1. Optional subject (Because its faculty may not be available live for the whole year so you would benefit by asking the the doubts while it is being done live)
>Economy and polity (So you can understand their current affairs in a better manner from newspaper)> (Environment geography agriculture history-art
culture Ethics)> and at last stage Science Tech and current affairs.
2. Current affairs is not a separate subject it overlaps with the traditional six subjects that are Geography, environment, economy, polity&IR, history, science
technology. All the reputed teachers will teach both the theory as well as current affair embedded within their course itself. So this anxiety and Mania
among the students ke “Separately daily mereko 2 hrs current affairs krnaa hai”.... That should come at a later stage. First prioriy for a first attempt student
should be to finish the core subjects. Once you have finished the core subject including the analysis of its previous years papers then automatically you will
see how much current affairs is relevant in what parts of the subjects

3. one should not spend more than 30 to 40 hours a week watching lectures. the remaining time should be spent in actually reading the books and study
material (minimum reading list list is mentioned on the page 1 of your handout). No need to watch videos of things which can be easily understood by
simply reading the book
4. Other reasons why people unable to find time is because they spend two hours reading the newspaper/PIB/IDSA, they make a necessarily notes from
books which are already present in the format of revision notes (e.g. Laxmikanth), They watch videos of things which can be easily understood by simply
reading the book.
5. More details covered in my “Comprehensive Strategy 2021” video during Unacademy Summit. Please watch it at following URL:

- Reason#2: Priority of the exam is not clear. When a person is studying history, his brain starts to wander that I should do current affairs. When he is
studying current affairs from "X" source, brain starts to wander whether "Y" source will be better. Well self determination is required that I have taken of
this particular material so first I will finish this before anything else.
- Reason#3: Aashiqui. person is engaged in boyfriend/girlfriend/breakup tmaashaa. Some people clear the exam in first attempt, but for many it is a struggle
that takes multiple attempts. Those who are with you at present= will not necessarily remain with you by the time your struggle/attempts are over. So you
have to decide whether your career is important or your soulmate is more important.

Answers:
● Current affairs PDFs are supplements but not substitute for the Newspaper reading. Which is required for building the clean vocabulary, grammar and
language proficiency for the essay paper. You may also need to follow the newspaper to gather information about your state, graduation, hobbies related
questions for the UPSC interviews
● Also observe the topic wise previous year question papers automatically you will get the idea what type of information is more important and what is
useless. Then accordingly read or glance over the matter given in CA-PDF.
- Similarly IASParliament PDF files problem = while they give the polity material in a relatively crisp manner but in environment portion unnecessarily
bloating it with too much coverage.
- I do not have the time to compare and contrast dozen institutes CA-PDF files. Just download A few of them whichever you feel comfortable with you go for
it.

- No need to make notes from NCERT. No need to make notes out of the books which are already in the format of notes e.g. laxmikanth, spectrum, my own

- Whether to make notes in form of pen and paper or Digital that is up to your comfort level you will find toppers from both types.
- 2nd time= whole handout Before the brand quiz at the end of my course.
- 3rd time = whole handout, 2 weeks before the prelims. (incl. the FREE updates of Win21CSP series next year, Which will cover next year's budget and

- For other subjects, you may workout similar strategy yourself using the the books and material prescribed on page1 of the handout.

3. you can look at educators’ ranking and their total watch time, sit in a few lectures, it’ll give a good idea. And because you have already observed the
previous years question papers to have fairly good idea on whether they are teaching in an exam oriented manner or not. For a given subject, Which of the
educator is best and which of them is less good or “Watch this teacher’s lecture but do not watch that teacher’s lecture.” = I am unable to comment or give
opinion in that format, because I am a company employee.
4. Step3: one should not spend more than 30 to 40 hours a week watching lectures remaining time should be spent in actually reading the books and study
material (minimum reading list list is mentioned on the page 1 of your handout) Please see slide number 20 and 21 of following lecture And design your

Unacademy is continuously onboarding new educator's for the the optional subjects as well in future there could be teachers in this subject as well. You may also
send request at help@unacademy.com
- So, If you take up a subject which you have not studied in the graduation then it is going to take at anything between 4-8 months’ preparation to gain
mastery for it (Depending on how many hours you are investing on it.)
- The notion that Humanities subjects like sociology public administration political science have overlapping with the general studies = so we should take
them= It should not be your primary consideration. Because hardly in one or two question of GS Mains papers, you will get to you have the chance to show
your your optional mastery. Otherwise traditionally a lot of these optional subject matter deals with thinkers, theory, philosophical concepts not related to
general studies. If you dislike reading such things then it will be difficult for you to sit with the books for a long time.Then people simply rely on the
readymade coaching notes for optional subject, while they help finishing syllabus fast’ but not always guarantee best marks in the answer When the
evaluators are looking for more death then superficial bullet points .
- A known devil is better than an unknown Angel. So you have to weigh how Comfortable you are with your maths/medical
science/engineering/commerce/B.Sc graduation subject. You may be able to finish it much faster compared to selecting an unknown optional subject
Which you have not studied in graduation.
- On YouTube people will make all type of clickbait strategies like “Take off Anthropology subject it has very short syllabus and you can finish it within the
three months By reading just 3 books”. But Every subject has senior players who have studied more number of academic books beyond ‘prescribed
minimum list’, and prepared more better quality of points and notes, to get more marks in mains. So, this whole craze of ‘short syllabus’ also Need to be
taken with A Pinch of salt.
- Only if you are very weak in your college graduation subject, and want to explore some other optional subject then you may do so.
- At the end of the day there are toppers from every optional subject. Once I met a topper with SINDHI Optional subject (Whom every coaching wala advised
that he should take traditional subject like Political science sociology or public administration).
- If 200 candidates are appearing with law optional subject and only 20 are getting interview call then the remaining 180 are always going to bad mouth that
Page 83 of 105 (Plz turnover the page, as FAQ has more than one sub-questions)
Educational Queries in Mrunal’s Economy Course at Unacademy Plus (Batch PCB1) Discount Code: ‘Mrunal.org”
law is a bad subject. But, IS UPSC a rice distribution scheme of Government ke Everyone standing in the queue must get the 5 kilogram rice?
- To conclude
- 1) First priority select your graduation subject if you are comfortable with it
- 2) If you are not comfortable with your graduation subject for the graduation subject is not offered as a optional subject (e.g. Computer engineering,
pharmacy etc.) Then explore other subjects
- 3) Among those other subjects select the one in which you have some interest So that you can sit with it for a longer period of time, and some level of
guidence/strategy/booklist is available.
● So pick either one based on your personal taste / interest. Some failed candidates may say do not select public administration because papers are very
tough. Some failed candidates will say do not take sociology because a less number of candidates are given interview calls than polSci. Basically those who
do not get the interview call will bad mouth their optional subjects.
● But at the end of the day there are a good number of toppers from all three subjects. so it all depends on your personal interest because if you do not have
personal interest then you will feel very very bored to sit through the long hours of reading thick academic books of such subjects.
● Idea approach for old batch students = (original handout from your batch+ wincsp20 series ke Handout & powerpoints for updating it, available at

● No need to take separate printout of this new handout going in the present batch. Yes it contain some new current affairs for example Iran’s toman
currency but in future I will cover that in your Win20CSP handout as well. So, need not worry.

you will clear the exam in 2020 cycle itself incl. January’s Mains, but still you will have to prepare next year's budget for interview-stage, so do keepup with
win21CSP as well!

WHAT IS THE MEANING OF ALL THE EMOJIS USED IN YOUR HAND OUT?
- They are meant to to make your revision faster. For example tiger emoji usually comes in RBI related topics because tiger is in the logo of RBI.
- knife emoji usually denote "loans" (Because of knife in informal moneylenders hand)
- I cannot explain to you the meaning of all the emojis. Consider it a time-pass puzzle that is not important for the scope of exam. If you can decode it well
and good if you can't decode it, then don’t lose sleep over it.

Fuhrer, If you go for the Hindi translation of the economic questions asked in UPSC they are so cumbersomely translated it will even slow down your speed further.
So it is always advisable to tick the economy and science MCQs by reading the English version of it
If you wish to cultivate more vocabulary for Hindi economic terms then go for class10, class11 NCERT economy books in hindi medium.
Similarly you may read Economic survey, Yojana, Kurukshetra magazines (You don't have to read them page by page. How to read them is explained in the first
lecture)

IS THIS COURSE COVERING BOTH PRELIMS AND MAINS ECONOMY FOR GS?
Yes it is.
I'M PREPARING FOR STATEPSC EXAM, HOW TO USE YOUR ECONOMY COURSE?
- The fundamentals of economy such as monetary policy repo rate, direct indirect taxes, WTO human development etc remain valid and useful for all types of
competitive exams where economy is part of the syllabus.
- Accordingly you will have to make some modification in the economy preparation.
- For example they could ask about the state budget, state Government schemes etc., Then prepare them accordingly from the the Finance Department
website of your state

- 2nd time= whole handout Before the brand quiz at the end of my course
- For other subjects, you may workout similar status yourself using the the books and material.
DO I'VE TO MEMORIZE FACTS, CAN I PASS PRELIMS JUST WITH 'BASIC UNDERSTANDING OF ECONOMY CONCEPTS'?
- in the Handout I have given previous years UPSC questions under the respective topics. Upon solving those questions you will realise that many of those
questions require you to memorize the factual details- like how was the owner of NHB? In what your SBI was nationalized, What is the full form of Niti
Aayog? How many number of members are there in the monetary policy committee? and so on.
- So it is very naive to think that basic understanding is sufficient to pass the exam when other candidates are going to mugup facts, and get a better score
than you in the race.

● I do not make any false marketing claim that UPSC will not ask anything outside of it UPSC examiners are known for their Unpredictable temperament! But
then again cut off is never 200/200, So we never put excessive amount of efforts in a single area
- These schemes will be given in the pillar wise manner in my handout e.g. Agriculture in 4A, education schemes in pillar 6 and so on.
- Which schemes are important for the exam? Ans. It will become clear to you as we progress through the various pillars.

- Whereas to avail the overdraft you have to visit the bank branch or log into its portal. they doesn't give u cashback points for it.
1. First you have to register the company with Ministry of Corporate Affairs
2. then you've to mobilize minimum 500 cr capital. for this, If you want to issue shares in the share market then you have to get permission from SEBI
3. finally, If you want to open the bank you have to get license from RBI. If RBI is satisfied, it will give you licence as an non-scheduled (commercial) bank.
4. After that you run the bank, and once you satisfy the two conditions which we learnt in the class then RBI will give you the status of "scheduled
(Commercial) bank."
WHY IS REPO THE MAIN TOOL OF MONETARY POLICY, WHEN IT IS VERY INEFFECTIVE GIVING ANY RESULT?
- Because the other tools are even less impactful.
- And you cannot use CRR SLR too much or otherwise it will affect the bank run buffer protection. so repo is used.

- it's expanded into "share capital + bond capital + deposits liabilities + net profit = assets." for the simplifying the concept of BASEL norms / AT1 bonds.
Unnecessarily there is no need for so much hairsplittery / B.Com-giri over it ke where will you count X thing or Y thing. I could make a one hour YouTube
video on that but I don't really see the exam worthiness of that per suit.
- so plz have patience. Lecture is not a Wikipedia page where you can click the links to directly jump to the thing you want to learn. Every topic comes in a
particular sequence.
- If you are more eager to learn everything in advance as per your mood, then please see the recorded videos of the previous batch.

FINTECH/STARTUP MODEL
Example questions include: How does "X" type of Fintech startup actually work e.g. Paytm, P2P, account aggregators or HOW can they do "Y" thing if it's not legally
allowed?
- You can find the answer in their website's FAQ page or through some MBA research paper/case study. e.g. How does Policybazaar.com make money? etc,
how does P2P lenders recover money in default?
- But since their 'real life business model' is not important for the scope of UPSC exam, Beyond the basic idea which we've got in the class.

Educational Queries in Mrunal’s Economy Course at Unacademy Plus (Batch PCB1) Discount Code: ‘Mrunal.org”
- So I have not bothered to waste my time (and students' time) by teaching it in any more depth.
- e.g. "if IMPS is not free, then how come "X" type of App allow free transaction?" ans. Startup companies usually provide freebies/discount/cashback in the
beginning to attract more subscribers.
OPERATIONAL ASPECTS
- The question which you have asked falls outside the photoframe of how much is important for GS-Econom and/or
- your question deals with Operational aspects of RBI / FinMin/xyz org. Which is not important for the scope of upsc exam's general studies. Therefore I
have not bothered touching it.
- When I have to teach economy for general studies, I've a photoframe in my mind about 'upto how big picture should i create'? I confine that photoframe's
coverage up to what is easily available in NCERT, std text books, Economic Survey, theHindu/Indianexpress.
- Beyond that if we are going to search five different website for each and every topic = We can make a more comprehensive handout and a much bigger
photoframe= but then handout will become 1500 pages and It will yield very poor cost benefit for the scope of UPSC exam.
- If you have so much thirst for knowledge you can do the Google search yourself but I don't think it will be the best use of your time given that there are so
many other things to study for the actual exam.
- But, until your suggestions/demands are implemented, prepare the things as they are given handout, If you want to pass the exam.
- "Why is "X" matter looked after "Y" ministry but not "Z" ministry?",
- "how come banks are allowed to write-off loans for tax benefit isn't it unethical?"

- Further, If you are going to be stuck at everything with this much hyperthinking when are you going to finish the syllabus my dear student?
1. The thing you are asking= is sufficiently explained in the respective lectures if you listen to the audio carefully and or if you read the handout word by word
carefully.
2. You are engaging in the type of pedanticism/hairsplittery which is not even required for the scope of UPSC. Maybe if you are suffering from some type of
insecurity that what if this type of PhD level question is asked? do not worry it is not going to be asked, And even if it gets asked the cut of is never 200 out
of 200 marks. And there is no separate medal given for solving the toughest UPSC MCQ.
3. Your school and college teachers were so pathetic that you are unable to even grasp/comprehend even the simplest of the things. Then as a coaching
faculty, I'm sorry, I can't give you personal tuition and spoon feeding Beyond what is already given in the classroom.
- A) "it is not important to fully know what the given term/formula means or how it works. you only need to have a basic word association for MCQ
that there exists such a thing." AND OR
- B) "We will learn the given term in the separate pillar in the upcoming lectures"
- 1) Student is not listening properly to what teacher has said in the lecture/handout. Student may be treating this whole course as casual glancing
over some WhatsApp message.
Page 97 of 105 (Plz turnover the page, as FAQ has more than one sub-questions)
Educational Queries in Mrunal’s Economy Course at Unacademy Plus (Batch PCB1) Discount Code: ‘Mrunal.org”
- 2) Student may have mistaken this course has some type of College course. This is a competitive exam course. We are not here for intellectual
upliftment. We are here only to pass the cut off race. Student may satisfy his/her curiosity by doing the Google search but I do not think it is the
best use of time Given the poor cost-benefit of the matter For exam. Because by the time student is done with that intellectual pursuit, Yoyo Honey
Singh and Dhinchak Pooja would already have cleared the exam, and uploading their life@LBSNAA photos on instagram, without even investing
that much time / energy in it.
- Consequently, at present the content is enough simplified and exam oriented enough that any Graduate Level Candidate aspiring to be IAS/IPS, should be
able to understand it even IF he has average level of intelligence. And I make that claim without arrogance or condescending attitude.
- So if student is unable to understand it, then one or more of following reasons to explain it:
a. Student is not attending the video of lecture. He is simply reading powerpoint/handout by himself. And therefore having all type of doubts which
are already explained in the lecture audio video itself.
b. Student is not listening to what I am teaching or not reading the handout properly. Student is just superficially glancing over the content like it
is a WhatsApp message or tv-serial. But the good thing is Student can re-watch the recorded video multiple times. OR
c. Student does not have the patience for the full picture to evolve. e.g. I am teaching about the money supply and monetary policy for India and his
brain is wandering into how it will affect the currency exchange rate. we'll learn that pillar 3. presently we are in pillar 1 so have the patience till
we reach pillar3. OR
d. Student is not interested in listening to what I am teaching. He is interested in overthinking/PHD-ing/hairsplittery outside the "photo frame".
Prime example is given in Virat Kohli wedding photo in Pillar1A2 lecture slide #64-65. https://unacademy.com/class/economy-pillar1a2-
monetary-policy2-quantitative-tools-crr-slr-repo/SE011IEP Such approach is definitely not helpful for passing the competitive exam. I cannot help
such students in that case. They have to help themselves. OR
e. Some students come from such school and colleges where their teachers failed to teach them even the most basic level of things. So they lack the
power to comprehend the most basic level of things like how event "A" will lead to "B". And then those 15 years of weakness in school-collage= a
coaching faculty can't rectify in 4 months of coaching. The sad reality of life = this is a competitive exam coaching class. IF 5000 other students
have understood it without complaint, then the coaching faculty will move to the next topic. He cannot sit and give personal tuition to every weak

student who is unable to understand the most basic thing. There is a limitation on how much spoon feeding can be done. I don't blame the student.
I blame his school-college teachers for that.
- So, already you're getting sufficient practice for economy MCQs. Better use your time for preparing other subjects, instead of looking for more practice
MCQs on Economy.
POOR SCORE IN ECONOMY WEEKLY ECONOMY QUIZ, WHAT TO DO, FEELING DEMOTIVATED?
● It also take some time to get used to the way MCQs are formed in UPSC. It basically involves changing of certain keywords and going to elimination method.
Once you get a hang of it it becomes very fast to tick or skip the answers.
○ a) Not revising properly → Then solution is obvious =you have to revise more
○ d) Silly mistakes like Incorrect statement is asked but they are taking the correct statement
● I am sure you will do well. Just focus on the lecture, revise the handouts and give the weekly Tests in regular fashion and rectify mistakes.
● When the first four pillars are over you will automatically see the big picture how everything fits together in the whole syllabus.

● This is not a mathematics quiz where I can change the sum’s figures is every time. Iran’s currency is toman. how many ways can we spin this fact for

● I wish I was a machine,so I could work 24 by 7 without eating, sleeping, rest or any personal life. But until that happens we have to continue with the
present system.
PLEASE INCREASE THE NUMBER OF QUESTIONS ASKED IN THE WEEKLY QUIZ /LIVE CLASS/IN HANDOUT
If I increase the quantity of MCQ then their quality cannot be maintained. If a handout has 25 pages, and i try to create 100 MCQs from it, Then will end up being a
pedestrian quality clerk-exam level MCQs.
I AM UNABLE TO GET CORRECT ANSWER EVEN AFTER DOING 50:50 ELIMINATION STRATEGY
50-50 strategy requires that you should be familiar with many of the background factoids so that you can eliminate the wrong answers properly and even within
the remaining 2 options, you can pick up a more suitable optional because of your contextual knowledge of Many related subjects/theories. Therefore 50:50 it will

your primary objective. My Further thoughts on “WHEN to start answer writing” are given here: https://youtu.be/htcu1I2PAtk
- In our present economy course, we have started Answer writing from 21st June Sunday lecture please see it. Because everyone in this batch is not at the
same level of preparation. some of you may be fresher, some of you may be appearing for the second attempt in prelims, so i can't 'wait' for my side for
everyone to have 'finished' the syllabus before i teach answer writing here. But that does not mean it is compulsory that you have to immediately start it.
- for getting pageviews/subscribers/buyers for test series = the e-learning website owners do daily tamashaa of Daily mains answer writing challenges but
If you are appearing in the examination for the first time then your priority should be to finish the subject's reading/syllabus first.

- Unacademy also running some courses that provide you mock questions. go through their landing page:
