@SunnyParashar I followed your strategy for prelims, except solved some PYQ. But for mains mugging up word for word takes a lot of time right? Did you do mains 365. I also think your strategy is right but it took me a lot of time for mains.
@SunnyParashar and how many times did you revise your handwritten notes?
So in general people go for multiple readings or mugging up?That is the doubt I have since the past 3 years that how are people able to retain things without mugging up.
3 years into this prep and having cleared this stage this year,I am still clueless is my method the right one of writing the 1st answer directly in the exam hall
Same doubt. Atleast you stuck your method. I have juggled with both and end up doing nothing (wrt Mains)
@Ajatashatru This doubt tormented me so much during this year mains. I usually have a habit of mugging up and I did the same for my optional notes. It was taking very long so I decided to read instead , but was not able to get the satisfaction which I used to derive when I byhearted. Also , it felt incomplete (FOMO was at an all time high as I feared I won't be able to remember in exam). It took some time to get used to it, still not perfect at it.
I have realized that although mugging makes you recall better but it's not useful until you revise. Also , one downfall I think is that you tend to recall the exam same wordings rather than the main idea which yoy want to write . It gets really difficult when there is so much of syllabus and so less time .
PS: Very relieved that I'm not alone and others also grapple with this issue
Bhai, I have grappled with this issue for 2 mains. FOMO is the exact term.
Now I feel , intro and conclusions, stats for gs and quotes for psir should be by hearted. But rest should be read, multiple times
@KratosOfPUBG whats wrong with a sea of skull caps brother? How does that bother you?
@necromancer bhai I got to know that 2-3 people I know are not taking the vaccines. Now these people work in private organisations, they are quite senior and very very privileged. Now I wont want to say all rich people working in Private sector do not believe science right?
@Ajatashatru are they not taking them because of being rich? Or working in a private sector? No.Because in the cases I mentioned, it’s not just them. They’re not doing it as an independent decision but because they’ve been misled by a religious figure. A religious figure that is also heard and followed by many others.Why bring up such a stupid point?
Ooops. Did not read the Imam part or must have skipped it. Sorry
Regardless, I did not know stupid points are not allowed. I have seen enough of them today.
