Guys since my essay paper was a disaster so someone please guide me to where should I take essay coaching.. I heard Shabbir sir and Vikas Ranjan are good. Any opinion is welcome

See... firstly have faith in yourself. People say that 'structure रट' kar jao...no teacher will help in essay because several others mug up these things.


Also Upsc knows that you have rote learned the structure so philosophy essays burst those structures. Essay demands your original ideas, not your teachers original ideas. To create your perspective do read philosophy...people will say nahi yeah mat padho..but brother do read about plato Aristotle...essay needs us to write some kind of flowery language with some lucid thoughts. No teacher can teach you that.

Also read stories, fiction, non fiction,etc. but not for the sake of essay. In this way you can learn about anecdotes.

All I'm thinking about right now is the fact that I need to lose weight. :(

But guys, it's been an exhausting couple of weeks. We all deserve a break. Start worrying about your essay performance after a couple of days. I'm putting my anxiety on hold for now.

@MachineGunJoe I lost 8 kg for interview, gained back 6 in 3 months, by the time forest mains gets over I will probably be back to square 1.

@necromancer I can guarantee a lot of people think dal and badam is a good source of protein. It’s not even close

From june 2020 to january, I have gained 11 kgs. All due to stress eating.

@Murali yeah certainly not but for a sedentary lifestyle it’s okayish enough. As far as my experience goes, without whey supplements it’s very difficult for a vegetarian to get their daily fill of protein to gain muscle mass.

@necromancer leave about supplements bhai. Most people don’t know how much you need to consume and how much actually consuming.
