Intuition plays a significant role in answering UPSC questions effectively. Candidates often encounter complex problems under time pressure, and relying on intuition can help in quickly identifying the most plausible answer. This skill comes from a solid grasp of key concepts and thorough practice in previous years' papers. While logical reasoning and knowledge are critical, intuition allows candidates to make informed guesses when necessary, particularly in ambiguous situations. Developing intuition through regular revision and mock tests can enhance performance, enabling candidates to think quickly and critically during the exam.
