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.

GS3 paper me kya pooch rhe , dimaag hil rha. ya toh ek dum geenral qsn pooch liya , ya itna specific kuch pta hi nhi uske rgarding
Q18th was from ndma plan. Post sendai framework, disaster mgmt cycle was followed which included pre and post disaster measures such as mitigation, preparedness, rehab and recovery. Just need to mention standard points for each.
But true, NCAP isn't worth 250 word answer so we could've have written about relevant air pollution dimensions.
fir number kyu nhi aa rhe GS3 me logo ke pichle 2-3saal se@D503 yai sab to kafi easy hota bhai
Still better than 2019 GS 3 paper 💀

Terribly terrible day..
Did not study anything after 1 pm, despite waking at 5 am in the morning..
This is not just working....
Upar se this stupid fever and weakness... I did not sign up for this ...
Gs-2 is still pending even after spending 1 week on it.. Had to move on to optional from tomorrow, but now it feels like Gs-2 will take 3 more days..
Extremely disappointing day.. ..

One day doesn’t make the prep… one day doesn’t break it either. Go easy on yourself, rest because your body needs it and get back full steam ahead when you’re feeling better. 😊

People with PSIR optional: how long do you take to revise WPT? and topics with multiple subtopics like IR theories wala? And how long are you taking to revise one section in general?
...just trying to assess if I'm too slow :/
I take a ridiculous amount of time too, then keep going back to re-revise because I'm forgetting. But time doesn't matter (I think). Some people do 5 quick revisions, some do 2 in-depth ones. Both work (I think, lol).

Hello guys. I will be posting some different targets from now on. I will be posting no. of hours instead of study topics.
The reasoning- My problem is sitting and studying, and whenever I manage to do so, targets are automatically done.
So, the target for 22nd November is-10-hour study.
Note- This 10 hr will only include core study hours and not just sitting on my table. Let us begin! :)
I am facing problems while writing answers given the fact that I have not practised answer writing before this. I feel my answers are not good enough. I feel like giving up in between. I also feel that I have so much to write and how do I write concisely. I have already analysed toppers' copies. But nothing is working out :( Does anyone have any suggestions?
I suggest keep writing. Like you have mentioned that you have so much to write, with more practise, it will gradually turn concise.. We just need to come out of inertia of writing good answers in the beginning. Once we are in groove of writing on time, mind will get acclimatise to think and write spontaneously. Value addition can be done anytime. Good luck ✌️
