  • This website was recommended to me by a friend some months back and I have been using it since then. Your daily updates to the UPSC section helped me in preparing myself for my first UPSC attempt.

    I prepared through every single section of GK, IAS and Current Affairs on this site. I took up the paper and started reading the questions and I immediately knew that I have seen many of them here.

    I have been recommending CareerRide to my fellow aspirants. Thank you very much for the daily updates and the preparation tests.
