Independent guidance · Official notification always controls
Editorial standards

Every important claim should lead back to evidence.

Our rules for sourcing, freshness, uncertainty, independence and corrections are public so readers can judge the quality of our work.

Source hierarchy

What controls our answer

  1. 01Current intake notification and its corrigenda
  2. 02Current notice on the relevant official recruitment portal
  3. 03Stable UPSC or service information page
  4. 04Ministry of Defence or PIB material for policy context
  5. 05Secondary context only when no decision-critical fact depends on it

Search snippets, coaching websites and AI-generated answers are not evidence.

Review and labelling

Freshness is part of accuracy

Live facts

Applications, deadlines, vacancies, corrigenda and results require working-day monitoring during active windows.

Evergreen guidance

Entry and selection explanations are reviewed at least every 90 days and after relevant official changes.

Corrections

We correct transparently

When a material error is confirmed, we correct the page, update its review date and record what changed. When official sources conflict, we label the issue “verification in progress” rather than presenting a definitive answer.

Report a correction: email hello@marchaheadacademy.com with the page address, disputed information and the official source where possible.

Independence

What we will not claim

  • Guaranteed selection, medical clearance or a “sure-shot” method
  • Government affiliation, endorsement or privileged selection access
  • Predicted cut-offs presented as official facts
  • Success rates, testimonials or credentials without supporting evidence and permission
