Hello friends. Which tests are you all planning to give in next 10 days? I want to give 3-4 relatively easier tests to sustain my confidence and then will switch to solved PYQs. Also, people who were in SFG and wrote a good number of tests, till when will you write mocks? 

Thank you.

@sjerngal Thanks. 2 more questions

1. Did you revise the notes you made for prelims 2020 as well?
2. How did you cover the CA for these last 3-4 months (April 2021 onwards)

Is there an easy way to cover world history in 2-3 days? I've read the basics but notes aren't prepared. Are there any 20-30 page notes available that'll suffice?

    Hi. I need some advice

    I have prepared a good number of schematics/ flowcharts for GS papers. However, while writing the test, I'm not able to recall + incorporate them in the answers. This is probably due to lack of linkages of the schematics with the topics. 

    How do I ensure that this is rectified and I can maximise the output?

    Ethics 2020

    Q-7

    1. What % of answer space should be given to (a)

    2. In (b), 'discuss the options' means?

        - Do we have to list down merits/demerits of each possible options as well?

        - Do we have to choose our course of action? 


    They'd given this directive in Q10 where specifically CoA was asked.
