CSE 2022: Plan/ Strategy/ Daily Routine

This is an everything thread for all stuff 2022. You can post your daily goals, end-of-the-day updates, weekly targets or any weird thing you use to measure your progress. You can put into words & post the soul-sucking sadness that is threatening to devour you & your productivity. You can write what made your day & let others experience the happiness too, at least vicariously. This is a thread to pick each other up. This is a thread to keep each other accountable. This is a no-judgement zone.

--------

“This is one more piece of advice I have for you: don't get impatient. Even if things are so tangled up you can't do anything, don't get desperate or blow a fuse and start yanking on one particular thread before it's ready to come undone. You have to realize it's going to be a long process and that you'll work on things slowly, one at a time.”

— Haruki Murakami, Norwegian Wood

@Lawstice  same here. Did all possible things. But didn't clear. I have seen ur hard work and discipline in SFG. But remember God has some best plans for all of us. It may seem painful today but it will act as building blocks for future. Good luck. Stay strong for next chance, that will be urs.

And here I come again. 

Fourth Attempt.

1st, 2019: Failed Pre. (1.xx less in CSAT, 3-4 less in GS)

2nd, 2020: Cleared Pre, Failed in Mains 548

3rd, 2021: Cleared Pre, Cleared Mains 700, Failed in FR (43 marks less than cut-off)

4th, 2022: Cleared Pre.  

Congratulations Europol for the hatrick of the prelims. You have the potential and you can do it. Learn from your past mistakes and give your best this time. :)

As always, I am feeling pain for my close friends who could not do it this time, but never give up guys. We are in 'God's waiting room'.

Qualified IIT JEE, cleared Maths Olympiad, top 0.01 percentile in science by CBSE class 10th... everything in vain.. failed CSAT in 5th attempt. UPSC never leaves an opportunity to teach a lesson. This time learned it the hard way.

If we ignore main marks and pre marks and focus principally on results, my cse journey is an exact replica of yours

Those who are IN, congrats! Could you please provide some insights into your Prelims (GS Paper) Preparation too? What you did that helped you clear? I'm scared shitless of Prelims.

No words of consolation can help those who are in pain of failure. It's so damn devastating. Please don't seek sympathy especially online as it is perfectly fine to fail in an exam where the funnel is too narrow 


I have something important to say to those who are writing the Mains (Or maybe my younger self) : It's literally a GOLDEN chance. Words can't describe how painful it is to fail the Prelims (quite a possibility given the increased uncertainty) after writing a mains in previous attempt.DON'T LET THIS ONE GO AT ANY COSTS.


Study the maximum you can. Break those chairs and write revise write revise and write again as much as you can !! Move at frequencies that people fail to believe you. All the best to all.
