Harsh Agarwal balanced a full-time job with FIRST IAS INSTITUTE’s online CAPF programme. Weeknights were for concepts; weekends for full papers.

He submitted essays for evaluation and joined live doubt sessions to stay connected with faculty pace.

Physical training happened early mornings so written prep never competed with fitness in the same time block.

CISF selection rewarded that separation of concerns and steady online accountability.

Harsh’s message to working aspirants: protect two non-negotiable slots—study and fitness—and let everything else flex.

“I could not study eight hours. I could study two focused hours daily—and mentors made those hours count.”

— Harsh Agarwal
