Priya Purohit (Reserve List) CSE 2023, student of Foundation Batch 2022-23, Educrat IAS Academy
Cracking the UPSC Civil Services Exam is a dream for many, but the path to that dream can be daunting, especially for those venturing out alone. Priya Purohit’s story is one of such determination and the invaluable support she found at Educrat IAS Academy.Â
 Priya, a graduate from St. Xavier’s College, Kolkata, decided to trade the corporate world for a shot at becoming a civil servant. Her dream, however, lacked a familiar roadmap. Unlike many aspirants, Priya wouldn’t find guidance from family members who had navigated the UPSC journey before. This is where Educrat IAS Academy stepped in, becoming more than just a coaching institute – it became Priya’s support system.Â
Her initial attempt was a testament to her grit. She embarked on self-study, scouring the internet for resources and diving headfirst into preparation. However, the lack of a mentor or a structured approach left her questioning her methods. Online communities offered little solace, and months into her preparation, Priya realized the importance of proper guidance. This realization led her to Educrat IAS Academy. Â
 Priya’s search for a coaching institute wasn’t just about academics; it was about finding the right environment. Coming from Kolkata, the established coaching hubs in Delhi seemed like the natural choice. But a simple online search led her to Educrat IAS, and a strong connection was forged immediately. What truly impressed Priya was the presence of mentors with government service experience – a quality she highly valued. Unlike spoon-feeding information, Educrat promised the valuable asset of strategic guidance, exactly what Priya craved.Â
The initial setback of not clearing the mains in her first attempt was a turning point. It highlighted the need for not just academic support but also the mental and strategic aspects of the exam. At Educrat, Priya found exactly that. The mentors wasted no time, crafting a personalized plan to address her shortcomings.Â

Educrat’s approach went beyond just the core subjects. Priya, who had initially neglected the CSAT section, was guided towards its importance, a realization that proved valuable when she faced challenging CSAT questions in 2023. The academy’s focus on syllabus-oriented learning and regular tests helped Priya refine her approach from broad reading to targeted preparation.Â
Priya’s success story isn’t just about acing the syllabus. Educrat IAS Academy played a crucial role in equipping her for the crucial interview round. Understanding current affairs and in-depth knowledge about her state became Priya’s weapons of choice, thanks to the guidance she received.Â

Lastly, Priya admits that she also had many days when she wasn’t at her best and found it difficult to study. Throughout the exam process, she faced her fair share of depressing moments. However, she received heartfelt words of support and encouragement from her mentors at Educrat IAS Academy. Failing to advance to the interview phase on her first attempt deeply hurt her, but the mentors offered a glimmer of optimism during that time. Priya still cherishes all the screenshots of those moments.Â
