Ranks, every year
16 selections across five consecutive Civil Services Examinations — from CSE 2021 to CSE 2025, including AIR 41.
Across each of these years, students were taught by the same faculty and received the same personally evaluated answer-writing guidance.
Mentorship · One-to-one
A mentor who answers
Preparation can feel isolating, especially when you are studying away from a peer group or academic environment.
Regular mentorship calls, a study plan tailored to your preparation stage, and timely doubt support help ensure that you always know what to work on, what to improve, and what to prioritise next.

The person behind it
Taught by one person, start to finish
Psyche Simplified began with a simple purpose: to give Psychology Optional aspirants access to serious, evaluated answer-writing support. Over time, it has grown into a complete preparation programme spanning foundation classes, answer writing, test evaluation, and individual mentorship. What has remained unchanged is the academic continuity. Sanket Jain teaches the programme personally and evaluates the answer scripts himself, allowing teaching, feedback, and mentorship to remain closely aligned throughout the preparation cycle.
Psychology Optional demands more than familiarity with theory. Strong answers require precision — the right researcher, relevant evidence, clear diagrams, and the ability to connect concepts from Paper I with applications in Paper II. The programme is structured around developing exactly this kind of answer-writing discipline.
- Complete coverage of Paper I and Paper II, supported by Indian research, contemporary examples, and relevant case material
- Personally evaluated answer writing, with detailed feedback and discussion after tests
- Continuously updated notes and examples, incorporating relevant research, developments, and applications through the year

Why aspirants stay
Small batches, personal evaluation
Scripts marked by hand
Every answer comes back with margin notes, the missing researcher named, and a corrected structure.
A call after every test
Feedback lands better spoken than written. We discuss the paper before you attempt the next one.
Notes that stay current
New studies and news that fit the syllabus are added through the year and shared with the batch.
Plans around your months
Joining with four months left is a different plan from joining with a year. We write both.
In their words
What students say afterwards
“
The mentorship gave my preparation a spine. Weekly calls meant I could not drift, and the reading material was always one step ahead of what I needed.
Anushtha KaliaAIR 228 · CSE 2025“
I had no psychology background. The foundation classes started from zero and still reached the depth the Mains paper expects.
Prachiti DeshmukhCSE Aspirant · Pune“
What changed my score was the feedback. Every script came back marked line by line, with the research I had missed added in the margin.

Before you enrol
If your question is not here, call +91 79873 91094 or +91 99580 76566 and ask directly. Someone from the teaching team answers, not a call centre.
Yes. Most of our students come from engineering, commerce and humanities. The Foundation course assumes no prior exposure and builds Paper 1 concepts before moving to applied Paper 2.
Both. Live sessions are scheduled in the evening so working aspirants can attend, and every session is recorded and available for the full validity of the course.
Sanket Sir evaluates personally. You get line-by-line remarks, a model answer, the research or thinker you should have cited, and a call to discuss what to change in the next paper.
Yes. Applied psychology is where most aspirants lose marks. We cover organisational, community, health and educational applications with Indian examples and recent studies.
Tell us your timeline on the counselling call. We regularly build compressed plans for aspirants joining with three or four months left, prioritising high-yield chapters and answer writing.
Classroom batches run in Delhi and the same batch streams online. You can switch between the two modes during the course at no extra cost.
