Frequently Asked Questions

ELEVATE: One-to-One Personalized Mentorship Program by Prepp IAS is the best Mentorship Program for UPSC CSE aspirants. With Interview Appeared Mentors at the core, this UPSC Mentorship Program provides comprehensive guidance for all stages of UPSC Examination: Prelims, Mains and Personality Test. It adopts an outcome-oriented approach, supporting students in their quest for excellence.

ELEVATE: One-to-One Personalized Mentorship Program by Prepp IAS is priced at ₹59,999 plus GST, making it the ideal selection for UPSC Examination aspirants.

In this program, we have provided a set of highly useful resources over the portal. Most of your content demand will be addressed from there itself.
However, we know that requirements may vary across students and being pioneers of customized UPSC preparation, we strive to provide customized content too.
So, if a student has a content requirement that is not available over the portal or otherwise, the student can raise a request for the same with the Mentor. The Mentor will forward the requirement to our Content Team and it will be shared with you within a specified timeframe. However, this unique feature has its limitations so the students have to be patient with their demands and should not misuse this support.

ELEVATE is a GS-only mentorship program. However, the mentors will definitely provide you with specific slots for your optional preparation. However, we also provide Optional Subject Mentorship as an add-on and students can take it as an add-on for selective subjects.

If you are a part of our MGMMP variable of ELEVATE, your answers will be evaluated by Interview-Appeared-Evaluators. They will be different from your Mentors. This is done because:
  1. Mentors already know the student, however, evaluation should always be anonymous to ensure objectivity.
  2. Thus, after evaluation, you should share your copies with the mentor in the session itself.
  3. Here, the mentor will analyze your evaluated answers, and based on your skills and assessment, possible areas of improvement will be provided to you. This is very helpful as the suggestions become customized to your skill set and can be implemented with ease.
  4. If you have opted for ELEVATE without the MGMMP variable, then also you can attempt 13 Foundational Tests which will be evaluated by Interview-Appeared-Evaluators and the evaluated copies will be analyzed by the Mentor over the sessions. Based on the requirement, you can upgrade to MGMMP variable for advanced Sectional and Full Length Tests.
  5. Also, you can share evaluated copies from other institutes and get your copies analyzed by your mentors by following the same procedure as above. Thus, existing resources can be utilized, making the program an assimilator of all UPSC components.
  6. If the mentor has suggested a task of daily or weekly answer writing to you, you can select your best answers and get it analyzed over the session itself.

Mentorship sessions can be scheduled every 10-12 days based on your requirements. These sessions will be detailed, allowing for substantial targets for you to complete. Additionally, if you face any issues between sessions, you can WhatsApp your mentor during working hours, and the mentor will address it based on the criticality. However, this is just an added support and if the concern cannot be resolved over chat, it will be taken up in the upcoming session. This ensures smooth learning with tracking and follow-up.

It is unrealistic to expect from one person that he/she will cater to all the subject requirements. However, the Mentor will definitely suggest the best sources for such requirements and with our experience, this concern is easily addressed. Additionally, you can ask your doubts in the Telegram group and they will be addressed by Subject Matter Experts during working hours.

To maintain inclusivity and comprehensiveness, ELEVATE also offers Academic Doubt Resolution through a dedicated Telegram Channel. Here, students can post specific academic questions, which our team of Subject Matter Experts will address within the group itself within 24-48 working hours.
