How to use this
Numbers first. Then one topic.
Do not treat counts as prophecy
- One paper can spike a quiet subject
- Primary tags are editorial joins, not UPSC labels
- Mains demand is a different distribution
Turn weightage into attempted practice.
Filter by year or subject, attempt authentic PYQs, and connect each miss back to a visual deck and syllabus path.
