  The UPSC 3-Year Program at Tathastu Institute of Civil Services is designed specifically for students who have just begun their college journey and aim to integrate their undergraduate studies with comprehensive UPSC preparation. This program covers the entirety of the UPSC syllabus over three years, ensuring that students completing their degree in 2027 are well-prepared without sacrificing their academic pursuits.
  Students entering college often face multiple challenges when considering the preparation for UPSC alongside their degree:
  Uncertainty about the Future: Many students are uncertain about their career paths post-12th class. They fear making decisions that may not align with their long-term goals. The lack of clear guidance and understanding of various career options can lead to anxiety and indecision among students.
  Long-Term Career Planning: Many students are unsure about committing to the civil services due to the uncertain nature of the competitive exam landscape.
  Foundational Knowledge Gaps: Fresh high school graduates may lack the foundational knowledge necessary for the broad and diverse subjects covered in the UPSC exams.
  Managing Academic and Exam Stress: The dual pressure of university exams and UPSC preparation can lead to high stress and potential burnout.
  Need for a Solid Educational Foundation: Students often worry that their 12th-class education might not have provided them with a strong enough foundation for competitive exams like the UPSC Civil Services Examination. The shift from science subjects in school to a humanities-focused competitive exam can be daunting without proper foundational knowledge.
  Career Security and Growth: There's a prevalent desire to choose a career path that not only offers job security but also opportunities for growth and personal development. The fear of investing time and resources into a career path with uncertain prospects can be a significant stressor.
  Gap Year Dilemma: Students contemplating a gap year for UPSC prep worry about the risk involved if they do not succeed in the exams. The uncertainty of taking a gap year without a backup plan adds to the stress and decision-making burden.
