 Good evening. I am Dr. Vinodini. I have secured all India rank 64 in the current UPSA examination. This is my fifth attempt and my optional is anthropology. In my previous attempt, that is my fourth attempt, I got all India rank 360 and I was allotted with Indian Railway Management Service. So, regarding preparation, after my medical college completion, I started with the prelims and main scores with Shankar IS Academy and regarding prelims, my preparation was with NCRTs and two newspapers of Hindu and Indian Express. This was my regular preparation and I also put test series from Shankar IS. So, this was my preparation and secondly, regarding the main preparation, I did regular test series in Shankar and I also continued with the same strategy of newspapers and magazines. So, this was very helpful for me in my main preparation and also reading books for polity like Lakshmikanth and Bipin Chandra for modern India. These were all very helpful for me and finally, for the interview stage also, I did my mocks from Shankar IS Academy. It was very helpful and they pointed out my mistakes very well and I was able to correct it with full focus. For my anthropology optional, I did a self-preparation especially with the regular books like Ember and Ember, Nadim, Hassane, Sir's book and these were my regular sources and I did a quick revision before my exam and this was very helpful in my answer writing. For all the aspirants who are appearing in the future, all the best and have a bright future. Thank you.
