Why Do you Need a Mentor?
- Every person needs a mentor at some point in their life, and the UPSC is a life span unto itself.
- If his coach or mentor was not there to mentor him, not even the God of Cricket (Sachin Tendulkar) would be able to achieve the championship.
- In a similar manner, you require a mentor who can keep you on the right path and who will be there for you if you become stuck in the middle.
Importance of a Mentor in IAS Preparations
- Creating a study plan to adequately cover the extensive curriculum.
- liberate you from the network of research materials.
- Allocate enough time for each topic to be covered in depth.
- Advice on how to pick the best sources, including books, periodicals, newspapers, publications from the government, etc.
- How to select your optional course to improve your grade.
- How to cope with exam stress, which every year breaks the spirit of many hopefuls, is last but most crucial.
