Why Choose Us for the Sociology Optional Foundation?

Sociology Optional is chosen for its concise syllabus and overlap with GS, but many aspirants face hurdles. Theories often feel abstract and difficult to grasp, thinkers are hard to apply in a contemporary Indian context, and answers lack the sociological depth examiners expect. Without structured guidance, updated case studies, and answer writing discipline, even dedicated students struggle to score consistently high in Sociology. At GS SCORE, our Sociology Optional Foundation is designed to tackle these challenges directly.
