Candidates approaching interdisciplinary studies to cover the UPSC syllabus holistically should start by mapping connections between various subjects. For instance, linking Geography to Environment helps understand issues like climate change and resource management. Emphasizing problem-solving and critical thinking across disciplines enriches comprehension and fosters a broader perspective. Collaborative learning with peers can enhance this approach, allowing for diverse viewpoints and discussion. Synthesizing material from different domains promotes a more integrated understanding, which is crucial for effectively addressing complex questions in the exam.
