Mapboard for Civil Services: Prelims 2015 through Mapboard



Hullo there!

Launching a new series of maps. Here, we analyze previous year UPSC civil services Prelims question papers through maps. Hope you will find it useful.


How this series is going to unfold?

- Identifying map-based questions.
- Identifying sub-questions
- Drawing a map of each sub-question, if necessary
-Posting it under 'Prelims through Mapboard'


Why?
Because questions asked in UPSC civil services Prelims are interesting! So, mapping them would be fun.
And also:
Because we have observed that map-based questions are very important for Prelims. In Prelims 2015 at least 14 geography questions were asked. And all of them can be represented in maps. So, why not?
And if you go through some four sets of previous year question papers, you might see that the questions aren't that unpredictable as a beginner would fear. So, we hope to identify the predictability.
Also, these are going to be really really informative. Something you might not find anywhere else. Something that might make you desirous of drawing more maps yourself.

It would be our pleasure to hear what do you think of it all.
And if you have made some maps, and think that it has a potential to be helpful for other learners,
we would be very obliged, if you send them to us  : scholasticappster@gmail.com
