@Qoqo what is 25 -5? I googled and it says 20! 🤔
It refers to Pomodoro technique in which you work for 25 minutes and rest for 5 minutes. Works really well for some people though it has never worked for me.
My update is becoming monotonous - high target, low achievement :P
Attempted 4 Tests for SFG Modern India ->couldn't properly go over mistakes and this I have to doEducation, Press, Revolt of 1857 and Simon Commission done from Spectrum, 25% of FLT revised, read economics even though wasn't planned, missed out on Mapping
Targets for 29/08/2020:
1. Spectrum 1939-1947
2. Spectrum Constitutional Development part and read appendix - Newspapers, Important trials etc
3. One Full Length Test and analysis (I hope so)
4. World Climatic Patterns - Revise
5. Revise the mistakes made in SFG tests
6. Try and sneak in 10-15 pages of Vision Society CA
Couldn't update yesterday as the low phase struck suddenly again. Could only read till end of INA Trials, gave one mock but didn't fully revise (this will be my downfall but I am really unable to analyse my attempts properly). Climatic Patterns, just read Koeppen and the basic types but the problem is with the vegetation in my case.
Have recovered a bit now, so starting again now, today will be about trying to catch up with earlier, complete the analysis from earlier, finish spectrum till 1947 and the appendix plus Vision Society Booklet.
@iskool I have also been struggling with these. There are multiple sources from where you can read, banking websites have a huge list but for those in news, I am refering to Rau's Prelims Compass List and Vision PT365 List. Attaching just the image below, it is from their Science and Tech booklet.
🙏
Aug 30 ( work day)

Today is work day so will try to complete pt 365 sci & tech 2nd revison alone.
@HotBloodPrince all good, thanks for asking.

somewhat, it gives you a reason to avoid work OR say feel satisfied every 25 minutes.
This question is to those who are clocking 9+ hours consistently - how do you manage to sit for long hours? I mean physically, how do you keep going? I max out at about 7-8 hours. Also been experiencing tremendous lower back pain of late due to continuous sitting. It's come to the point where I literally have to lie on the floor for relief. This shouldn't be happening at 23 years of age.
as soon as u wake up start studying as suggested by newyan sir(ab chahe 10 baje uth rahe ho ya 12 baje) no brush no tea bas splash some water on ur face and start studying
back dukh rhi hai toh ghumte ghumte padlo

bas yhi ilaj hai iska,keech lo ek mahina hai

2) Nitin Singhania- section C (70%) ~✓
3) Pt 365 culture ✓
4) Spectrum × × ×
Pcs Mains specific:
1) Revised 1 geography optional test series 1/3rd.
Wrote 2 answers in skeleton form. ✓
GS Answer ×

Remarks
1) That was some 2 days timetable which I wrote yesterday. :P
2) Racing through to revisit every book. Glance through PDFs. Focus is on recognition. I certainly don't remember most of the things I read this night.
After 10 days: Revision with focus on retention. And then if time permits. Revision with recall. Abhi to yhi Socha hai. Trial & error. There is no plan. There never was.
30/8
+ Spectrum - summary
+ Post independent India NCERT
+ Insights Mock
Kudos to you.
I have given up on PCS mains. Focusing on prelims only.
I could not do both simultaneously. Will be just giving the mains exam for namesake purpose only.
