2nd slot - current affairs for mains (3 hrs)
3rd slot - current affairs for prelims (1 - 1.5 hrs)

Will definitely do some exercise , no phone calls during study hrs
Will consume very less digital content and that too related to studies only.
Tanked today’s targets, besides the SFG wasn’t able to complete anything!
I needed an advise on how should I sync my prep with the SFG calendar, is it advisable to appear in tests without revising a day before (though there isn’t a number to which one should ideally revise Laxmikanth, but I did a run through one month ago), and revise the test properly after giving it?
Give it a shot. I go through the old sfg test (same syllabus) and quickly glance through Laxmikanth to read tricky stuff. Will follow this for subjects I'm comfortable with: economics, modern history (freedom movement). Will shift almost completely to SFG for other subjects.
Hey! thanks, though I'm scoring low without prior revision, but it helps me to know what areas I'm consistently lacking in. Will align revision with SFG calendar starting August, for a more structured approach.

quote of the day:-
कर दिखाने का मौका,
जब भी किस्मत देती है
गिन के तैयारी के दिन,
तुझको मोहलत देती है
मांगती है लागत में,
तुझसे हर बूँद पसीना
पर मुनाफा बदले में
ये जान ले बेहद्द देती है
रे बन्दे की मेहनत को किस्मत
का सादर परनाम है प्यारे
दंगल दंगल
दंगल दंगल
