Even though Kerala is one of the highest literate states in India, there has been much reluctance among the youth of this state to compete in National level exams like UPSC Civil Service exam. While contacting different schools across the state and interacting with parents, teachers and students on different occasions, we come across this apprehension, which is due to a combination of misguidance and wrong concepts about these types of examinations. Lack of confidence, fear and ignorance about these exams are other reasons for this general hesitation to compete.
Race Solution with the support of host of experts in the field are keen to remedy this psychological impediment among school students in Kerala. We are happy to present to you India’s first Junior Civil Service Exam - RACE 2 IAS.
