Questions students ask
Which UPSC books should I buy used first?
The standard reference set — Polity, Modern History, Geography and Economy — plus NCERTs for classes 6 to 12. These barely change between editions, so used copies are excellent value.
Do sellers list current-affairs magazines?
Sometimes, but current-affairs material dates fast. The listings that hold value are standard references, NCERTs and optional-subject books.
