CSE 2021: Plan / Strategy / Daily Routine

Hello 2021 aspirants. I thought it would be nice if we can share what we are doing and intend to do with one another here.

This could be a thread for discussing everything prep for 2021. 

No one method fits all but to see the plans and progress made by fellow aspirants might help with the finer details of preparation and also keep one on track.

25/7/21

Dynamics ->3/4 classes done;    CA revision ->50% done;

Couldn't complete my targets. Had a headache throughout the day so it slowed me down. Even then, with a little more effort, could have done more. I'll do my best to have a more productive day tomorrow.

Hope you all had a good week.

T20 25 July 2021 4  hrs

1 hr news

1 hr sfg test (scored a paltry half century. Since this test included csat, the GS percentage would have been around 40% ie 80 marks. This acts as bottom line score now.)

2 hrs social issues

Rest - Sunday chores and some resetting of furniture to create space in my room and my mind for the prelims overload in the next 2 months.

I stopped posting for a week with hopes of getting better. As accountability dropped, so did my productivity. So here I am again. The prelims is here and there's still a lot of optional left to be done. Going to continue the optional this week and then re-evaluate next Sunday. 


Targets: 

  • Revise Statics & Dynamics Theory 
  • Finish Prelims Mock Analysis 
  • Vision CA March (1/2) 


The first casualty of me losing the study tempo is always my sleep cycle. Need to figure out a way to not sleep late, wake up early and then feel sleepy all day. 


Here's hoping our olympic champions bring us the much needed inspiration :P
