Home (http://iasbaba.com) Geography Optional: Think, Learn and Perform (Online), 2016
Once again, we are extremely glad to announce the Think, Learn and Perform, online initiative for Geography optional. It is a 75 day plan to cover the
entire optional syllabus in a comprehensive and innovative manner. It has been planned in a way that by investing 4-5 hours from the daily routine, one
can maximize his/her output. The only thing required from your side is commitment towards this plan. If you religiously follow this initiative, we can
assure you that the chances of increasing your scores would rise substantially.
1. We have already given you the detailed study plans for various components of the syllabus in terms of syllabus, approach, imperatives,
resources etc. The strategy would be updated regularly to cover all the remaining portions of the syllabus.
2. Kindly note that although we shall be providing strategies for individual components of the syllabus and in fact have already provided for most
of them, the representative strategy for Physical Geography is Climatology. Therefore, through the strategy of Climatology Frst. But in no case
avoid the detailed strategies of other portions.
3. The relevant portions of Paper I and II have been clubbed to ease your efforts. Geography optional cant be understood without seamless
integration of topics from different components of the syllabus. For example, you cant understand desertiFcation without having fair idea of
climatic regions of the world. Similarly, you are expected to apply the concepts of Paper I into Paper II and vice versa. There are certain topics
which are repeated e.g agro and social forestry, desertiFcation, disasters etc. We have thus integrated such topics in the plan. It will deFnitely
give you a better and comprehensive idea of the subject. Most importantly, this approach saves a lot of your time and effort.
4. Based on this strategy and your efforts, we shall be posting a total of 5 questions daily. These questions shall be in the following format.
Question 2. Terminologies related to the chapter/topic mentioned in the 100 day plan
Question 3. Blue blooded Geography theory question to check your conceptual clarity
Question 5. Reserved; may be of any type depending upon the requirement of topic
5. We dont guarantee reviews from IASbaba as we are facing recourse crunch at this moment. Still, we will try our best to review the answers of
regular and sincere candidates. Last year, the strength of the feedback system was the robust peer support that was formed by the followers of
the programme themselves. This year also, you can form groups of maximum 5-6 candidates and connect with each other for mutual reviews
and feedback.
6. Mini tests will be conducted every 15 days. This means that you shall have a minimum of 5 mini tests during this period.
7. After the completion of 75 days, full mock test for both the papers will be conducted.
8. Periodically IASbaba will come up with articles for important and tricky topics and also about improving the quality of answers.
