MPSC Geography Preparation Tips

Geography is a subject that asks approximately 15 to 15 questions in the MPSC exam every year, making it a high-scoring subject. Here are some tips from MPSC experts at BYJU'S on how to revise this subject most effectively:

1. If you have less time for revision, focus more on static geography and maintain your conceptual clarity so that you don't lose marks due to confusion.
2. Please make sure you remember the facts and names clearly, as it is straightforward to get confused in geography questions.
3. Remember that not all facts are essential. Focus your iteration more on unique and new developments in existing locations. Also, allow enough time for new developments that have the potential to have a massive impact on Indian geography in general.
4. Revise current affairs for geography from your handmade notes or current affairs magazines.
5. When it comes to static geography, only basic concept-based questions are asked, so it is not intelligent to refer to any other material if your primary study material is NCERT books; refer to basic NCERT books for class 9th, 10th, 11th, and 12th or NCERT notes for study and revision.
6. Aspirants are advised to give more time to Geography in their revision as it holds great importance in the Prelims question paper.
