Mains 2021 - Strategy, Doubts, Resources etc
Hi peeps!
Prelims result will be declared in 2-3 weeks. We may make it, we might not. Speculations will continue till then.
This thread is for those who want to move on. For those deciding to focus on the next phase of their prep; perhaps the most crucial one. We have less number of days this time (only about 85 days left). Let's collaborate and make the most of this time.
Here are the links to previous year's threads. Do go through them. There are gems in there.

You'll find them here in the economy section. Even though this is last year's notes, most of it is relevant now also.
Also agriculture classes for 2021 haven't been conducted yet.

can someone explain Ecowrap report of SBI that claimed informal sector has contracted to 20% ? it left me in great confusion when i read an article about it. The report talks about size of informal sector in India's GDP which is 20% of Formal sector now according to same report. How does it correlate with formalisation. Doesnt it show that informal sector which employs 80% of population is in doldrums and struggling , and doesnt it higlight the extreme level of inequality if 80% people are working in a sector that's producing only 20% of GDP? Should it be a matter of jubilation or serious concern ?

JohnButlerTrain,
@Neyawn I am writing Mains for the first time this year. I wrote school boards in ICSE board. For DAF-1, I am confused whether to mention my Best 4 (12th) Best 5 (10th) subjects based percentage or overall percentage based on all subjects? National toppers, our percentage in ICSE are given as per best 4/5 subjects. It's so common that everyone remembers only best 4/5 based percentage. But marksheet itself does not mention any percentage.
