Mains 2019 Preparation and Discussion Thread

@bevancomPartially agree. Some people overdo answer writing and test series. Nevertheless test series does have its uses. I wrote vision abhyas and in the 1st test of Paper 1 I was able to write only 16 answers. Had I written the first test in exam hall itself I would've left atleast 3 questions per paper. What test series and questions do is that they activate the "browsing mode" in your brain which can help one in retrieving information faster. This immensely helps in increasing speed. But yes, I also believe 10 tests are sufficient.

Haha, bahut tharki log hain telegram pe.
Some people have complained about it earlier as well.

@K_9didn't write even a single answer.
Wrote 1st answer on 21 september 9 am still managed to do all questions in all papers

@bevancomEverybody's strategy is different.Jisko jo suite kare wo karo.Kisi ko copy mat karo.Cheers..

@Asli_hai_sabYeah plan to do masters and PhD once this upsc phase gets over..

@bevancomYou made notes topic Wise or added as you read more with time ??

@bevancomstop fooling people, no-one can do that in a year or maybe 2 years.

@AllMightQuestion and answer based for each topic.Left some space at end of each answer to accommodate for things.
Picked up a topic and found out all the sources where its given. Suppose its in book 1 chapter 2,book7 chapter 9 and book 9 chapter 15.Read all 3 and underlined impt stuff in each.Suppose after book1,book3 has to be referred then would write refer to book 3 at end of paragraph of book1 and then come back to book1.Would then compile this in copy.
Baaki marks bata denge how right I was.

@Asli_hai_sabDon't believe if u don't want to. I am not forcing u to believe.I told this to my friend (was only in contact with a single person during entire prep) and he laughed at me.
Baaki har kisi ko shortcut apnana hota hai Isliye sab coaching jaate hain.Koi hard yards nahi karta.
Kaho to video bana ke daal denge.
K hair leave it.I don't want to prove anything to anyone.The most important thing is I am being honest with myself.
P.S- People do read more than this.Read tusharanu sharma on mrunal and u will realize.
He was from a good b school and so am I.The best B schools may not teach u anything but they do teach how to read very fast and comprehend even faster+ they also teach how to write or respond to questions which u have little idea about (this does help in completing paper without joining even a single test series.He also did not join any mains test series).
Cheers and best of luck to u
