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.

@EiChan - paper was easy -Attempted 93 - correct -73 ,wrong-20
Lessons learnt- i found paper easy( my personal view) ->got overexcited and did some silly mistakes -costed me 4,5 question ( so silly that I can’t even say to anyone)
Today did forum open mock -scored descently -what about you guys and what’s your take on it
The open mock is a pudding that tastes delicious today but makes you constipated tomorrow. ( I was happy with my score of 120ish yesterday but distraught with my rank of 1300 as in the end its a competitive exam, it's of no use even if I score 200 but still rank low :(

Don't take open ONLINE mocks so seriously, you never know what other might be doing while taking exam, they might have used the books or internet.
120 is a good score.
@balwintejas I am fine dost.
@LetsGetThisBread Take care of yourself and have a good movie night. :)

Forum’s previous tests/materials had a direct overlap with many questions in that test. Probably that’s why so many have such high scores. 120 is a great score! Forget about the rank.
@balwintejas -we have done our karma -now nothing is in our hand and now is the time to focus on Prelims
@HeNeArKr - ranks doesn’t matter( in war everyone is equal be it officer and a ordinary sepoy ,one who knows his strength and weaknesses and work on them survives and wins - Hemu was killed by an ordinary sepoy) -one should learn from the mistakes and avoid them in future tests ,120 is a good score
Signing off for the day- over and out

hemu became unconscious by a freak arrow, was later beheaded by bairam khan...he was a king who had won every war in his life and was on the way to win the last war if not for that arrow. His headless body was later hanged near the Purana quila.... geopolitics would have been different had he not lost, funny how a piece of wood and a metal still continues to impact the lives of 1.5 billion people
Funny how all it takes is one score to shake things up. Alas, the mind is too fragile.
Gave a mock, finished yesterday's test analysis and almost finished June CA (90%)
Targets:
- Finish June, July and August CA
- Open Mock Test Analysis
Edit: Just realised Vision hasn't released August CA yet, will instead do Flora & Fauna
The bad day streak continues. Not as bad as it could be, but bad enough when prelims is so close. I finished June CA, almost finished July CA (90%) and didn't analyse the open mock. That'll happen tomorrow. Still, did give a mock test when I didn't want to do anything else and then went on to solve extra questions.
Targets:
- Environment Revision (1/4)
- Finish Open Mock Test Analysis
- Finish July CA
Also, hoping that Forum conducts another open mock test so that I can redeem myself after the super rank today! 😂
