Watch and listen
You remember what you see and hear.
Every topic is a short video with someone explaining it. You see the map while you hear what it means. That stays with you far longer than reading the same thing off a page.

How it works
01
Watch the briefings
Eight to ten focused minutes per track, through the day. The Hindu, the op-ed page, world news, PIB.
02
Answer while it is fresh
Every briefing ends in MCQs written from that briefing. No separate revision step.
03
Sit the 9 PM paper
30 questions, 30 minutes, the same paper across India. You get a room of 20 five minutes before the bell.
Every week
Finish in the top 10 this week. Wear it next week.
The all-India leaderboard runs Monday to Sunday, across all seven of that week’s 9 PM papers. The ten names at the top when it resets get a prelims.org polo in the post.

Backed by research
A better, more scientific way to prepare for prelims.
Not more hours and not a longer syllabus. Three things the research on how people learn has been clear about for decades, built into the way you study here every day.
Timed revision
We bring topics back before you forget them.
You never have to plan revision. A question you got wrong comes back a few days later, then after a week, then after a month. By exam day you have seen it enough times to keep it.
Your own plan
You study what you are weak at.
We keep track of how you do on every topic. The ones you have cracked show up less. The ones you keep missing show up more. Your plan changes every day, and it is nobody else’s.
Tracks
Four briefings a day. None of them longer than a tea break.

The 9 PM paper
One paper. One bell. Three ranks, in that order.
Seats are assigned at 20:55 and the bell is at 21:00 sharp. No pausing, no restarting, no attempting it at midnight. The pressure is the point — it is the only honest rehearsal for the real thing.

Practice
The whole static syllabus, level by level.
Current affairs is the new half. This is the half that has always been here — graded question sets across every prelims subject.
