Best wishes + Paper Discussion Mains 2024

Scrolling through over here I saw a discssion thread for every year but didn't find one for the next year.

So, this thread is dedicated to the discssions regarding CSE 2024. Anyone planning to appear for the exam next year can join the discussion.

Looking at the level of paper and kind of questions asked this year, I believe we are going to need a lot of support from each other. Hopefully this thread will grow and help a lot of aspirants, both old and new.

We can do it.

@Neyawn  sir  finding difficult to cope up with MGP schedule creating backlogs of tests(kindly advice). Anyone from community could explain how are they managing MGP schedule.

Give one month and half to paper 2 and finish paper 2 tests. Just one paper at a time.

Give another 45 days to only paper 3 and finish them.

Know your own limits, and just try to improve capability. Some people write two tests a week, some people can't write one test in 3 weeks - a lot will depend on your preparation.

Don't jump into wtiting the exam without decent preparation.Annually.

Is it feasible to prepare for mains in the time post prelims?

my optional will be done in a week.  want to give more time to prelims for the fear of it.

I'm equally surprised, with forum gaining popularity, the community seems to be getting more inactive.. it's the upsc contemporary of Karakoram anomaly

I've noticed that if I don't maximize my output in the morning session (3-3.5 hrs), the rest of the day is spent in guilt and no real productivity
