UPSC LONG-TERM MENTORSHIP PROGRAMME
— Major Oberoi Academy
Personalised UPSC Mentorship — Major Oberoi Academy Overview The Long-Term Mentorship Programme is built for aspirants who already have some grounding in the UPSC syllabus but need consistent, personalised guidance to convert preparation into performance — a structured relationship with a mentor over an extended period (often across multiple attempts), rather than a one-time class. Where the Foundation Course builds content knowledge, the Mentorship Programme is built around strategy, accountability, and course-correction — the things that most often decide whether a well-prepared candidate actually converts their preparation into a selection.
Programme Structure
- One-on-one strategy sessions: & Governance — Regular, scheduled sessions to assess progress, identify weak areas, and adjust the study plan — [FILL IN frequency, e.g. bi-weekly/monthly]
- Personalised study plan: — Built around the individual student's target attempt, current strengths, optional subject, and available study time (especially relevant for working professionals and repeaters)
- Answer writing evaluation: — Ongoing, detailed review of Mains answers with actionable, individual feedback rather than generic comments
- Current affairs strategy: — Guidance on how to consume and retain current affairs efficiently rather than passively
- Test performance analysis: — Detailed review of test series performance to identify recurring error patterns
- Interview & Personality Test guidance: — Long-horizon preparation for the interview stage, not just a crash course after Mains results — a natural strength area given the founder's defence-services interview and assessment background)
- Motivation & accountability check-ins: — Regular contact to keep long-preparation-cycle aspirants consistent, especially during difficult stretches of a multi-year UPSC journey
