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.

Ordinary differential Equations - 40 pages
Resolve is not broken. I will finish 40 pages today, and not reduce target.
Look to finish ODE in two days to start prelims preparation by Feb 1.
Should I read original economic survey or gist of economic survey released by vision? Is it helpful for prelims (data based questions)? I am not looking to do it for GS3 mains paper (Don't have that much time). I have never read Economic Survey before and hence any help regarding this would be much appreciated.
Generally vision summary works well. To lessen the FOMO what I do is watch basava sir survey videos(raus) and if some chapter in summary feels like too short, read that chapter from original text.
This not just saves lot of time but also the absorption is better.
This approach works both for pre and mains. Just that for mains you need to do this for 2years survey.
Y'day again nothing substantial. Just read 1st chapter of survey and newspaper.
30/1
Slot 1(10.30 - 2.30): survey✔✔ chap2,3,4, kal khatam karenge vol1
