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.

Inspired by@Incoming going to write my daily progress

From a below average student who use to score 10+ grace marks in final exam and who could'nt write or read english till 8th class to a Upsc aspirant. Failed pre 3 times, then joined forumCGP 2022 batch. Upcoming is my 4th Attempt and I'm not going to mess with this attempt.

Major mistakes in my last attempts 

  1. not covering syllabus on time 
  2. not completing test series 
  3. not attempting enough mocks 
  4. practising csat and giving mocks

Target is to finish my prelims prep one month prior i.e By 25th april

  1. Finish my test series
  2.  30 mock papers GS and CSAT respectively

Feels good to have people with such great resilience in this community, welcome to the grind mate, power to you!

Where are other comrades@Incoming you are being lone wolf here, @Haryana @Avixiva  

guess sfg is keeping everyone on their toes, hopefully they'll be back soon.. btw how are you doing comrade? PT scenes sorted?

Keep going 

Very beautiful lines from three of us movie-

Ek tamasha shor ka ,kal fir se jhela jaayega,

Ek pathar aas ka ,saans se thela jaayega ,

Kal to tabhi aayega ,jab aaj khela jaayega ,

Ab nikal kar raah pe ,hum aa chuke hai to suno ,

Jaayenge hum us nagar,jis tak me thela jaayega ,

Kal to tabhi aayega ,jab aaj khela jaayega ,

Laakh moti jeb me tu rakh le chaahe to ,

Aakhir to muuthi me ek dhela jaayega ,

Kal to tabhi aayega ,jab aaj khela jaayega


You all will do great 😊 Have faith on yourself
