PERFORMANCE ENGINE

From Individual Decisions to a Discipline Index

Fixed-time GS + CSAT attempts under exam pressure

STEP 2

Decision Capture

Every attempt classified by decision type, not just correctness

STEP 3

Pattern Formation

Repeated behaviours emerge across multiple tests

STEP 4

Discipline Index

A structured measure of consistency, restraint, and conversion quality

PERFORMANCE INDEX

Measuring Discipline — Not Just Scores

Conversion Quality

Stability Under Pressure

Consistency Across Tests

These dimensions are tracked across tests to surface behavioural drift long before it becomes fatal in UPSC.

CORRECTION LOOP

Accountability Is the Training
