How to use Prelim Bits
Each Prelim Bit follows the same format, so you always know where to look:
- Syllabus tag – the GS paper and topic (for example GS II – Polity | Social Justice), so you can file the note in the right place.
- Why in news? – the event, in two or three lines.
- Background – what you need to know to understand it.
- Key points – the facts, definitions, Articles, committees and data that can be asked in the Prelims.
- Prelims pointers – quick facts to remember, and traps to avoid.
A simple daily routine
Read the day’s Prelim Bits, then take the daily quiz to check what stuck. At the end of the month, revise the whole month from the archive instead of rereading newspapers. Keep a short notebook for the facts you got wrong.
