please tell me how to get started to be an ies from the begining . I am a 1st year engg student.

If you wish to clear the IES exam you need to be well focused and follow a meticulous approach. Begin with making a list of areas to be covered. Cover each and every topic. Keep sufficient time for revision. Also download the previous year papers to know the type of questions asked.

you should prefer only standard books and also have knowledge of general apttitude.

hi friend,
first of all i wish you all the best...the preparation from the base only helps you to win at the end for all the UPSC exams,so you just start preparing.
preparation process:just start studying your subjects thoroughly and then general knowledge also read news paper.mostly the person who are all strong in their field of chosen subject is winning the exam... later after you reach final year apply for exam.if you follow these procedure i m sure you'll succeeded in the exam

all the best

It's good to plan for exams like IES from now itself.GATE and IES are similar to each other since both are related to the core subjects of your Engineering but the only change is that students of selective branches like Civil,Electrical,Mechanical,Electronics and Tele Communication are allowed to go through the IES exam.

Since your a first year student hence you will basically go through the fundamentals i.e for example if your an Electrical student then Electrical Circuit Analysis will be one of the first subjects that you learn.First go through the syllabus and then decide where to start your preparation.IES syllabus consists of only core subjects of your branch.After going though the syllabus start your preparation by following standard books.There are even guides and other such material available in the market for IES exam but it will be better that you prefer separate books for separate subjects rather than just following guides and other materials.

As a first year student all you need to do is learn the fundamentals in a better manner.Without the fundamentals other subjects will be tough to learn.

it is a good idea for getting ur dream if u want to prepration for IES with ur engineering study than it is a good idea........
.>> first of all check the syllabus of IES Exam ......
.>> In IES exam syllabus have only core subject of engineering than study well of that subject
.>> if you do prepration yearly subject by subject than you alaso score more mark in engineering subject as well as u are also preprae for those subject for IES.
.>> when you will be on 2nd , 3rd n 4th year you got more technical subject related to your branch so give more time on those year.
.>> now clear the basic fundamental subject n syllabus , do planning how to study year by yaer .
.>> dont be forgat to revise previous year subject.
etc

hey its too early to start for IES

IES syllabus includes questions from your engineering

course, in first year you can not do much, an ideal IES

preparation starts with revision of required papers.

hence my suggestion is that you concentrate on studying the engineering

properly and in addition strengthen your english.

for future.

read some magazines like csr and chronicle

they provide good information about the IES etc conducted by

UPSC

Well, its very good to see such foresighted plans. First of all, one should spend maximum time to the courses being studied at college as they are the heart of the IES\GATE examinations. So, what is important is to orient your college curriculum studies according to the needs of the competitive exam. Since you are a first year student so you have a minimum of 3 years for the IES exams. No doubt, an extra amount of hard-work and research is needed but it will be worth your while.
You may definitely refer to branch\subject specific books in your college libraries or buy them from the markets but take care the time spent on them is not at the cost of your performance in college. Good Luck!

<<<<GOOD START EARNS GOOD RESULTS>>>>

steps to do from now on:

1. understand all the concepts in the class well and view them from the subjective point of view.

2. follow standard books lik
R.S.KHURMI,
R.K.BANSAL,
J.K.GUPTA,
R.K.JAIN,
P.K.NAG
for all ur subjects...this will improve ur understanding.

3. start the mock test by third year itself.

4. u r eligible to appear in the IES exam during the final year of ur study.

One should join any correspondence course of any well reputed institute of IES preparation. He can practice sample papers on internet.These methods will help in securing good rank.......

i recommend you for preparation
aptitute-r.s.agrawalla
you did not mention your subject

* but i say that in this exam some patience will require for crack this.......

*concept clear all these things
that is help full to you in exam..............

u shold keep u r basics clear and have good cnceptual knowledge of the subject and the topics within it.

dear friend,
see, as you are now in 1st year, so i think there is long time to prepare yourself for the IES exam... you have not mentioned that from which branch you are.. if you are from core branch like - electrical,mechanical,civil,electronics then to prepare for IES you have to make your base strong.... you have to clear your concept... it is good that you are thinking of it from the 1st year... so read properly, take preparation..
i think you will definitely crack the IES exam at the first attempt..
all the very best..

you should have deep knowledge of your engineering field and consult some good books and teachers.

I am a 3rd year mechanial engineering student. I want join in ies exam . What can i do?

Hi.

IES stands for the Indian Engineering Services and its one of the toughest exams in India. An engineering student needs to crack IES in order to get government jobs related to the field of Engineering in India.

Eligibility criteria for IES examination :

1. A candidate should be a minimum graduate in B.E/B.Tech/B.Arch from a recognized university or board college.

2. He/She should have score atleast 60% aggregate in the graduation.

3. The age limit for IES is as follows :

a) 21-30 years for GENERAL category
b) 21-33 years for OBC category
c) 21-35 years for SC/ST category

4. A general candidate can take upto 4 attempts, where as an OBC can take upto 7 attempts but SC/ST have no limits to the no. of attempts they take.

So, first of all IES is 3 years far from you as of now. It would be best to start your preparation right in the 1st year itself, but see that you maintain your momentum all through.

Go with the course that is taught to you in college, and then in your free time or time allotted for IES preparation, look through other IES specific books for those same topics which were taught to you.

Develop an understanding of the subject. The knowledge matters a lot in such entrance examinations.

Since you have not giving which stream you are from, I am unable to provide you with the names of books.

All the best with your preparation.
