This is NOT just another book on how to crack UPSC. • This will not teach you how to crack Prelims, Mains or the Interview (although you can score significantly higher with the concepts given inside). • Nor does this book teach you shortcuts or hacks to ace the exam. No. • This book is a roadmap. It will take you beyond the syllabus and into the mind of a UPSC Topper. It is a window into how a UPSC Topper thinks, behaves and performs consistently at a high level. This book is an attempt at what every other UPSC book has tried to do but failed - to inspire, motivate and most of all, instil hope. It is a deep dive into the science behind high performance studying and consistently delivering superior results. One cannot clear UPSC exam by merely studying for it - one has to live it. The answer to what separates the cream of the crop from the lakhs of other aspirants lies within these pages. • The secret code will not just help you clear the exam but grow into an IAS officer along the way. Once you do that, clearing the exam will be easy. To become an officer, you have to first live like one. And this book will show you how.
