online mock tests by ClearIAS were of great help to me. I was able to evaluate my performance after every test. It allowed me to understand my weak areas, work more on them, and improve upon them.

Working 24*7 in the police for the last 5 years and been out of touch with the preparation, I took the guidance from your website, especially the ClearIAS prelims test series. I bought it and found it to be the best available online.
