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.

Yesterday wasn't a good day.
Today was much better. What I managed to do:
1) Real Analysis (only improper integrals left)
2) PYQs of numerical analysis (computer part is left)
3) miscellaneous GS stuff that was pending
4) Filled out DAF
Also is anyone else facing the problem of forum's UI, when you open the threads, acting wacky?
Yes!
Good morning friends, been missing from the thread for a while now trying out a more “unplanned” schedule, realised that now my prep is all over the place and several loose threads need to be tied together. So as an attempt to get back to structured studies, targets for 26.11.21 are:
Econ 365 (1/4)
AWP- finish test
Copy writing
Polity 365- section 1
PSIR
AWP for PSIR
Daily C/A
Lesson learnt: i do much better with structure in life… I’m not hippie enough for “learn whatever catches my fancy”. Bread out

Also are you still having to scroll from the top a thread every time, or is that just me?

Its happening with me too... Both the unstructured preparation as well as the forum's UI
Since August when I Diligently started preparing, I have never really felt sleepy or wanting to just lie down in bed..
But now that the mains is just round the corner, I just want to sleeeeeepppp 💤😴..
Couldn't complete a mock that I was trying to do, because felt too sleepy!!
Jaldi khatam ho ye sab, then I'll sleep as much as I want..

Totally on the other side of the spectrum. Not getting good sleep these days, similar was the case 1 month before prelims. And it has been reducing my efficiency. I know after mains i will overcompensate for the sleep loss 😂

I’ve learnt the same lesson. Prep is a mess without a proper plan. No choice other than to schedule every day of my life. *sigh*

Hi, I had felt the same way till this week too.
I switched to black coffee, without sugar (will be tough initially) made a lot of difference. Not even slightly weary
For best result , try drinking it about an hour before the work you wanna do.
If you want to write a test at 9 , drink a glass at 8 , caffine starts kicking in by 9.30 around and keeps you going
Hope this helps

Forgot to post last night. It managed to finish 80% of all my targets only. But something of everything is better than nothing of many things. It’s a slow crawl but it’s headed upwards
