Every recruitment cycle draws lakhs of graduates competing for a limited set of administrative posts — Deputy Collector, DSP, BDO, Block Development Officer, Sub-Divisional Magistrate, and dozens of other Group A and Group B services in Uttar Pradesh. The 2025 notification (Advt No. A-1/E-1/2025) had 200 vacancies and over 6.26 lakh applicants. Those are numbers that demand serious, focused preparation. This Abhyaas (practice) book from Youth Competition Times is designed specifically for the UPPSC PCS Prelims — the first and most competitive filter in the selection process. At 481 pages, it is a targeted practice resource, not a theory textbook. The name says it clearly: Abhyaas means practice, and that is the gap this book fills — giving candidates a structured way to test their preparation before sitting the actual exam. The UPPSC Prelims has two papers, both conducted offline on the same day. Paper I (General Studies I) has 150 MCQs worth 200 marks in 120 minutes — and these marks are what count for Mains shortlisting. Paper II (CSAT) has 200 marks but is purely qualifying in nature, requiring a minimum of 33% (66 marks) to clear; CSAT marks do not affect the merit list. There is 1/3 negative marking on both papers. Paper I covers: Current Events of National and International Importance (with special focus on Uttar Pradesh), History of India and the Indian National Movement (social, economic, and political dimensions), Indian and World Geography (physical, social, economic geography of India and the world), Indian Governance and Polity (Constitution, political system, Panchayati Raj, public policy, rights), Social and Economic Development (sustainable development, poverty, demographics, social sector initiatives), Environmental Ecology, Climate Change and Biodiversity, and General Science. The UPPSC GS Paper I is notably UP-centric — questions on UP history, UP geography, UP economy, UP government schemes, and UP current affairs appear consistently across years and are areas that generic UPSC-focused books often underserve. Paper II (CSAT) covers: Comprehension, Interpersonal Skills and Communication, Logical Reasoning and Analytical Ability, General Mental Ability, Basic Numeracy (Class 10 level Maths — numbers, percentages, ratio, time-speed-distance), Data Interpretation, and General Hindi and General English comprehension. A practice book at this stage is the right tool. By the time a serious UPPSC aspirant picks up this book, they have covered theory across GK subjects. What they need now is timed practice, exposure to the UPPSC question framing style (which is noticeably different from UPSC — more direct, more UP-specific, more static GK-heavy in some years), and honest feedback on their accuracy rate before the actual exam. Who is this for? Graduate-level candidates preparing for UPPSC PCS Prelims, whether first-time aspirants or repeat attempts. Candidates also targeting UPPSC RO/ARO, UPPSC APO, or UP Police SI exams, since the GS Prelims syllabus overlaps significantly with all these exams. Anyone who has done their GK subject reading and needs practice sets to shift from knowledge to exam-ready performance. Youth Competition Times is based in Prayagraj — the same city where UPPSC is headquartered and where the city's entire competitive exam ecosystem is tuned to UPPSC preparation. This proximity matters: YCT's editorial team has direct access to UP-specific question patterns, previous year analysis, and coaching institute feedback from the heart of UP PSC preparation culture. Their UPPSC series is widely used across coaching institutes in Prayagraj, Lucknow, Kanpur, and Varanasi. The book is in Hindi Medium — which reflects how the majority of UPPSC aspirants prepare and take the exam, since the exam itself is conducted bilingually but most UP-based students are strongest in Hindi.

Start with a timed full practice paper, assess your score, identify your weakest GS segments, and use that analysis to guide your remaining revision before the Prelims. --- - **URL:** https://www.allcompetitionclasses.co.in/books/youth-competition-times-uppsc-pre-abhyaas-book-2025-86jpxf6ouk [Download / View Book](https://www.allcompetitionclasses.co.in/books/youth-competition-times-uppsc-pre-abhyaas-book-2025-86jpxf6ouk) [Browse All Books](https://www.allcompetitionclasses.co.in/books)
