Dear Friends,

Yes!! The wait is finally over! The wait for the most reliable, effective and affordable programme for UPSC  2020 preparation – ILP 2020.

Let us begin by thanking all of you who have made ILP a grand success beginning from the year 2016. The years 2018 and 2019 is a monument year for IASbaba for two reasons.

One, way back in 2015 we had said that ILP would stand out as the most comprehensive tool for UPSC preparation and yes now most of you would have realised the same in 2018.

Two, when the storm brews and brews strong, its IASbaba who has been standing tall!

200+ selections in the span of just three years (2016, 2017, 2018) including Ranks 4, 5, 6 and 9 in TOP 10. 100+ selections in ILP alone. This year as well, we have many Ranks from ILP.

You can check this year’s result here- Click Here

And our offline classroom program which has delivered and built as the most trusted in the whole of the South! People working in regular organisations and attending our weekends batches have cleared the exam!

That’s why IASbaba is the smartest tool around!!

Hundreds of time we have told students not to depend on mere last minute tools, some compilations or series (which UPSC tracks) and blindly trust them and finally end up in the ditch. Aspirants fail to realise that it is not the last minute miracle but consistent effort throughout the journey. It is the process that is important. It is the process that is sustainable. And yes ILP is that!!

And this is not a mere coincidence, we have done it year on year from the day of our genesis. Year on Year ILP has proven to be the indestructible tool!!


Hitting the bull’s eye year after year:

In the last three years, ILP has been bang on target with a hit ratio of more than 65%, a figure remarkably high keeping in mind the unpredictable nature of UPSC. With a knack of getting it right ILP has become a reliable name:


Hear from the Topper’s - the instrumental role that ILP played in their Success. 




  See what our current followers have to say about ILP Programme:

So many good things are going to end this year! The series of superheroes films from the Marvel universe reached its finale with Avengers Endgame. The Game of Thrones saga is going to complete its trip in another two episodes. The much loved Star Wars series is also going to end its 42 years long journey this year. Well, that’s the law of nature. Everything good comes to an end but leaves an impression that stays forever. What has been so striking about these cinematic marvels is that with each passing year, they set the benchmark higher, generated more and more anticipation, enlarge their fan base, got loved by millions of audiences. That is what is excellence- the desire to do better and better without any sense of complacency.

 

Something similar is happening to us as well. When the Integrated Learning Programme (ILP) was first launched in 2015, we were overwhelmed by the faith and support bestowed upon by our followers. That gave us the push to do even better. With each passing year, we have improved ILP, introduced unparalleled features and in return our support base has grown manifold. Each year, we generate a lot of anticipation, receive thousands of mails and get appreciation from hundreds of candidates. Like all good things, ILP has been able to leave its unparalleled mark in the ecosystem of UPSC preparation. ILP as a  tool of civil services preparation is not only unique but also necessary to have. Let us see how.

 

We are all living in a competitive world. While there are many reasons for the stiff competition that exists everywhere, we can’t afford to overthink it. We need a committed vision, a dedicated mindset and sincere efforts to succeed in different walks of life. One such walk of life for the young generation of India is the coveted civil services. With the opportunities, powers and perks on offer, the civil services attract a substantial number of aspirants. In fact for a measly 700-800 seats, lakhs of aspirants appear in the civil services examination. It translates into a success rate of merely 0.15-0.16%! No other prominent examination has such a low success percentage. Despite such low rates of success, the number of aspirants is actually increasing. There are numerous examples of well settled, highly paid individuals leaving their jobs and preparing for civil services. It only shows the ever-increasing popularity of civil services and the associated rise in competition.

 

What is the best way to face this competition? The answer, of course, is- hard work! But is that enough? Hard work is necessary but never a sufficient factor for success in civil services. What one needs is SMART work. What does smart work mean? Try to understand this. Smartness is a paradigm that is changing everything around us. Smart solutions are changing the way we live. Take for example the spectrum of mobile applications that we use. These smart apps help us to order food, book a cab, request home cleaning, hire consultants, read books online, listen to music or watch films anywhere anytime and so on! These changes have been so rapid that the present generation of kids don’t even realise the way in which even the smallest of our needs took so much time and efforts to be met. The key idea here is that with “smartness” being the buzzword, the preparation for civil services can’t be left untouched. Unfortunately, the domain of civil services preparation could hardly integrate the smartness paradigm within its fold. The age-old traditional ways and means of preparation have been failing the candidates. Novelty and innovation were missing from this field.

 

IASbaba takes pride in the fact that we revolutionised the paradigm of civil services preparation by introducing the Online Integrated Learning Programme (ILP)- our flagship online initiative that is smart, accessible, affordable and highly effective. In the three years of ILP, we have become an integral part of numerous success stories. ILP was launched with a vision to enable a candidate sitting in the remotest corner of the country to have a shot at Rank 1 in the civil services examination. With ILP, an internet connection, an electronic data device and the determination to work hard are what one needs to taste success in UPSC. We are delighted that we have been able to positively transform the ecosystem of civil services preparation with ILP.

But what makes ILP so special? How is it different from other initiatives? How does it increase your chances in civil services examination? Well, the answer is simple! ILP acts as your longtime partner in preparation, ever ready and capable to help you at each stage of your preparation- day by day, hour by hour. It reduces your efforts, micromanages your time in the most productive way and allocates your attention in a well-defined priority. It makes your preparation planned, seamless and enjoyable!
