✍️ ಸ್ಪಷ್ಟ ಬರವಣಿಗೆ ಖಚಿತ ಸಾಧನೆ- Essay Writing Mastery Programme for PSI / ESI Aspirants
Table of Contents
🎯 Core Objective:
To equip PSI / ESI aspirants with the skillset, strategy, and speed required to write high-scoring essays in descriptive exams.
The programme emphasizes:
- Exam relevance (topics drawn from syllabus, PYQs & current affairs).
- Time management (practice under exam-like conditions).
- Evaluation standards (training as per what examiners actually reward).
⚡ In short: Prabandha Setu is not about writing “good” essays; it’s about writing essays that fetch maximum marks in PSI/ESI exams.
