History Notes For UPSC / IAS
Why one should read History Seriously
- The subject is plain, involves no typical theories, doctrines, principles and ideas and on the balance is marked by the absence of technicalities.
- Current issues are absent what one finds in almost all popular optional subjects, so preparation does not require updating.
- Everything is almost fixed in history. In Preliminary Examination there are about 15 to 18 questions constituting 30 to 36 marks (GS Paper-I (Prelim)
- In GS-I (Paper-II Main) History is expected to constitute over 50% marks (125+ marks)
