Will studying hard make you successful in your career too?
According to this year's IAS topper Mona Pruthi, who chatted with Get Ahead readers on May 12: 'Only studying hard does not get you to the top. You must also be dedicated and committed to be a good administrator.'

Mona ji, Sir Mark Tully has said in his book : "I have found so often in India that the government was the problem not the solution�.and�that Indian police are only for the poor, they don't touch the rich and the influential�"�we all know that whatever he has written is a fact.How do you think this impression can be changed?zub asked,

Hi Congrats,, how d u rate ur self.. whats the Success mantraSibiDelhi asked,
You should study what Thampi Kannanthanam and TN Sheshan did in the past. You told me to clarify the double stantard in the Indian Education System. Here it is. There are all the facilities available for rich people and nothing for poor people. The situation is worse in rural areas. We have English medium and local language medium schools. We have Government and private management schools and colleges. Even after scoring 92% marks in maths in matriculation from a local language medium school, I struggled for my higher study. But I can see thousands acquiring seats even after scoring less in exams.manjit asked, mam i m final year student from PTU nd i want to appear for 2007 so how i can start?
Mona Pruthi answers, Start reading NCERT textbooks from class six to twelve. Select two good options that interest you and work on them. Read the The Hindu newspaper everyday.

Hi Monaji. Congrats. My question is "I am working as a software professional and cannot quit my job for monetary reasons. But still I want to prepare for IAS while in the job. I know it is very difficult. But do you think sustained effort (as far as time devoted per day is concerned) over a longer period of time can possibly be a way for IAS preparation"Mahavir1 asked,
