Preparation strategy for UPSC Engineering Services Examination

IES is among the most prestigious and coveted career options that are available for engineers
encompassing private, public and government sectors. Just like the Civil Services, the
candidates recruited for the IES are highly honored by the government and the society.
Since there are many opportunities for engineers in the public sector like Indian Railways,
Central Engineering, Military Engineering, Telecommunications, Central Water Services and
many other departments, the IES is a highly desired job where candidates get to play an
important role in the development of the country.

The keys to success in the IES or any other exam will always be hard work, relentless efforts and
perseverance. However, a smart approach involving systematic planning is also crucial to
achieve targets. A thorough knowledge of the subject including clarity of basic concepts along
with awareness about current affairs, general knowledge add to the advantages of hard work. A
smart and mature persona is also a prerequisite for successfully cracking this exam.
You can use these tips to get a fair idea of these exams and develop your own personal strategy:
You must understand and acquaint yourself with the latest pattern and syllabus of the
examination. The previous year's question papers can be a great help. You can screen them
thoroughly to identify the repeat topics and questions and prepare accordingly.
Use reference books to understand concepts but prefer to understand one topic from one good
book to avoid confusion and waste of time. However, you can use different books for different
topics.
Time management is a very crucial factor during preparation and even writing this exam. One
must chalk out a proper strategy and time table. Each subject from the technical section must be
devoted at least 3 hours daily to get best results. English and General Studies should also be
given 1 hour each so that you can get a cutting edge in exam.
To avoid boredom and maintain enthusiasm distribute the subjects well in your time table for
studying. You can alternate between General Ability and Technical sections to make studying
enjoyable.
You must segregate short-term and long term study goals, and work accordingly to succeed.
Short notes are very helpful especially in technical subjects. Make short notes of important topics
and also a list of formulae and revise them daily.
Practice of questions helps to assess your understanding and level of concepts. Practice as
many as possible from books and previous question papers.
Since time is a crucial factor while attempting the exam candidates can time themselves while
practicing questions. Ensure to complete the tasks within the stipulated time.
Candidates can also practice questions with the help of OMR sheets so that they get
acclimatized to using them during the exam.
For English, you can learn 20 new words daily from previous years question papers or other
sources.
You can also solve 10 to 15 questions of English daily, based on rearranging sentences and
finding errors.
Reading the newspaper, watching the news, surfing the net will help to prepare for the general
ability exam. Knowledge of Current Affairs of 45 days prior to the exam will help to sail through
this exam.
Daily practice of at least of 5 questions from the previous year papers of conventional exam will
enhance writing skills and presentation.
Practice of mock tests that include all sections of the exam within a limited time frame will help
you to sail through and succeed in these exams.
Time plays a very crucial role during all exams including the ESE. So, it is a must that you
optimally utilize the allotted time.
There are 120 questions in Objective Paper I, evenly based on General Studies and English.
Since Comprehension and questions based on rearrangement of sentences are time consuming,
candidates can solve those after completing the rest of the exam.
Ensure that you read the Comprehension thoroughly before attempting the questions. This will
give you a better idea for answering correctly.
Attempt the questions you find easy before moving on to the difficult ones.
echnical theory questions are best attempted before the numerical since you may take long to
attempt numerical which also carry negative marking, so a well attempted theory gives you
stronger chance of scoring well and covering up for negative marks.
Remember to write the formula in the numerical problems, along with S.I units of quantities
involved and also specify the answer.
There are two conventional papers on the third day. Attempt the easy questions first after reading
the paper thoroughly and keep the difficult ones for the end.
Make sure the presentation of your answer sheet is neat, systematic and well organized with
properly labeled diagrams if required. An orderly answer sheet with exact expression within
proper word limit is credited for especially in the conventional papers.

Consistency, Perseverance and self motivation are the key ingredients of success.
Enhance your memory power and efficiency by indulging in recreational activities, to keep your
mind healthy and rejuvenated.
Keep the documents related to examination such as hall ticket, acknowledgment of application,
application number and other details safely to avoid any hassles.
The last day before the exam must be spent in relaxing and revising only important topics and
notes. You must also sleep for at least 6 hours to wake up fresh and rejuvenated for the exam.
Remember to carry sharpened pencils, pens, eraser and your hall ticket on the day of the exam.
Make sure that you reach the exam centre well before time and avoid studying during traveling.
 PREPARATION STRATEGY
Preparation for the ESE requires both, clarity of concepts as well as problem solving skills, since
the written exam has objective and subjective sections. A few key points will have you sailing
through.

Begin with awareness of exam pattern, percentage of technical questions & non-technical ones,
weightage of each section to streamline your studying strategy. Use Previous year question
papers as guide to make smart decisions regarding your study plan.
Use Reference books for understanding theory, concepts, derivations and equations etc. and
make your basics strong.
You can practice previous year question papers to analyze your weak areas. Identify the weak
topics and revise them thoroughly. Time yourself as you solve the papers to get an idea of your
speed so that you can focus on that too.
The General Ability section carries 200 marks and is important even for the Personal interview.
Keep your General Knowledge updated for this section through news papers, news channels or
surfing websites.
Writing the Exam
Smart writing skills, good presentation, proper explanations, theoretical reasoning, derivations,
related equations and diagrams will help you cover the subjective section.

Short Cut Techniques: Solve numerical using short techniques rather than traditional methods to
save time.
Beware of marks per question, negative marking and exam duration while attempting the paper.
Personal Interview Your all round personality is the focal point of personal interviews. A Positive
attitude, Smart body language, Proper communication and Knowledge about current affairs
reflect a great Persona. Along with this Sound technical knowledge can create a great
impression in personal interviews. You must prepare to answer queries about your strong and
weak traits.
