1. EVALUATION using RAU’S EVALUATION

MATRIX*

All questions will be evaluated using Rau’s

evaluation matrix which has been devised to

simulate UPSC standard as closely as possible.

According to UPSC – “The Main Examination is

intended to assess the overall intellectual traits

and depth of understanding of candidates

rather than merely the range of their information

and memory.”

Rau’s evaluation matrix decodes the two factors

DEPTH OF UNDERSTANDING

Context or Question

Interpretation

Content (Relevancy, balance,

enrichment points, etc)

INTELLECTUAL TRAIT or how

you present your ideas

Structure (paragraphs, points,

pictorial representation etc)

Language (articulation,

grammar, etc)

2. REVIEW or cross-check of the evaluated answer sheets to provide depth to the quality of evaluation and ensure

that the feedback given provides constructive suggestions on all parameters indicated in the evaluation matrix.

3. PERSONAL MENTORSHIP

How to incorporate suggestions provided in feedback to improve answer writing

Evaluation of re-written answers (written after incorporating suggestions)

Personal mentorship can be availed either in person or telephonically (for online/distance learning students)

It is strongly recommended to seek personal mentorship after every few tests.

Mentorship can help immensely in incremental improvement over the year
