As for as prelims is  concern there two papers  civil services aptitude and general studies and if a particular person clear this examinations and reaches the main  examination ,there are nine papers  two qualifying paper ,  one is English and other could be the regional language and apart from this  one essay paper and four general studies paper  and optional papers  you know one option and two paper ,paper I and paper II , so this is the pattern and the  interview  the personality test ,I think this is the examination pattern .

I think it help a person to crack this Civil service better than reading the number and number of books.
