• Anyways, they have to paint rosy good picture, because some of them have families to feed and some of them just want to mint truckload of cash beyond what is necessary to maintain an upper-middleclass life style. Same goes geography, sociology, political science, anthropology etc. • Yes, the length of syllabus, synergy with GS, availability of books and guidance, graduation background.all those factors should be considered before picking up a subject but don’t pick up a subject only based on somebody’s sales pitch. • Public Administration used to be the perfect wife so UPSC decided to play Lalita Pawar in CSE 2012- in terms of unpredictable questions, merciless evaluation and scaling. Many sincere candidates ended up with ridiculously low two-digit scores.

• But whether you should keep Public Administration or leave her, that decision should not be made on the statistical inference from the two-digit scores in CSE-2012 alone, because there is no guarantee that UPSC won’t play Lalita Pawar again when you get a new bride (sociology, political science etc.) in 2013. • Besides, despite what happened in CSE-2012, there are toppers in the final list, with Public Administration optional and same will happen in CSE-2013 as well. Brcapro software. • My point being: One should be careful about optionals just like in marriage and divorce. Decisions should not be made in haste during the heat of anger or passion or at the insistence of a third party. • X subject is good because 50 people were selected from there, and Y subject is bad because only 20 people were selected: please don’t use that criteria for subject selection.

All you need and all you can occupy is just one seat in the final merit list. UPSC is not about statistics of masses, it’s about an individual’s determination, perseverance, hard work and of course, good luck. • UPSC’s treatment to Public Administration could be seen as an attempt to reduce the monopoly held by Public Administration, geography etc. In the final merit list and to promote “inclusive growth and equal opportunity” to candidates from unpopular technical subjects. (btw, @UPSC Chairman: where were you sleeping all these years when technical subjects were given step motherly treatment and coaching classes flourished like an algal bloom? How about retrospective justice, compensation or at least an apology to those retired players from odd-technical subjects who suffered at the hands of UPSC’s scaling in the previous years!) • Anyways, to survive in the present environment of UPSC, one should expand his reading; maintain, update and revise his notes on regular basis; and practice answer writing. So far as Public Administration goes, IGNOU still has its uses, so here I’ve compiled its BA, MA (direct downloads for full sets, no registration needed) + notes of three toppers + last 34 years papers of Public Administration (1979-2012).

Essential (Free) softwares and instructions • Majority of these PDF files provides direct copying of text. => That means you can use Mrunal’s autonotemaker to quickly make notes and mindmaps out of it, just use mouse cursor to highlight a particular line /phrase and my software will copy its text in a separate file. For more instructions • Foxit PDF reader.

(necessary prerequisite for using Mrunal’s autonotemaker) • 7-zip (for unzipping the files). Reason for using 7zip, because it provides extreme level of compression. MA Public Policy set is almost 70MB but 7zip compressed it down to just 9MB.
