FAQs related to UPSC General Studies

General Studies is the core part of the UPSC Prelims and Mains syllabus. It covers subjects like History, Geography, Polity, Economy, Environment, Science & Technology, Ethics, and Current Affairs.

In Prelims: 1 GS Paper (GS Paper I) + 1 CSAT Paper (qualifying).

In Mains: 4 GS Papers (GS-I, GS-II, GS-III, and GS-IV), each carrying 250 marks.

Extremely important. Current Affairs influence almost every GS Paper — Prelims, Mains, and even in the Interview stage.

No. Although there is overlap, Prelims GS focuses more on facts, concepts, and current affairs, while Mains GS demands detailed analytical and opinion-based answers.
