Dear Aspirants,

What separates a good answer from a great one in UPSC and State PSC exams? Structure. Recall. Precision. And that’s exactly where this booklet becomes your secret weapon.

Welcome to a two-part mnemonic powerhouse:

• Part 1: 148 mnemonics spanning Segment 1 to Segment 4 (This part)

Each mnemonic is a memory trigger, a writing anchor, and a revision hack—all rolled into one. These mnemonics are crafted to help you recall faster, think clearer, and write sharper than your competitors for Ethics.

I've made this not just as a resource, but as a companion in your journey—because I know how important it is to stand out in a crowd of lakhs.

Take your time, revisit often, and internalize these. These are not just letters and phrases—they are frameworks for excellence.

Remember:

"You don’t rise to the level of your competition; you rise to the level of your preparation." And this mnemonic booklet? That’s your edge.

All the best—go write like a topper.
