Neha Verma prepared at FIRST IAS INSTITUTE Gurgaon with a clear State PCS goal. She used the institute’s GS framework while layering Haryana-specific polity, economy, and current affairs.

Mentors helped her distinguish UPSC-depth content from PCS-relevant emphasis so revision stayed efficient.

Regular sectional tests and answer writing kept her exam-ready without spreading thin across every national topic.

Selection into HCS validated that state services demand equal seriousness—and benefit from civil-services classroom rigor.

Neha recommends aspirants pick one primary target and build state notes early rather than as an afterthought.

“I prepared like CSE, but revised like PCS. That dual lens made the difference.”

— Neha Verma
