CSE 2021: Plan / Strategy / Daily Routine

Hello 2021 aspirants. I thought it would be nice if we can share what we are doing and intend to do with one another here.

This could be a thread for discussing everything prep for 2021. 

No one method fits all but to see the plans and progress made by fellow aspirants might help with the finer details of preparation and also keep one on track.

I can see a definite improvement in my productivity. this week I am planning on completing my backlog CA monthly magazines. Kudos to all others who have been posting consistently for the past 2 months. 

target for today is finishing October CA and starting November CA

---- 

edit at 7.50 pm. Finished October CA, starting Nov CA now.
