Here are my marksheets for the Prelims and Mains of Civil Services Exam 2017. Along with these, I’ve attached my marksheet for CSE 2015 (I’ve skipped CSE 2016.)
A cursory glance at scores from both these attempts should tell you that, with crisp and clear answers, you can drastically improve your Mains scores across the papers. You can read more about how I overcame my failures here.
So my only plea to you is: if your recent Mains scores have been terrible, do not become despondent. I will soon write detailed blog posts on Mains answer writing. Hope they help you in improving your answer content and presentation.

Hi Anudeep. I’m giving UPSC 2018. Looking forward towards your Mains Answer writing article.
Congrats for your success 🙂
first try to learn to give respect
That was with respect dude, though I am not the one who wrote that post. It seems that you don’t respect others and have very little understanding of what respect actually means. So, be respectful towards everyone, whether or not they have cleared this exam.
Anyways, hats off to you Anudeep for such an outstanding achiever.
Where he lacked in giving respect. Were your ancestors feuds ? we are living in the era of globalisation dude. Colonialism has ended. Now there is no relation like that of Master and slave.Corporates have learnt this and even CEO is called by his name. So you better show respect to the source comment

I need help
Ha peddha poo ani
Thank you very much sir _/\_
congrats sir
You are the best topper.
How are you sir???
Good didi
Sir,I have opted for Public administration as my optional, But it put me in a dilemma when I saw that you changed your optional from PA to anthropology
The major question that strikes my mind is whether Public Administration is not a scoring subject.
Sir what was your reason of switching the subject?
Same questions
I feel that it depends on your area of interest. If you do feel Public Administration interests you then go for it.
thank you so much sir

Hello Anudeep Annaya,
Please write how to prepare for Working Aspirant. As you too prepared while working. It will be more effective and useful if you do so.
Thank you.
Thank you so much sir… And congrats on your success
Hi Anudeep, in your sample essay, there is a full para mentioning what all is there in your essay. But in your essay notes, I see you have crossed such things and written that its not needed. So can you please clear this confusion?
In the initial essays I used to write that para. But later realized that it unnecessarily reveals everything we have to say in the essay, and dulls the interest of the reader.
So I stopped writing that thesis para. In the final exam too didn’t write it.
Hello Anudeep Sir,
Firat of all my heartiest congratulations for your extraordinary success.
Sir, my query is regarding Bipin Chandra book, as you have also stated it for selective reading and even I too find it little ambiguous as there’re lots of facts in one page only.
So, I want to know what are the selections to study and which part to avoid. How specific kind of fact to be grasp?
you are the best topper sir to correct guide of yours essay notes for my son Dr abhishek tnks
Hi Anudeep Sir,
As you mentioned in several videos that you struggled with your writing speed. Same is true with me. I have scored fairly well 154 in essay but can’t score higher in the GS papers. My slow speed was one of the reason. Plz guide me through your experience. I will be deeply obliged.
I’m sorry I do not have any writing hack to quickly improve the speed. Improving writing speed is just like improving your running speed. Comes only through practice.
I used to have a timer and consistently write some random article from newspapers. Based on the number of words written in the set time, I would consciously work to improve the speed day after day, in a way that my writing speed is enough to finish a 15 marker in 10 min approx.
You can sacrifice the beauty of your handwriting for speed.
Sir,
There is any problem by sacrificing the beauty of handwriting in mains exm ???? May be mark will reduce
Congratulations sir. I am mareppa mudhol i am very proud of you sir please how to prepare ias please sir suggestions you to me because my goal also ias topper please say to me sir.

Hello sir! Congratulations on your success! Please post about your anthropology strategy too. Also, I want to tell you that there is a profile on Twitter with handle @AnudeepDshetty which is impersonating to be you. Kindly look into the matter. I think the profile is by this person (https://m.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=1920850561578250&id=100009599743431 )
I’ve reported the account and Twitter removed the account. Thanks for informing!
Hi Anudeep,
Congratulation on the coup. Could you please put up a post detailing your strategy for Anthro. and how you went about with regard to the optional paper? Thanks.
Done already. Please check ‘Optional’ tab on this site.
