@harshtagy how did you know? Did they post location?

I called the coordinator there about the details.

I am planning to join. Wanted to know how daily workload looks like / if any optional preparation is possible alongisde in the initial days.

@gaulsoodman as per my understanding it will be a bit tough to manage optional preparation alongside. Rest it varies from person to person.

Yeah,
Going by last year's schedule - it's quite intense

Hey All

I just wanted to confirm—are you certain the location will be Alwar? I’m interested in joining but feeling uncertain after hearing it might be there.

Why would you want to keep doing optional preparation in January? Can you share your brief attempt history? And Prelims scores?

What are the primary concerns wrt location?

@Neyawn This year was my first prepared attempt. I was scoring between 87.xx to 96.xx in GS, was preparing with job - although the last 2 months before prelims job was non-existent. I also panicked quite a bit in the last 30 to 45 days, probably because I hadn't done ratta-fication earlier on. Previously, I had given prelims without preparation in 2023 just filling IFoS, and scored 47.xx in GS.

My Mains (GS+ Optional) notes are not ready and optional is Anthropology, which I am not very confident right now but I am giving it time daily. I am on track to finish the syllabus once comprehensively around with notes by end of November (could even be earlier). But answer writing/PYQs etc are left. Hence not very confident and want to give it more time.
For GS - will be doing the AWFG from day after tomorrow.

@SbhOP6 yes it is confirm that the location will be Alwar. In the confirmation mail, there is a mention of Himanshu Sir along with his contact no. Sir will be able to help you with all the doubts. Atleast he did in my case.
