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.

Morning guys :)

9th June

• PSIR: Hobbes + PYQ (2-3 hours)

• Security (3-4 hours)

• AWP (1 hour)

• May CA (1/3)

All done. Not proud of the way I did answer writing today though. Focus to be on not compromising quality kal se 😂

  1. Watched the first episode of the new mini series Mare of Easttown during lunch. It’s a small town crime drama starring Kate Winslet. Quite good so far. 
  2. @Mare_of_Easttown yesterday I thought to myself what a strange username you had, but I get it now. 😂
  3. Has everyone taken up running suddenly? I used to feel smug about getting 10k steps down, but now I feel like an elderly. Does running from responsibilities count? 

Running away from responsibilities is how it starts

@Villanelle Anything that increases your heart rate counts. Being active for even 15-20 minutes is very very beneficial. So basically you're winning 🤗


Well stress and nervousness increases my heart rate counts.. So am I winning??

Start doing lunges and squats whenever you feel nervous :p 

"Nervous? Me? Lol no. This is just the sound of me getting super fit."
