How hectic is SFG 2022?
So some feel SFG is hectic, some people feel it is mageable, some people feel it is going a bit slow. What do you feel?
Overall, I feel SFG has a well-designed plan. However, if it would have been further spread i.e. 10 more days, it will give us more adequate time to cover NCERTs well, which is quite important in these months. Also, for subjects like History and Environment, the SFG schedule should give more time because they are factual in nature and needs time to memorize. @Neyawn Sir, It would be great if you consider it based on popular demand, and stretch it by 10 March. Then also, with a strong base, we will have time to pick other things in level-2, which probably starts by 15-20 March to 10-15 May, and in the last 15-20 days we can revise on our own.
Whatever plans forumias makes, i dont think we should stretch beyond may. My previous experience has been that the last month should be exclusively for revision and nothing new. Else it gets overwhelming.
If they consider the saturday break…we should compensate it by shortening the time between sfg1 n 2 and not extending into may. At this point of time, i don't think there should be an issue if we only have a small gap between sfg1 n sfg2.
In my case, i feel Daily targets can be done to a large extent if i push myself. Things start going south when i think about mains. At the same time completely switching to pre is causing anxiety.
Thumb rule is that if you have not cleared Prelims before like 1-2 times or more, you stick to Prelims. Matlab saal bhar chhor ke Mains ki yaad prelims ke pehle hi aati hai. Jaise ki some people join a Prelims test series next day after the Prelims is over and not before.
Having said that, extending the program by 10 days - our experience is that people will not be able to sustain a high-pitched preparation, so the shorter we keep it , the better it will be. You extend it by another months and you see commitment and energy levels drop. After 2 months of rigorous studying, you will need a break of 10 days or so, where productivity will tank. Level 2, Polity, you should sail through even in low productivity times.
Similarly, when Level 2 finishes, there will be a sudden drop in productivity for 10 days or so. After that, it has to pick up the pace, and you have to go full throttle for Prelims. The goal should be to finish off Level 2, 20-30 days before the Prelims so that you have a 10 day low study phase followed by 10-15 days of day night revision before writing the actual Prelims. In the end, we have to peak on the day of the Prelims. Not before or after it.
The peaks that you are expected to have during SFG are small hilltops.
Can’t we shift the timing to 9:30@Neyawn sir ?
these spine chilling cold days, omicron…….
also, we could simulate real exam timings 9:30 to 11:30 including revision for what our body needs to b habituated.
phoenix29,Amazing first week experience..After failed 10th October 2021 battle I'm trying to get back into the momentum but failed again and again then decided to join SFG ( earlier though will start from level 2 😀) then first week result..
1. Wake up early in the morning 6.30am ( chilly weather/fog..doesn't matter )
2. Almost completed polity which I'm trying to complete since last month
3. Increases daily hours of study ( as need to give time current,optional)
4. Improve productivity as pressure to get good marks and rank as well
Overall great experience and will assure myself that SFG will bring me back into the battle of 5th June 2022🤘
PabloJr,
Can't say it's hectic but it gets overwhelming sometimes when you have to align your optional and gs mains and current affairs along with the sfg schedule. Also getting low scores since you are not able to revise laxmikant is a bit frustating at times. But the most satisfying part is getting up in the morning everyday and having a routine for the entire day, so what if its a bit hectic.
