Women face unique challenges in UPSC preparation, including societal pressures balancing family responsibilities with rigorous study demands. Gender biases and stereotypes can impact both their self-confidence and the support they receive, leading to increased anxiety. Additionally, access to resources such as coaching institutes and study materials may not always be equitable. As a result, women may require tailored support systems to navigate these challenges effectively. Encouragement from mentors and establishing gender-sensitive policies within educational frameworks can help bridge these gaps and empower female aspirants.
