Yaar analysis toh nhi kiya aise. But just solved the PYQs diligently. And went over the options multiple times
Okay ji!
Mann hi ni kar raha. Itna mann karta hai to come back on Forum but this is not 2020 anymore. My friends@whatonly ,@AzadHindFauz @sjerngal and many others are already selected and I am still slogging. I come here and I feel defeated. Isiliye, mann ni karta aane ka yahan.
I can understand what you're going through but each of us has our own timeline. Your success is just delayed. Also, it's never late to make new friends :)
Imagine coming back to this thread post selection in 2023 and smiling back at this post you've made. Smiling at the fact that you kept going and overcame that phase of so called "Defeat"
22, 23, 24, and 25 July were 0 days and went to TRASH.Few learnings/rants/observations from last 25 days-- The first thought which comes to a Delhite's mind (especially the auto walas/coolie) isn't "Should I scam this guy?", but it is "How much should I scam this guy?" and the answer is "as much as possible"- I've learnt how to stare at your ceiling fan for 12 hours and sleep for the same amount. Perfectly balanced as all things should be.- We uselessly put a lot of detergent just bcos we can, but we don't need to. Have some pity on your beautiful clothes.- People who do not wear white sneakers at least once a week come under the inspection of Intelligence agencies.- Monologues are always better than dialogues, so I avoid making friends.- If it wasn't for Lutyens Delhi and the metro, Delhi doesn't deserve to be the capital of India. But sigh, TINA.- The Internet is the most wonderful human invention only after the photocopy machines, so Thou shall collect as much material as possible.- Delhi is in a perpetual state of flood. Flood of (useless) summaries, compilations, notes, answer writing book by yet another topper who spends her 'precious' time marketing it and wooing aspirants. I have easily avoided all of them though because I simply do not touch any books.- Rewatched 'Andhadhun'. Watched 'RK/RKAY'. Both are very well written, someday I hope to write something 1% as good as these.- Black coffee is an acquired taste.- I can now Iron my Clothes, without iron.- As a kid, I had the main character vibes but I've realised I'm not the main character, I'm not even the side character, forget this, I was removed from the first batch of auditions, bleh.- I despise the tag of "UPSC aspirant"(and many(all) other tags and things). I'll get rid of it asap, my eventual fate awaits me.Do not waste your time by reading/replying to my comments because "Time is extremely valuable"I waste my time writing these because "Time is extremely valuable and I prefer to waste it"
Seemed like a short film of unrelated scenes been put together; but FUN

Achieved this-

@Pepethefrog Pakka trying this. Yes,mummies make you get used to all the comforts of life. And there was someone mentioning about his/her maa's demise on this thread. Tbh it always takes me sometime to soak such expressions of personal tragedies. Mummies are GOD and Papas too!
@LetsGetThisBread Make Chandigarh the Capital of India. Also, Dilli's dil is on ventilator. It either requires a transplant or a ventricular assist.Yaar kaisi city hai jissme gharo ke andaar khidki hi nahi hoti!Lol
Shubh Ratri doston!
Oh no please, Chandigarh would suffer the same fate as Delhi then. That would be personally scarring. :'D

@mightyraju are you from Punjab?
So, I came back to room at 8 pm and had my cheat meal. PSIR wasn't done, but Topic 9 is done sans Energy part. Also, added Logistics part as another head in Topic 9 to add more breadth to this particular topic.Kal ka subah, I'll upload. Though there are few days left before I go into a month long oblivion (semester exams in August), yet I will be uploading my day's schedule in mornings. This will help me in sticking to 6:30 am library deadlines.@Morticia Haha. Weren't you guys sold Delhi Governance Model during recent Municipal Elections? When I saw that happening, I was like fette muh ho tera😂!@LetsGetThisBread Brokers in Delhi be like- Now I am gonna show you the real deal. This ends up with him taking one to another shanty! Also, girls make a shabby room look aesthetic. For boys, it is the complete opposite.Shubh Ratri doston!When I lived in ORN I once joked that soon they’ll give us coffins to sleep in and uska bhi rent maangenge. My friends weren’t amused 😬

Came across a profound comment today: Child Marriage is Child Prostitution/Sex Trafficking, with Narrow client base.
Didn't do anything. I'm a useless lump of flesh & bones, without an iota of self-discipline.

A random thought.
Lately, i've been experiencing the silly ways that cse (and its failures) change you.
I recently joined instagram, after a 3 years-long break. And began to feel a parental pity for how my old classmates are spending (read squandering) their lives. I am 22 this year, so are my friends. 😐.I see my friends becoming parents on Instagram and it’s just pity that I feel. 😶
(Disclaimer: I love babies but at some point everyone hates their kid)
@LetsGetThisBread being her best self yet again :P
I'm glad I'm still at a stage where I only receive news of pals getting married; seeing them become parents would require a different level of courage 😆

Reading these I find myself stupid....being jealous of my friends who are in live in relations ;p
Much more yet to see :(
That could be a valid reason for jealousy.😆 Marriage or becoming parents ain't 🤣 It's just a sad reminder of how years are passing and people are advancing while you are being grilled year after year.
We want what we can’t have 😂
Haha. As a true constitutionalist, you should strive for redistribution of this wealth in the form of fats.
@Morticia Poore gaon mei meri gareebi ka uphaas bnao tum. Lol

Also What a point!@LetsGetThisBread ye ladka aagey jaa k revolution laaega! 😅
Funny how there's a well functioning world outside that you don't feel a part of and try to actively avoid and then there's forum with so many people having similar aches, similar stories, similar fears and similar rhetoric; making you feel at home.
Acha lagta hai to come across words expressing the tempest within you, to know that you're not alone in this 😌🙂
I have really not been in groove since yesterday. I again got up late today and that was still acceptable to an extent.Then, headache did hit me like hell.I don't know whether it is due to my recently diagnosed eyesight issues yaa mai awein hi looking for excuses.
Pta nahi what it really is, but I will be in the library before 7:30 tomorrow. Starting a day on a positive note has always helped me.So, hopefully it will wake my out of the slumber.
Targets updation in the morning(Before 7:30 am)
@LetsGetThisBread I pray for your mental well being. Hopefully, you will survive this bout of absurdity after reading my scripts, ma'am. Also, you can choose to be bribed.Lol.
Shubh Ratri doston.
Apparently I’ve heard professors get paid 3 lakhs to correct the copies. 😬😬😬

Could anyone from a non humanities background or someone not actively interested in subjects like polity and governance, kindly brief me as to how they go about internalizing or retaining them.
I have read it multiple times but somehow end up not retaining much. This could attributed to lack of active interest or too objective frame of mind that I possess.
Any interest generating or memorising techniques, suggestions, inputs are welcome 😊
@SiddhantW Thanks. Also,nothing specific per se. Just an overall hold on the subject.
@Aazaad I'll surely have a look at the course, thanks for suggesting.
Also, can you guys give an example of the "If, not, while format" for clarity.
Hi all!
I'm back after a hectic day(yesterday) and a mindful break(today). Posting targets here keeps me in check, so I wouldn't have been able to stay away for too long anyway.
Today's target is to get everything in order and start September on a good note 🌼
Good Luck to me and all of you 🌞🌞
Targets: 01/09/22
1. Economy 4A3 +4A4
2. Zoology - Biostats. - 3hrs
3. TIE+Notes
Revision - 4A1+ 4A2+1A1
Targets repeat for 02/09/22
Did Some revision + all the newspaper backlogs
1. Newspaper Done
2. Revision - Done
Rest: Not done
Amidst all of this chaos that prep creates, I feel like I'm losing myself and I do not wish to be so lost that I cannot recognize myself. How do I stay afloat? By doing things I love? How do I do the things I love? Is there any time to do that , 'cause I feel like it is always running out?
This should have been somewhere in my diary, not on this thread. But, here it is; This thread feels like home on days I do not feel at home with myself. Afterall, it is here that I see an account of everything that I have done and not done. I am afriad, I am getting too attached :P
I am always short of words when I wish to communicate my feelings. So, I compensate with silent hugs to everyone at home and write what helps me clear my head. Probably, this is one of the things I love, and this where I begin, and my worries end - My words will steady me , when everything else fails...
"Our worst foes are not belligerent circumstances, but wavering spirits.”
~Helen Keller
@Avixiva So relatable 🥲
@SiddhantW Thanks. Also,nothing specific per se. Just an overall hold on the subject.
@Aazaad I'll surely have a look at the course, thanks for suggesting.
Also, can you guys give an example of the "If, not, while format" for clarity.
Most basic scenarios will be - "If bill passed by a house what happens , if not what happens"
"If governor reserves a bill what happens, goes to president , if passed again what happens"
If you've anything specific in mind, please go ahead.
You can also use comparison and contrasting between functions and powers of bodies/post etc.
Refer to PYQs to ensure you are learning right things and not worrying about memorizing stuff that doesn't matter. It was the biggest problem in my prep.
Making tables has also helped me in Polity, small tables on powers of pres and governor, powers of SC HC, where they differ ; powers of RS- LS, similarly for constitutional bodies. Makes revision easy, and referencing easier, if I get a question, I either see if it was in those tables and if not then I add it, if it was there I revise it.
Tables seem the way out for me too. Easier to retain.
@Aazaad Got it. Thank you. Yes, PYQs are indispensable

Today's Progress-
A small confession- Last 10-12 pages of Monthly are still to be finished.
So,I found a decent rhythm after a week or so after I was done with exams. I honestly loved it.Today was a slow ride, where I could grasp almost everything I read. Even reading the Vision monthly didn't seem like a shitty task.
@LetsGetThisBread Same energy yaar. If there is one thing that I love the most(and still quite inaccessible),it is my sleep. A funny anecdote here- So, last summer when I felt like sleeping while studying, I made a mischievous plan. I closed my room and even the fans to ensure that I get to hear the footsteps when my parents come near the door. But alas, I was caught red handed.
In my limited choice of aspirations, I want to have 3-4 days on trot, where I just sleep and sleep without having to care for anything.
@Morticia This is such a good start. Best of luck dost.
@DancingMaster You didn't change your username but rather you are reborn
@huck A genuine advice- Except for IR part of GS2, don't jump to Mains 365 straightway. It will make the coverage of topics a bit haphazard.
Shubh Ratri doston.
*I need to run since the gates to my society close at around 10:15.
Thanks Frand!
Happy to see you get back in the groove. Told you; it'll only be few days of adjustment 😅

Will we get the bread tomorrow? Time will tell I guess :)
Got done absolutely nothing so far. Didn’t realise how draining going back to college is going to be in this heat. I over anticipated my own productivity levels. It doesn’t help that I’m fasting as well. The first week of getting back into my IF routine is always painful. Yeh hafta low productivity m hi niklega I guess, FML
Don't tell me, "16 somvaar k vrat" 😂

Got a newfound love for life. Love you zindagi!
I was hospitalised for the last 15 days, in the initial days my fever was hovering around 101 all the time even after heavy paracetamol. Blood tests, canola, syringes and all the painful tests I had gone through. Sometimes I felt Im losing myself in the war, even the doctors scared me as reason for high fever could not be diagnosed. It was so painful that words wont be enough to explain.
Not only my experience but I heard about a 4 month old baby admitted in the hospital. In the emergency, I heard noises of family of a man in 30s crying who died of an accident. My nurse told me about another man who died in ICU. One of my roomates had to go through MRI to spot a blood clot in brain which was causing hazy vision to him. A diabetic aunty who was not able to move her right hand beyond a point after a road accident. An alcoholic college boy had destroyed his pancreas or liver I couldn't remember to whom the doctor said youll die in 3 months if you dont quit alcohol. You get to know many things when you stay such a long time in hospital.
I came home today. Heaven. We take most of the things for granted, quality time with family and friends, all the UPSC pain everything is a blessing. Every painless breath is a blessing.
Naukri aur chokri, you get these desirable and life is set we used to say in college. These 15 days changed my whole perspective for looking towards life. Healthy and a painless life is indeed underrated
And I swear from today Ill never crib about shitty things like career and UPSC.
'Love you zindagi'
Having suffered from health issues myself i can totally relate with you. There was a point in my life where my biggest wish was to wake up one morning and not feel pain. I envied healthy people. I envied normal life. Carreer goals, wealth, everything seemed hollow in face of the reality of my own mortality. It reminded me that life's biggest possessions are the ones that we take for granted - a loving family, good health, mental peace...but frail creatures as we are and given to amnesia which is why history keeps repeating as tragedy and farce ....i forgot all about it one year down the line as my health improved. Your experience resuccitated the dead memories and lessons for me. Thank you for expressing yourself so honestly and plainly. Wishing you good health.
Having lost initial years of preparation to poor health, excruciating pain and inability to sit and study for long, no matter how much you desire; I completely empathise with you guys.
Good health to you@Tata.
We're stronger than this!

Peeth peeche toh abhi bhi wohi bulana hai 🤣
Hahaha you are absolutely right…. But Give her some slack, please. General studies me itna generalisation chalta hai. In the words of Mrunal sir, “Thoda padho aage badho”.
However, ‘Latent of Condensation’ was a valid point.
Don’t complicate it so much. The line of thinking is:
- Warm air ascends.
- We consider adiabatic expansion while the air ascends. Therefore, with expansion of air parcels, the temperature decreases.
- When the temperature reaches dew point, the air parcel attains maximum relative humidity and thus looses moisture.
- The suspended particles in the air act as sites for nucleation and further condensation.
- Latent heat of condensation is released, which further increases the temperature of air parcels.
- The air parcel thus ascends further, to reach dew point again and form clouds.
If you already know this much, then you’re good to go. Geography if not that difficult.
Simple beautiful explanation!
Just came across a couple of really magnificent pictures, and well, just felt like sharing.
1- Yarlung Tsangpo Grand Canyon (aka Brahmputra Canyon), Tibet
2- Harishchandragad Peak, Maharashtra
These are beautiful!
I've always harboured this dilemma of whether pictures should be post processed or not. It is a visual treat but a part of me feels that it heightens your expectation of a place or view or whatever and causes disappointment when you actually see the real object/sight.
Should this be counted as deceit or should the art be appreciated? The everlasting dilemma continues! 😅
[P.S. I am not against post processing at all! It enhances picture quality but at times makes it very different from what the subject actually is]

So, idk about Delhi but the "sardiyon" wali dhoop has started setting in here 🥰
Happy Day Fellas!
@Ghostwalker I've lost many friends during the course of preparation and because of not staying in touch, rather not having a phone and I know how lonely it gets. I guess most of us are lonely in this preparation and that's why we have this thread. To relate to each other and help each other out.
"Sigma" male ka toh nahi pata, male friends log ispe prakaash daalenge XD
But yes you have to accept the emotions, the turmoil and the loneliness this journey brings. Talk to someone, let it all out and then work towards your goal again. I know it is easier said than done but we all at least have one friend who is close to us. Rant to them, eat their head. I'm sure if they are close, they won't mind.
Trust me, if you let it out, half of your crisis is solved.
Friends nahi hain toh find someone on the thread. PM them. If they're willing to hear you out talk to them.
As alluring as solitude might sound or look to be, we as humans are social creatures and have a natural inclination towards socialising. So selective socialising karo. If you're in Delhi, try and meet people from this thread/community who are looking for that camaraderie. Maybe you end up finding gems. People who've been here have an amazing bond.@Rashmirathi @LetsGetThisBread would agree. You can surely find your own lot too!
Padhai pe gyaan nahi dungi because mujhse way worthy log hain yaha who can guide you regarding prep but I'll quote H.W. Longfellow in an attempt to boost your spirits:
We all can relate to you. You can say whatever you want in this thread, We’re all ears.
Remember, this preparation phase is temporary. Preparing in seclusion is the primary or basic rule of this game. You can opt out of this game, whenever you want. You are free. But if you want to be a winner, you have to face this challenge.
If it’s daily routine, and not able to complete the targets, that’s troubling you then try going easy on yourself.
For example, try to wake up early in the morning. Get out for a walk. Divide your day in 4 quarters. Read newspaper and a book of your choice in the first quarter of the day. Breakfast me nayi chijen try karo roj (my new favourite is Jhaal murhi). In the next 2 quarters, study as if you are doing a job. In the last quarter of the day, do what you like. Watch’s movie or TV series. Talk to your family, friends, etc even if you need to visit social media. Or forum is always an option. Koi topic chhed do baatein karne ke liye.
And don’t make your life and routine monotonous. Add mirch masala to your life, and kabhi kabhi chhaunk/ tadka bhi.
Ek jaadu ki jhappi 🤗
Really liked your advice of breaking the day into quarters!
Also,is it called jhal murhi in Bihar too? Just curious 😅

Also, might have to accompany grandparents to the hospital so I am unsure about how much time I will end up investing there.
Happy day fellas 😁

Sigma, Alpha male concepts are good for entertainment purpose. Maybe being a Sigma in real life is even better. However don't get lost towards toxic masculinity while aspiring to be a Sigma. Introspect what kind of person would you want to be and work towards it. People will keep on moving in and out of your life. It's you, who'll have to make peace with x,y,z number of people.
Loneliness is very subjective and very temporary feeling. One day you are surrounded by people and the next day you aren't. Strong determination, will power and some sort of 'false consciousness' / romanticism i to pull out of it.Finding Beauty in mundane things helps to generate false consciousness and boost our morale. I like@Morticia and@Rashmirathi's way of using sher-o-shayari helps romanticise our everyday mundane life. If one is at their all time low, listening to "Everyday Normal Guy 2 " can help as well.
Since Loneliness like any other feeling be it love, happiness etc are temporary feelings. At the moment I have temporary solutions to them.
Also out of context;
Dr Ambedkar quotes Emerson," Consistency is a virtue of an ass. No thinking human being can be tied down to a view once expressed in the name of consistency. More important than consistency is responsibility. A responsible person must learn to unlearn what he has learned."
Out of context 2" I would rather be a man of paradoxes than a man of prejudices "Rousseau
-- My life updates :
Convocation hai 15th Sept ko (Engineers day) Uske baad your buddy will go on a trip. 18th Tak i'll return and then dhoom dhoom padhai.
Hahah thanks buddy.
All the best for your convocation and trip!
@LetsGetThisBread Hum jeson k liye toh "Paw pals" hi kaafi hai loneliness door karne k liye 😅😅
Idhar udhar bana lete h aise dost 😂
Hahaha chalte firte.
How is pillu btw?
@Ghostwalker I've lost many friends during the course of preparation and because of not staying in touch, rather not having a phone and I know how lonely it gets. I guess most of us are lonely in this preparation and that's why we have this thread. To relate to each other and help each other out.
"Sigma" male ka toh nahi pata, male friends log ispe prakaash daalenge XD
But yes you have to accept the emotions, the turmoil and the loneliness this journey brings. Talk to someone, let it all out and then work towards your goal again. I know it is easier said than done but we all at least have one friend who is close to us. Rant to them, eat their head. I'm sure if they are close, they won't mind.
Trust me, if you let it out, half of your crisis is solved.
Friends nahi hain toh find someone on the thread. PM them. If they're willing to hear you out talk to them.
As alluring as solitude might sound or look to be, we as humans are social creatures and have a natural inclination towards socialising. So selective socialising karo. If you're in Delhi, try and meet people from this thread/community who are looking for that camaraderie. Maybe you end up finding gems. People who've been here have an amazing bond.@Rashmirathi @LetsGetThisBread would agree. You can surely find your own lot too!
Padhai pe gyaan nahi dungi because mujhse way worthy log hain yaha who can guide you regarding prep but I'll quote H.W. Longfellow in an attempt to boost your spirits:
"We have not wings, we cannot soar;But we have feet to scale and climbBy slow degrees, by more and more,The cloudy summits of our time."Thanks you 🙏
For your suggestion I will try my best to end this turmoil as soon as possible, so it will not hamper me in the future.
And your sense of humour is too good. On the thread. :p
@Ghostwalker you'll surely overcome it soon.
On the sense of humour part- ye genuine tha ya sarcastic? 😜

Tbh I get you and exactly what you’re going through. Losing old contacts is honestly part and parcel of this process, i doubt there’s anyone who doesn’t do so. But losing old friends is also part and parcel of life and not just unique to this process. You get a new job, you move cities, you get busy, make your life, and soon enough you’ll find that your other friends are doing the same as well and living their lives as well. And the next thing you know, you go from meeting every day, to meeting every few weeks, to months, to finally catching up on your 15 year school get together. The point is, everyone gets busy with their lives, no matter how much they promise that they will keep in touch. Just take a look at our own parents, how often do they “hang out” with their friends, do you think they didn’t promise their college friends that they would keep in touch, or write letters.
Losing friends, being alone is ultimately what everyone is destined for (no, I’m not being existential right now, just realistic… akele aaye h aur akele jayenge kind of truism). Having said that, we are never truly alone, look around you there’s so much potential for company at any given second, and minute of your existence. India m aabadi hi itni h ki log har jagah, chaaron taraf mil jayenge. Throughout this process, I felt I could no longer relate to my older friends, so much so that I too cut off from them, but I kept in touch with the ones that mattered. When I felt that I needed a group who could get the nuances of what I was going through, I came to Forum and honestly found some of the best people here. Dost banana h toh dost dhoondo, sirf preparation mates nahi. You’ll feel less lonely, if you make friends whom you intend to stay in touch with beyond this preparation as well, irrespective of whether you actually end up doing that or not.
Log aate jaate rahenge, but agar significant tareeke se engage karoge toh unki acchi yaadein aur di hui seekh reh jaayegi.
Thanks Bread🙏
You know what, you're helping me second time when I was in deep grief, pain and anger. I am always indebted to you. I don't know why but I found you sound like most matured and understandable person here.
And your line friend dhoondhna hai......
Goes straight to my mind and heart both at the same time.
And I tired my best to engage people in more professional way..
Thank you so much again dost.. ✨
Bread is actually one of the most amazing, wholesome people ever! 🙌
How is everyone? Preparation going good?How is everyone? Preparation going good?Whim and impulse have taken control of the ship. I tried to placate them by taking help of senecaji but to no avail. Like a bunch of stubborn bratty child, they even taunted me trying to bait me into giving them a good thrashing. But i realised the more i try to be controlling and overbearing the more their defiance grows. So, for now i am waiting it out, hoping they get tired and go to sleep ,like all children do, and i may have my peace of mind back and i may get down to do some serious work XD
How is it going over there 😅
Something similar going on with me. Even I am going with the flow. Being out at prelims is such a different feeling. I want to study alot, but somehow just can't.
Same here. Keeping myself distracted and busy. I can read anything but upsc notes. I feel like puking.
Please iss platform ko revive karo koi. 2 years pehle jaisa.
Revival ki ribbon cutting ceremony aap hi kar dijiye 😅

Couldn't even clear CAPF!
Never wanted the job though, but wanted to face UPSC interview before actual interview. Thik h, am meant for greater things I believe.
Ho jayega yaar. This reminds me of the story of the rabbit and the elephant. Rabbit and the elephant were expecting babies around the same time. Rabbit had many babies and made fun of the elephant which has a really long gestational period. But when the elephant baby was born and it grew up all the other animals looked at it in awe. Hum bhi haathi ka baccha paal rhe h, khargosh toh bohot milenge.
Haathi ke bacche paalte paalte main khud haathi kyun hota ja raha hu? 🥲🥲
Ab French Ligue/ World cup ki tayari chhod k UPSC prep me aoge toh thode ramifications are inevitable 👻

@Lawstice you even put filters in making frnds why not in giving exams ;p
Sabka favourite source of carb hota h bread. Bade strategically username chuna h maine 😂
Rice feels betrayed 🍚💔🥲
Notwithstanding the late Shubh Prabhat, here are the targets-
Also, it turned out to be one of the best movies I have watched in recent past.
Except for Telegram and MN Roy Notes,everything else done. Have shifted to Geography Books after completing the videos.
@Lawstice An anecdote to share- I was a decent bowler in gully cricket types. While I had the enthusiasm of Shoaib Akhtar, my muscles seldom used to betray me. I used to start a long runup to bowl at a speed less than that of Harbhajan Singh.Lol
@LetsGetThisBread Haathi ke gestation period se yaar aaya ki there was an option on same in 2020 Prelims.After GS1 Prelims, I was happy that I marked this right. Nikla toh phir bhi naahi. Forumites to@LetsGetThisBread be like-
@Morticia I am genetically skinny and I love this to quite an extent.

Public hangings were a family event in England in the mid centuries, with tickets being sold by hotel owners to provide the best view from their respective room windows or balconies. People would enjoy the hangings with ale and snacks and return to business post the deed was done.So what did the viewers wake up with the next day? [best/correct answer wins a trip to swarg*]They woke up w Shinigami ?
Nahi yaar, Japan me thodi the wo :P
They woke up with a "HANGover" 😝
[Bracing myself for the flying tomatoes and slow claps]
Hello folks ! Loving the energy of this place :) Needed some advice regarding CA - I've been 70% regular in reading the newspaper since May but haven't done anything else beside that, took up monthly magazines recently. I've started note making of important stuff but what do I do about the months that have gone by ? And what should I take care of hereon regarding CA ? Studying for CA confuses me very often about how exactly should I proceed with it. Duvidha ka hal bata do please.
@LetsGetThisBread @Naadan_Parinda @mightyraju @Morticia and all others who's usernames I can't remember atm.
Many people haven't even read newspapers and still succeeded so don't worry about that but try and be regular with it. I'm not advising not reading it.
I personally don't make newspaper notes, I abhor making notes! So monthly magazines are my resort.
Been pretty inconsistent with CA myself but I'm covering the backlog with monthlies.
You can do the same. Try and lay more focus on news regarding topics that are important wrt the syllabus like WTO, PDS, Governor etc.
Hope it helps! 💜

Got up late. Then watched House of Dragons.
Earlier I used to be like “Zindagi ho to aisi ho… warna zinda to…” (Guddu pandit kahin)
I’d rather want to be free folk. The only wish is to have the name to family and kins. Because they have invested in me and look up to me.
The politics to power becomes fierce because of the rule that Winner takes it all. There should rather be a proportional representation.
Today’s targets:
- Newspaper
- Modern history (I’ll try to finish it by today)
- CA
- Test
Completed all except the test. Ab Test ko halt hi karte hain. Kyun rojana target de ke khud ko embarrass karna.
Modern taking more time than it should. I was like this frustrated in reading only 18 pages of my notes:
Target for this week is to complete the revision of all subjects. Then only mock test.
@Morticia same as@Aazaad I also faced no problem in CA class.
@LetsGetThisBread is the professor? Where’s the next heist?
Gute Nacht
Meri abhi bhi nahi chal rahi hain 😑

Starting out a bit late. The targets for today-
Shubh Prabhat doston!
Spent almost the whole day in college,beginning with admission form hassles and ending with boring Drafting class. Agin did nothing beyond newspaper.
I have time till 3 pm tomorrow. Will try to cover what I committed for today.
I need to reinforce the following- MightyyyyRajuuu jaldi kar.
@Morticia Tbh, I was about to enquire about this chaand.
@Pepethefrog Sab khairiat se dost?
@Lawstice Papers going to JNU under this sarkar. Lol. Modiji-Lal maane khatra. Another lol.
@Hi______ You can try if they are offering something like this bhai. But going by their track record, I suspect them to be offering anything meaningful. I toh doubt ki they will kidnap aspirants and ask for ransom from parents.
Shubh Ratri doston!
I'm aware of how much you love his rants :P
Also look what I came across,
"Mighty Raju has come up with more super human powers this time. He received his super powers from the compound named Neutrino, that his mother had mistakenly consumed in her prenatal state. Mighty Raju risks his own safety and fights with all sort of evil powers to rescue the people of Aryaman Nagar. He never gives up and is always determined to win over wicked people . Catch up with Mighty Raju"

I've never seen a single episode of this cartoon. The only knowledge I have of it is via my young cousins.
"Wait a minute!"
Raju is not with chutki and has a new girl named Julie?

@Lawstice Papers going to JNU under this sarkar. Lol. Modiji-Lal maane khatra. Another lol.
@Hi______ You can try if they are offering something like this bhai. But going by their track record, I suspect them to be offering anything meaningful. I toh doubt ki they will kidnap aspirants and ask for ransom from parents.
Shubh Ratri doston!
I'm aware of how much you love his rants :P
Also look what I came across,
"Mighty Raju has come up with more super human powers this time. He received his super powers from the compound named Neutrino, that his mother had mistakenly consumed in her prenatal state. Mighty Raju risks his own safety and fights with all sort of evil powers to rescue the people of Aryaman Nagar. He never gives up and is always determined to win over wicked people . Catch up with Mighty Raju"
Meanwhile mighty Raju busy with Julie :p
@mightyraju Why you no tell me about neutrino or julie? 🥲😢
@Morticia @Rashmirathi Gimme some material to Simp upon yaarr, varna ShayariSimp bina shayari sune hi sojaega.
Observation about study schedule ->reach my peak before lunch 5 hours tak pull hojaty hai.
After lunch everything slows down. Mostly would go to library post lunch. Nine Nine Noight Noight.
@Rashmirathi has been MIA. His turn! He's anyway a far better repository!
Starting out a bit late. The targets for today-

Raju is not with chutki and has a new girl named Julie?
That's interesting@THE_MECHANIC
The Raju you are talking is with chota bheem named cartoon then they later started new cartoon named mighty Raju which has different story
Vse chutki to bheem k sath thi na Raju to side character tha 🙈🙈
Bass ispe ab GS 3 me question aajae kuch toh I can utilise this knowledge!
Thanks yaar! 😅
(P.S. Haan I had a doubt ki Chutki was Bheem's chick but I guess I got confused via the memes)

Henlo frems I see I have been missed. Do din koi padhai nhi ki… aise hi 😬 yeh bhi ek ajeeb hi guilty pleasure hota h jiska beech beech m anand lena chahiye. My college classes have started and agle Tuesday se I’ll be teaching kids English in some government school… yeh mat pucho kahan, kyunki mujhe bhi nahi pata abhi tak, you’ll have to take that burning curiosity with you to your grave only… or at least till the time I get allotted a school. Lesson plans are a pain in the neck, literally soch soch ke stress pains ho gye h. Also it made me realise just how little thought my teachers actually put into teaching in my school. Ab dimag lagaake speaking activities banane pad rahe h toh dimag ka dahi ho chuka h… yeh chemical reaction kyun nahi sikhate school m kabhi?
In other news, if anyone has any ideas about tehat they wished their English teacher would make them do in the class, please iss thread ko spam karna. Also any ideas on how to deal with adolescent bacche bhi bata dena agar kisi ne baacha dekha ho toh. Maine sirf lab m dekhe h unhe 🙃
Adolescent bacha logs k liye toh tumhara Sass hi kaafi hai! XD

Make them practice phonetics well. Isi me kuch classes nikal jaengi. Use of tongue, teeth, glottis, palate seems to intrigue even the teens, unless they are a different breed now.
Aur kuch nahi toh, they laugh looking at the teacher make those faces :P (sorry ma'am 🙉)

can anyone give a printer recommendation ? Thinking of getting one as I'm always studying on screen and it seems mere chashme ka power badh jayega
I'm unaware about your budget but I'd suggest you to look up for inktank printers in whatever range that suits you. Those are relatively compact and versatile in comparison to laserjet printers and better ROI on print cost in comparison to inkjet printers.
Starting out late. Here are the tasks-
@LetsGetThisBread I used to get hit regularly. In my growing up years, I used to complain to my sister and she used to be my arguing counsel before such teachers. Haha
Shubh Prabhat doston!
Tough Tough day. My mind is wandering like hell. With eyes on the book and mind elsewhere, it seems like a forced torture on mind. So in the meantime, I am devoting my time to prepare a research paper for my Moot Court class, which I am supposed to submit this Friday. Kya pta dimaag ke ghode bhi thikane lag jay iss bahane.
All the best :P
Can anyone suggest alternatives for coffee or tea?
@Lawstice any sattvik alternative which you take??

@DancingMaster समुंदर्मंथन में निकली थी क्या
Usiko toh leke ghor yudh hua tha.
Done with morning one and half hour. More to go. Time to grind. Wish I could listen my favourite songs w someone and vibe. Wish I could tell them why I like this song and then I really wish I we'll sing those songs together.
It hurts when you no longer have that someone. Slowly you stop listening to your favourite music, slowly you stop doing things that you enjoy because now those things remind you of that someone. You stop singing your favourite song, you stop watching your favourite show, you try to explore new things which may not necessary give you happiness.
Well exploring new things has it's pros and cons. I would want to explore new things with a positive and empty mind space. Which I don't think is possible for me right now. Or I would want to explore new things with people I feel comfortable with.
Am I a hopeless romantic ? Am I too emotional ? yadda yada. Do I overshare to random new people? YUP. Do they lose interest in me after I overshare ? YES. Why so though ? because I'm not mysterious anymore and people naturally curious about things. Once things become clear people aren't interested no more (':

Don't stop doing things that make you happy. Accept and be happy that they were a part of it once but also realize why they ain't a part of it now.

@Rashmirathi @Morticia y'all know Ismat Chugtai?
http://inet.vidyasagar.ac.in:8080/jspui/bitstream/123456789/5425/1/10_Koyel%20Chanda.pdf This paper deals with application of Devi- Dasi dichotomy theory in a story of Ismat Chugtai.
Some important lines which may not need context ->
The ‘dasi’ role allows her to change masters if the living gets tough whereas the role of a ‘devi’ restricts her life and her movements. Both the roles have a downside for women. However it is to be borne in minds that both these roles are constructed keeping male interests and desires in mind. So it is futile to expect that these roles can ever allow women to explore her potentialities as well as her freedom. What emerges from the text is the ambivalence of the position of Indian women.
Ji, I am aware about her. Would give this a read. Thanks for sharing!
@Tata I'm above break up and shizz. Being alone without friends and people is very taxing. And no no no no no, do not make this tinder for aspirants.
@Morticia healing is never a linear process man. Sharing helps for me though.
@D503 Are you an Otaku as well ? And Kahan dude? Mainstream anime is hero worshiped for SUPER LIVELY WARM CHAACTERS.
@Rashmirathi Dude your poems are always awesome. Where were you )':: missed you
I'm not advocating linearity bro; my point was solely that you shouldn't give up on anything that makes you happy or helps you overcome the grief; as you said regarding sharing 🤗
Hello lovely people. Kya haal hain sabke? Great to see new faces(although virtual) here.
So my exams got over. Ab thoda free baithe hain. I need your suggestions on the books you guys are reading (non UPSC ofcourse). Stories, poetries, novels whatever you like. You may also share your reasons for your liking bas spoilers mat de dena.
Also there was an active thread here in which people used to share books they have read and impt pages of those books. I am not able to find that. Can anyone share its link?
Thank you in advance.
Hello dost. How are you? How did the exams go?
Hello frens aaj I’m back-ish with targets for 27.9.22. Do din padhane ke gham m guzare h.
Jun- 19- 24 backlog
Environment
PSIR- poverty
Govt boys school mila h, woh bhi Hindi medium. Pata nhi kis janam ka paap mit rha h ab. Aaj pehla din tha toh padhana nhi pada but I’m already drained 😂 I stopped two boys who picked up one of their classmates and were pretending to throw him from the railing. I saw teachers hitting the kids mercilessly. In fact ek ki aankh m bhi chot lagi thi maarne ke wajah se. Library ke naam pe ek kamre m 4 shelves h jinpe taala laga hua h. Teachers come and go as they please, as long as syllabus pura ho jaye kisi ko koi farak nahi padta. Will keep updating as I keep teaching. I’m sure kuch na kuch interesting dekhne ko milega… after all boys school m PGT English banke jaa rhe h.

Hello everyone, I'm a new addition to the forum community. Basically joined here cause I have been feeling lonely in this marathon journey and despite being in college, i don't have peers around me who are preparing for the same. So I am hoping I'll meet some like minded people here :)
Ps- does anyone know how the coaching of vision ias and sleepy classes are? It'd be of great help
Welcome aboard!
Hope you overcome your loneliness here soon😁
Also sorry no idea regarding the coaching.

The girl who used to sit adjacent to me used to nudge me every now and then...I started moving away from my seat when she asked anything...I too am a nibba in UPSC.....she then started asking CSAT....she was also very touchy to me whenever she met outside the library...my intuition says she had a crush on me. But her creepy behavior irritated me :(
Yayy! "Stud boy!"
I know man. Also being polite in such circumstances aggravates their behaviour and your irritation.

Dudee I have joined gym too! But mine's in my society only, I workout with Aunties and one cute lil guy. It's fun.
Getting chills from imagining your death stare, I for sure wouldn't dare to approach you if I ever happen to see you in real life.
Uda lo mazak 😆
Hahaha aunties can be fun or a nightmare. Glad they are fun in your case.
Hey guys, after a long and truly tiring and frustrating day, I wanted nothing more than to just come back to my beloved prep. So I did the most low key thing, read the paper and catch up on newspaper backlog. I didn’t have it in me to do anything more. Aaj I realised I will most likely put my kid up for adoption somewhere within a year of trying to raise it.@mightyraju i had to literally use the “eyes close and head down” till 40 trick
Huge respect for teachers!! Cool matzuzaka ma'am you are.
I’m pretty sure this school will drive me towards daytime drinking as suggested by my dear friend@HeNeArKr 😂
Only jal please!

@LetsGetThisBread Aww!I feel for your troubles yaar.

Those tiny fingers which hold your finger/s in their fragile palms. Also,the joy one gets by plucking their scalp.Lol.I am toh bda wala babysitter.So, mujhe de dio adoption ke liye.

Those tiny fingers which hold your finger/s in their fragile palms. Also,the joy one gets by plucking their scalp.Lol.I am toh bda wala babysitter.So, mujhe de dio adoption ke liye.
@Tata Bhai,@Lawstice jal rha hai aapse.
@Morticia Ask him/her for mass gainer suggestions. That will be helpful for some souls here.

@LetsGetThisBread Haha. Now as a next logical step, choose your favourite student as every teacher does.
I have to find something to eat since its month end and the usual tiffin service is off.
Shubh Sandhya doston!
As the tiffin service is off, so I was eating ice cream, but I chose a quite bad place for sitting and I ended up having a 2 hour+ debate/argument with a stranger (he interrupted me while I was talking to my friends, so the debate was uninvited), mostly related to Indian policymaking, society, religion, education, judiciary and constitution.
can't express my views here cos I'll be cancelled by the whole forum community.
The lesson of the day: Stop eating ice creams.
I would have walked off making faces had some stranger interrupted me 😂
Kudos to you for having a debate, that too a long one!
Also, I've only heard@mightyraju talk about fiery political debates happening here. I also want to be a part of the "popcorn party"; please rant na Pepe😝
As people were itching for political content here it is -+ You asked for it -- though scope for ladai isnless as no political party or ideology was harmed during the ranting of the following opinion -
Dramatic turn of events at the omaxe society. What's Astonishing is the state itself becoming an instrument of people's base emotions. Rather than emerging as the sane voice that resolves conflicts in a manner that inspires trust and elevates people to a higher moral plane , it is giving birth to mutual hatred and rancor. First, shrikant's house is bulldozed and people of the omaxe society cheer and hail the government. This bulldozing circus infuriates tyagi community which gives an ultimatum to the govt to bulldoze other illegal structures in the society or be ready to face the ire of community. The hapless administration , which has by now become an accomplice in barbarian justice , rushes in bulldozers once again to demolish structures in omaxe. This time it's the turn for the tyagi community to cheer and omaxe society members' turn to cry. What a sadist society it must be to revel in such barbarianism. It seems The ideal of fraternity in the preamble of the constitution has not taken roots even when we are celebrating 75th year of independence. Another controversial bulldozing event took place amid cheering at a crime scene in uttarakhand. One can't find any parallels for such stupidity anywhere in the world. One wonders how such precedences help the cause of justice...how does it make women safe at workplace, how does it address the difficult questions that stare us at the face in wake of a rising graph of crime against women. Maybe , it's the unwillingness to find lasting solutions that prompts govts to take the easy and high optics route of bulldozer justice.
If that's the kind of justice that can be expected from a modern state in 21st century, why malign the khap panchayats at all. To me the difference between the state and khaps is indistinguishable as the things stand.
I so agree with you on this. Retributive justice is not what we signed up for after 75 years of independence.
Also, why just blame political parties/ruling governments? They've always been more motivated by the vote bank than finding long lasting solutions.
Citizens are not any better. Where's the so called "scientific temper" we were to develop?
Even well educated fellas rejoice at the bulldozer politics in the same way as a not so literate man would. 😶
Btw ShayariSimp is v happy today. Will tell an interesting incident post my last dancin session.Surat station के बाहर ठंडी bench थी, चाय गरम थी
बगल में एक ताऊ के हाथ में बीड़ी थी जो लगभग ख़तम थी
मैंने बस दो-चार चुस्कियाँ ली थी कि उतने में ताऊ ने दूसरी सुलगा ली थी
पहली को फ़ेंका ज़मीन पर और जूती से कुचल दिया
मुझे जाने क्यूँ तेरी याद आई, मैं उठा और चल दिया
Han Mai chal diya....aur gaya Gym. People idolise Kabir Singh but we don't. We Went to gym for a brief refreshment from our usual dancing sessions. I mean 30 mins of workout really boosts up our productivity right? With the mindset of doing cardio today I entered gym only to find out that the usual aunties were wearing Sarees today. Aunties were looking Apsaras in their Green Sarees. Well, Navratre has it's pros and cons and who would have thought, one of the blessing of navratre was Dancinmaster dancing with em Apsaras in the GYM. I Did do Cardio today just the different kind, wink wink.
One of the Apsara had cool tattoos, while the other had highlighted her hair. It was fun to ball dance with them and record our videos on their SNAPCHAT. They are very cool and happy and warm. So ya@Tata not calling them auntie helps (':
I did dance for 600 mins today (': still a lot to do and cover and learn. First half of the day was okaish cause :अक्सर, मरे हुए लोग बीच - बीच में जिंदा होने का नाटक करते रहते हैं!: gave me BT. But then, the day grew on me. Slowly and steadily I did dance for 600 mins which honestly seemed difficult today. Yahan ki mehfil helped boost my juices today, Ig im really a ShayariSimp.

@Morticia tbh we all have our base instincts like dark humour and so on. Expecting the masses literate & illiterate too live virtuously is expecting too much. Virtue is a kingly trait rare to find it among the masses.
Fair enough.
I am not advocating being too virtous per se. Rationality can sure be incorporated at an individual level by conscious efforts though.
@Morticia tbh we all have our base instincts like dark humour and so on. Expecting the masses literate & illiterate too live virtuously is expecting too much. Virtue is a kingly trait rare to find it among the masses.
Its not about turning the society into a utopian ramrajya. That's not practical.in real world Vices and virtues coexist with each other. The point is that the conduct of state does have a huge influence on the masses. Why has there been a sudden spurt in demand for bulldozer action all around the country? Because the state gave this idea that bulldozing can also be a way to seek justice. In the battlefield when Arjun is hesitant in attacking his kins Krishna reminds him that he is not fighting the war in individual capacity but as a king. His conduct will be watched over by the masses and if he fails to uphold dharma ( moral order) then it will set a bad precedent. Likewise Plato says that state is individual writ large. As state becomes perverted so does the society. Hence the need for the state and those holding important positions in the state to uphold highest values. Offcourse we need rods at times , but the use of the rod is not to be done for its own sake , it has to be done for some higher purpose. even Manu who considers Danda/rod as a discipliner, warns king against its reckless use as it brings ruin to the king.
I know realists and cynics tend to scoff at at any talk of values and morality, but the fact remains we all need someone in our lives who inspires us to be righteous , to be a better human being. We all need a bUddha , a Gandhi, a rama in our lives to teach us about the superiority of non violence over violence, of good over evil.
Sounds like a lot of rhetoric 😆 but abhi ye hee aaya dimag me
It's a vicious loop of state's action fuelling the adrenaline of the masses and the masses rejoicing giving sanction to the government to carry forward the action.

@mightyraju my favourite students are the ones who put in effort, so as of now the entire class is my favourite.
P.S: starting anew layout for my digital planner gives so much satisfaction. It’s raspberry pink flowers in case anyone was wondering. 🙃
@LetsGetThisBread Please tell me more about your planner because I really need one. Excel sheets aren't helpling😅
I wanted to say, I'm team popcorn too. 🍿👀🍿
Me too@LetsGetThisBread 😬
So I have wasted a day giving a send off to my dear-est friend today.I always expected@D503 to light the fireworks. Now I have an opinion and that isn't a favourite amongst guys studying for an exam that is oriented towards Humanities.
So, I was being taught Hohfeld's theory by my favourite ma'am(Anju Vali Tikoo ma'am). So ma'am did posit a question before all of us in the due course of teaching the topic. The question was-What came first, Claims or Power?
She did explain the query superlatively. But, I would try to introduce that aspect in the debate sparked by my bhai@D503.So, Tyagis tried to bully and so did all the nincompoops who don't think twice before challenging the authority of the State.
And, I am super satisfied that State is being Retributive when its authority is jeopardised. State can reform what can be moderated. But, who will moderate the devilish tendencies of individuals trying to push girls into flesh trade. Or, for that matter trying to illegally grab properties and if restrained, then resorting to bullying.
Bulldozers aren't always the solution but they do send a message and a relevant one. The message that the State ain't a Soft State anymore. Furthermore, bulldozing ain't a lasting solution and I agree here. But, what it leads to is a general impression of state coming after you, for the grave wrongs you commit. This consequentially leads to fear and helps in establishing rule of law. Imagine raping a girl and a reformative system rewarding one with life skill courses in jail.
Also, the formation of governments is duly in the hands of the people of the country. And, in the process, they are entitled to Administraive Discretion, where bullying the untamed is a good option in some instances.
To conclude from where I started, there ain't any Claims sans Power. What we as citizens will demand if the idea of an imposing state itself is watered down.
@LetsGetThisBread Jaise teacher, vaise unke bacche.
Guys idhar virtuous batein kar rahi hai ye@Morticia . Vaise she called me Perk for being as thin as that wafer cum chocolate is.
@Pepethefrog Tumhe kyon cancel karna.Especially, after thatblife saving suggestion of using less amount of detergent
Ab toh@nerdfighter bhi aa gya. Tum kaha ho@Radhika25A. Will you gatecrash 2024 ka thread?
Vaise, welcome@nerdfighter bro. I also kinda missed you. I contemplated asking for your continued absence but then backed off.

Completely agree with punishing wrong doers with an iron hand. Saudi, Taliban afghanistan, Iran have very low crime rates so the use of brutal force is certainly a deterence .

Lessons from SSB.
(Apologies for the length it is going to have.)
Recently, I attended the Air Force Selection Board at Dehradun. (AFSB/SSB is a five days procedure they have for every Defence exam that lands you onto a commissioned post- AFCAT/NDA/CDS etc). This one brought me to some realisations.
I don't know if it was the sedentary upsc prep or the lockdown (that started in 4th sem of college and didn't end until five days ago) or my introversion that made me awkward, really awkward. I could sense that I wasn't mindful, I said and did stupid things, and my thought process was really slow.
Perhaps it was a mix of all three.
In physical tasks I was weak and scared. The interview (that was mostly personal- about background, family, friends etc) made me feel vulnerable, exposed. The only thing I perhaps enjoyed were the psych tests (in which all you need to do is 'write' responses- to pictures, words and situations). I was suspicious of my roommates and found hard to mix with them.
But SSB had more lessons than just these. As I sensed these problems, my roommates guided me through. They were welcoming despite the competition. I never initiated any conversations, but well, they did. They encouraged me to perform well- 7 complete strangers I was to be with for less than a week.
My lesson is that most people have good hearts after all. That life isn't supposed to be as serious as we think it should. That being social indeed makes you a little more confident, while introversion a little less. That not all things need to be thought before being acted upon. That when it comes to health- one cannot lessen the importance of either physical or mental health; they are both very important and they both supplement each other.
I have decided to make a few small (but determined) changes, and recording them as little notes to self here-
1. Initiate conversations. With old friends, with new people. You need them as much as it is your responsibility to be when they need you.
2. Exercise. Daily.
3. Do some things without thinking. Regularly. (Things like replying to any random comment anywhere, playing with your brother or simply letting people around you know that you're hurt or angry when you are that.)
4. Love the world, with the things, the people, the many flaws of it. Go out every two weeks (unlike the present once in months) and get a better perspective (and personality).
Maybe it sounds all too idealistic. But I have seen that whenever I realise something in a trip to some other place, it stays with me. Three years ago I felt I needed spirituality and that is the thing that has stayed most consistently. I am not always focused, and not always positive either, but one little part of my day is always dedicated to it.
Forum, just like the SSB, has good people too. And through this post, I thank you guys- for all the bubbly, relatable conversations- and I thank them, for the support.
This is so wholesome to read!
I hope you had a great experience at the SSB. It is a once in a lifetime experience for many.
* "My lesson is that most people have good hearts after all." - I've been treading this path for long now and can definitely concur; although you do get disappointed many a times but that doesn't mean you stop believing in the goods of people.
As the famous saying goes, "To err is human"
* Talking about the 7 strangers who helped and guided you through; that is how the forces work, aint it? Buddies and comrades maintaining their camaraderie!
*As for the goals you've penned down, even a percent in that direction is enough to manifest cascading changes. Really hope you keep working in that direction.
Signing off wishing on a more transparent, more compassionate and a more loving world (with reduced suspicions 😅)

Hi peeps,
A question to those who have cleared prelims before. What's the optimum number of mocks to give?
40-50 for me !
I've read comments calling you the "prelims king' or something on those lines; on some thread earlier. Yahan bhi thodi tricks, gyaan and way out arjit kijiye please 🙊

Hi friends,
So I have decided to move on from upsc preparation. It was impacting my health - mental and physical.
I have attempts and age left but I do not know if/when I will come back to chase this goal again. May be someday /may be never.
Thanks everyone for your kind suggestions and tips which you gave whenever I needed help.
It is difficult to stop thinking about something you have thought about and immersed yourself in hardwork for years.
On a side note : I think I can write a post/something on " What not to do for upsc". But then again who will read? And Why to scratch my old wounds and suffer pain again? Nevermind.
May everyone get fruits of their hardwork.
(っ⌒‿⌒)っ
Nothing over your mental sanity@Brave.
What is the point of a "burning desire" if it is not setting you ablaze but scorching you.
You're truly brave to take a step forward towards moving on. To make a comeback or not surely solely lies in your hands but you know you'll always have a community to lean upon. :)
More power to you Buddy.
Best wishes for whatever you pursue ahead!

Back on forum...@Lawstice reminded me today that forum exists, I was too much into my convocation, last week was just amazing, super amazing...met my buddies roamed around the beautiful campus all the time...laughed all aloud....unapologetically used all the vulgar slangs common in college, felt the peer pressure and relived all the moments in the city which I call home 2.0!
Back on studies will use YPT regularly now to track my progress and see if I am really studying or not....acha can we access YPT on laptop anyone?
@Tata if your laptop allows app download, then yes.
Fun fact: it’s really easy for teachers to figure out who’s about to cheat because they always look at you and then hunker down a bit. Kids think we don’t see them and that they’re being really clever when they get away with cheating, little do they realise whatever little they are able to achieve in terms of “collaborative assessment” is because we turn a blind eye. I wonder if my teacher ever saw me exchange sheets in school and then decided to turn a blind eye to it 😅
@LetsGetThisBread I guess I had "the look" even when I wasn't cheating which explains why teachers used to stand next to me in exam hall and kept on looking at whatever I was writing. 🥲

It's very hard to believe that you aren't a good cheater.
Kis basis pe hain ye assumptions? 🤣

Teachers looking at my answer sheet would make me hell lot of anxious. Especially math teachers invigilating in your math exams is a whole other level - nightmare.
Been there 🥲
@LetsGetThisBread I never cheated. Mujhe pta hi nahi vo kya hoti hai. Cheating karni bhi nahi chahiye. I am all for honesty!
On an anecdotal front,there has not been a single school and college exam, where I didn't cheat except for the exams I gave this semester! Warna toh cardboard ke peeche light pencil par likh kar jaata tha.
I was half way through and about to write "Khuda ka khauf karo kuch, kitna jhoot bologe" 🤣 (well I still did)
Had a decent day after 3-4 days(seasonal flu).

Hi friend! Schedule is so sporadic it feels futile to post till the time my school related ordeals are over. Will be back in January- February regularly. Uske baad waise bhi kamar kasne ka time aa hi jayega 😬
Can completely relate with sporadic schedule thingy even though i don't have any school related work or anything else to do. Maybe it's the winter inertia XD
Winter inertia is real! Especially if you have a sunny terrace to laze on 😬

पूरे की ख्वाहिश में ये इंसान बहुत कुछ खोता है,
भूल जात है कि आधा चाँद भी खूबसूरत होता है।
I had no exams@TomiokaGiyu .This@Avixiva misguided you. I had to attend a marriage ceremony of someone very close and dear to me.
@Ghostwalker Mera Baath tang hai issme bhai.
Kal se will be posting targets again.

Lo fir arz kiya h -
शोला था जल-बुझा हूँ हवायें मुझे न दो
मैं कब का जा चुका हूँ सदायें मुझे न दो
जो ज़हर पी चुका हूँ तुम्हीं ने मुझे दिया
अब तुम तो ज़िन्दगी की दुआयें मुझे न दो
Aise toxic logon se door raha karo tum 😝

Pahochne do tabhi pata lagega. 😂
Abhi toh pahochne ka P aur prelims P tak naa reach hota.
Yar I am stuck with the backlogs of the mgp tests ,How to complete this with Sfg tests .
koi batao?
Bhai mera focus sirf IFoS (Prelims cutoff and 2 optional) par hi hai. Best advice @DancingMaster hi denge....I think he is also enrolled in GSAP, so he knows best.
Konse 2 hain?
Been busy lately. Recently got to know that the place I go to, ain't technically a library. Asha hai ki app abhi bhi SFG mai top kar rahe hain. Hamari naiyan toh doob rahy hai. PT ig feb end- mid march release hote hai?
Thinking of talking to a mentor now, let's see.
@Morticia toh bas bahana dhundti hai iOS flex karne ka xD fir badme comments delete karthy ho tum xD
Bhaiya, iOS hai bhi nahi mujhpe so please! 😂😂😂
Hi bhai. I am just doing good. Have just shifted to a newer place after my college exams culminated on 17th. I have resttarted reading UPSC ka stuff since yesterday. Shayaad targets post karu kal se kyunki I just joined a reading room today.
Glad to know. You have a state PSC coming, right? You earlier said about getting handwritten notes for the same.
Yup,bhai. I have State Mains from Feb 20. As far as notes are concerned,I have them for decent portions, except GS4 and Art-Culture part of GS1.
Sir, strategy share krdo isko and pre ko sath me tackle karni ki. 🥲

bhaisahab kyun gareeb aadmi ka mazaak uda rahi ho!
Nahi sir genuinely asking.
I'll let u know what happened again!!!! 😓😓
@TomiokaGiyu was the first one easier?
Yes
oh... maybe my guesses worked today then ? not that I scored 110+ but, there was a substantial increase in my score within the two tests. Scored around 75 in first and today got 94.67.. Aaraam se analyse karunga my guess work. Pre is really a lucky draw man,
Anyway the reason I came here was to FANBOY over LADY GAGA. SHE"S AN ICON.@Morticia Wednesday's famous song is sung by her. Muje ajj samja. I LOVE GAGA, GRANDE and JENIFER LAWRENCE. EMLIA Clarke bhi awesome only.
Please donn GAGA looks someday 😌
@mightyraju @Morticia All best for your Mains!
I'll be active over here now, till pre.
Got an IIM interview on 24th of feb, that'll be my first ever formal interview. Getting chills already.
Ajao@TomiokaGiyu will ace pre noww.
You remembered 🥲
Thank you! 💜
All the best for your interview! Ace it! :D

(P. S. Thank you, though 😢)
For the last week, I have been panicking A LOT, and everyday I make new 7 day plans, and then think ki this is not a good plan, and make another.
So iss week ka plan:
1) Follow SFG 1st priority (Polity revision complete)2) Complete Ancient / Medieval history revision (TN + NCERT)
3) Give one FLT Tues or Wednesday, and SFG simulator Sunday
I'll post my targets here for this week (please nudge me if I don't post, or deviate from my plan).
Today:
1) Revise executive + make brief notes +(revise brief notes of Legislature)2) Chapter 1-3 of TN NCERT revise + half 6th NCERT + 1,3,4 12th NCERT + relevant portion of Singhania (just read casually)
3) Newspaper
4) Stare at UP, Bihar, Jharkhand map for 45 minutes
@Morticia @mightyraju I hope your mains went well :D (sorry for asking late)
@DancingMaster Seeing your daily targets is very motivating bhai
Thanks for asking 😊😊
As@mightyraju says, "Bhagwanji ki marzi" hai ab toh, baki we've done our work. 😅
Any inputs/suggestions on how to minimize the chances of choosing the wrong option when you're left to choose b/w two of the most probable ones?Here are some tips to help you:
1.Re-read the question: Sometimes, we may have misunderstood the question, so it's always helpful to read the question again and make sure you understand it correctly.
Eliminate the obvious wrong answer: Take a look at the options and eliminate any that you know are incorrect. This will reduce your choices and make it easier for you to decide between the remaining options.
2.Use logical reasoning: Use your logical reasoning skills to determine which option is more likely to be correct based on the context of the question.
3.Use prior knowledge: If you have prior knowledge about the subject, use it to help you decide which option is correct.
4.Use the process of elimination: If you are still unsure, use the process of elimination. Eliminate options that you know are wrong until you are left with only one option.5.Don't overthink: Sometimes, we tend to overthink and second-guess ourselves, which can lead to making the wrong choice. Trust your instincts and go with your gut feeling.
5th one is more important..
Hope it helps..
Say thanks to me with meme☺️

Hi bhai.I am doing good. Unconventional sa hi approach I can afford with less time at disposals focusing on solving Workbooks+ will do FLTs in the last 30 days or so.
Also,I have always felt some differences between Mocks and actual Prelims(could be quite wrong)-
Elimination- Easier in Actual Prelims vis a vis Mocks.
Make or break Sections- Those that have easier questions. Polity and Economics(maybe, Geography in the past 1-2 years) decides if one clears or not.
Tricks and all- Certainly work in actual prelims, if not that much in mocks. Not every answer turns out to be right but the net result is positive.
somehow, I have ended up with the opposite conclusion!
I feel UPSC has a set/limited number of questions, in which elimination can be used, rest are usually questions to be attempted through lateral thinking, an educated guess, intuition and all. Overall elimination statements are less, I think.
I feel mock tests give you a wider scope to use elimination strategies, of course there are certain mock tests which are VERY difficult, ignoring them and looking at the average mock paper, there seems to be more options and chances given to eliminate and to reach the actual answer.
Maybe for UPSC, there is more focus on conceptual clarity, which reduces the elimination chances and now with the pairing questions, they are on the path of eliminating the elimination!
Personally, I love the elimination questions, so much joy when just by striking one statement out, a complex question can be solved easily!
Could be a thing. I am, however ,not taking into account the 'number of elimination based questions'.They could be fewer in number vis a vis mocks.In my experience , even if I could eliminate one statement, the job was almost done for a good number of question. Also,in our angst against the commission, we generally cite that all our guesses went wrong. I believe this is half the picture. Actually,we get a good deal of them right based on our intuition and aaj kucch toofani karte hai spirit.
Vaise,this one statement/two statements/... wali innovation on the part of commission is scary.I dread a situation if they include such options in 60-70 questions !
Manhoos baatein hi karna humesha!!!

@Steph_Curry What'd be your 2 cents regarding someone who is planning to appear for ifos only and has to start from scratch?
Also is geology a manageable subject?

Hello!
A senior Apoorv Dixit did this last year and got AIR 11 in IFoS. It is very manageable.
I am assuming that 1 optional is forestry. If the other optional is not common with CSE, geology is the most preferred one! You can take help of any classes/ Youtube videos for preparing Geology along with the standard textbooks like Bangar.
The preparation has to be in 2 dimensions1. Prelims- Getting a score at par with IFoS cutoff
2. Covering both the optionals holsitically to get an advantage there
For that, you can use the next 5 months of 2023 to finish 1 optional in totality and 60-70% of the other one. Both optional can also be done entirely if you plan well. After that, prelims should be focussed upon! Then back to IFoS mains after the prelims.
Refer to Apoorv Dixit bhaiya's notes both for Forestry and Geology. It is available on his telegram channel.
All the best :)
Thank you 😊
Any topper notes suggestions for forestry? (including yours 😅)
I referred to Apoorv Dixit's notes only! Made my own short notes from there and some online sources/ std books. I only had 20-25 days to prepare for each of the optionals! I'll share my forestry/ geology short notes on my telegram channel here.
Thanks!
