In the Engineering Services Examination preliminary exams, the Union Public Service Commission won't follow any weight-based pattern. For an electrical aspirant, I can suggest a few points. , Among all subjects, machines, networks, power systems, and control systems combined will definitely ensure you 100 to 150 marks (whatever the pattern may be). The new subjects like computer organisation, material Science, and math will be there in every teacher's mind because of their new syllabus. The subjects that were less focused on the previous year will not be the same this year; we can expect less emphasis on communication, microcontrollers, and microprocessors, as they will be less focused on Mains as well. My advice is to cover all subjects for prelims, and we can have the option to leave a few during main practice.

UPSC announces multiple vacancies for the ESE. The exam is highly prestigious and it witnesses Lacs of students apply every year. ESE General Studies syllabus:
National and international current issues, Basics of energy, Conservation of the environment, environmental pollution, and climate change, General Principles of Design and Drawing, Production and construction, Project Management, Logical reasoning and analytical ability, Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), Importance of Safety, Maintenance. Books for General Studies:
1- General Principles of World Geography by Charles Farro
2- Anatomy & Physiology by Evelyn Pearce
3- An Introduction to the Constitution of India: D Basu

Preparation tips:
1- Know the syllabus.
2- Try to solve the Previous year's questions.
3- Attempt more Mock tests and analyze yourself.
4- Make a short note for Revision.
5- Eat healthily, and sleep properly. I hope this will help you.

1. Review all the main topics as much as you can before the examination.
2. Solve the ESE full-length mock test and the previous year's question paper.
3. Effective time management is crucial in these last months of preparation. Time yourself section-wise for both Paper 1 and Paper 2.
4. Allocate time for every section and try to complete each section in that time frame only. Don't overburden yourself. Recreational breaks are a necessity to refresh your mind, so try to take some breaks in between study times.
5. Take regular sleep and proper care of your diet because, without rest and a healthy diet, your brain won't be able to focus correctly.
6. Avoid guessing, If you are uncertain about a question, then it's better to leave it and solve the ones in which you are confident.
7. Short-Cut Techniques: Try to solve numerical problems using short techniques rather than traditional methods to save time in exams. Beware of marks per question, negative marking, and exam duration while attempting the ESE Exam. I hope this will help you.
