So, you're aiming for the Political Science PG entrance at Hyderabad University? Awesome! A friend of mine cracked it recently, and here’s what worked:

Past Papers: Hit up the university's website and grab those previous year question papers. They're gold! The test usually has MCQs and some passages.
Political Theory: O.P. Gauba's 'An Introduction to Political Theory' is a must-read. Tailor your reading based on what's usually asked in the past papers.
Indian & Western Political Thought: Check out IGNOU material and Shubhra Ranjan's notes on political thought. You can find them online.
Indian Polity: Laxmikanth is your go-to book.
World History & Politics: NCERT Class 12 textbook on Contemporary World Politics is super helpful.
Current Affairs & International Relations: Follow 'The Hindu' newspaper and Rajya Sabha channel religiously.

Don't sweat the passage part too much; just practice those past papers. Nail these, and you'll see scoring is pretty doable. Good luck!

Its a Question about your future!
