Starting again, this time to the finish line. 

Targets for tomorrow: 

• Finish Art & Culture Revision 
• Start Ancient & Medieval Revision (1/2) 
• Test Analysis 
• Mock Test

Finish Art & Culture Revision. Gave a mock test. Instead of Ancient & Medeival, I revised Budget & ES. No test analysis done. 

Time spent studying - 8.25 Hours

Targets: 

• Start Ancient & Medieval Revision (1/2) 
• Test Analysis 
• SFG Revision (3 tests) 
• Mock Test 

Disappointing day. Giving a mock is easy, the inertia to analyse it is real. Big backlog now. Was only able to give a mock and do history revision. 

Study hours - 5 

Targets: 

• Ancient & Medieval Revision (2/3)
• Mock Test Analysis - Vision Budget & ES 
• SFG Revision (3 Tests) - Try to cover more 

Hope tomorrow is better for all of us! 

Did the history revision, finished analysing the test. Minimal progress on SFG revision. 

Study Hours - 8 

Targets: 

• Finish Ancient & Medieval Revision 
• Test Analysis - Vision Budget & ES 
• SFG Revision (3 tests) 
• Attempt a Mock Test 

Trying to keep the prelims anxiety at bay by not thinking about it at all. Working so far but who knows what unintended consequences it might bring. Indeed, Ignorance is bliss! 

Forgot to post yesterday. 

Targets: 

• Finish Ancient & Medieval (this is taking far too long!) 
• Test Analysis - 2 mocks 
• Mock Test 

Finished history, finally. Instead of one, I gave two mocks yesterday. However, test analysis took a lot of time. Only managed to do 50% of one test. Wasted a study slot and hence couldn't finish all the targets. 

Targets: 

• Economy (1/4) 
• Test Analysis (0.5 + 1) 
• Government Schemes 

Couldn't study in the first half and the productivity remained low in the second. Did manage to progress across all three but it isn't good enough when the exam is around 30 days away!

Targets:

• Economy (2/4) 
• Test Analysis 
• Government Schemes 
• Mock FLT (If above three get finished!) 

I did the test analysis, government schemes and gave a mock. Test analysis took a lot of time and that left very little time for economy revision. Although I did touch upon it for a couple of hours but that isn't good enough for the pace I'd have wanted. Will extend the timeline. 

Targets: 

• Economy (3/6) 
• Test Analysis (2 Tests) 
• Government Schemes (If time permits)

Disappointing day friends. Finished one test and did a little bit of revision. Need to trim down the time taken to analyse one test. Today will be better. 

Targets: 

• Economy (3/6) 
• Test Analysis (1 Test) 
• Government Schemes (If time permits)

Decent day today. Was able to revise economy well. I did government schemes and gave a new test instead of analysing a previous one. It was a good decision considering that it helped me get over some post vision FLT trauma! 

Targets: 

• Economy (4/6) 
• Test Analysis (1 test) 
• Schemes (If time permits)

The prelims fear has started to trickle in, one more month to go!

I had been procrastinating since a long while about getting vaccinated. I had been infected with COVID earlier so had to wait 3 months. Finally got that done today and I'm feeling a little dazed. Anyway, I'm going to keep things light now, these targets shift to tomorrow. 

Today was a tough day and yet I'm happy with how I tackled it. Post vaccination side effects made me lose focus and efficiency but the urgency of prelims ensured I didn't slack off. Was able to revise Economy, will still need at least two more days. Economy took a lot of time so I changed my plans and went about revising Indices once I was done with it. 

Targets: 

• Economy (5/6) 
• Test Analysis (1 test) 
• Attempt 1 Mock
• Schemes/Indices (If time permits)

Just read through the thread, seeing all the people struggle and keep fighting made me remember some lines I keep visiting in my bad days. 

JRR Tolkein, "Fellowship of the Ring"

“All that is gold does not glitter,

Not all those who wander are lost;

The old that is strong does not wither,

Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

From the ashes a fire shall be woken,

A light from the shadows shall spring;

Renewed shall be blade that was broken,

The crownless again shall be king.” 

Economy took a lot of time again, but I was finally able to finish the static portion. I'm changing a couple of things, will go back to Economy (only CA) after I'm done with Environment and S&T. Did about 50% of test analysis and a little bit of schemes here and there. Slacked off in the second half, not again! Tomorrow is sort of a bridge day, taking care of some loose ends. 

Targets: 

• 1 Mock 
• Finish Test Analysis 
• Finish June, July Vision CA (Push for August?)
• Indices (if time permits) 

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! 😂

Finished revision for the day and CA.  Spent a lot of time on revision because I didn't want to stray off the revision schedule. That led to today being another day of not being able to make time for test analysis. Will do tomorrow. 

Targets: 

• Environment Revision (2/4) 
• Finish Open Mock Test Analysis 

Done with both of the targets. Not happy with the pace of revision, but I'll take it. 

Targets: 

• Environment Revision (3/4)
• Finish Test Analysis 
• Give a Mock (if time permits)

Today has been one big vicious circle. Didn't want to revise in the morning so gave a test, didn't get good marks so couldn't concentrate on revision later. Instead, I finished Medeival history PYQs. Struggled with Environment a little bit but mostly I'm going consider today a null day for the subject. Going to give another test now before I'm off to sleep. 

Targets for tomorrow: 

• Environment Revision (3/4)
• Finish Test Analysis - Economy 

Most of the time was spent on Environment, which seems never ending. Went back to test analysis and indices/schemes in between but not much. 

Tomorrow: Finish Environment Revision

Hello Guys, I have compiled all the Personalities/Organizations and related info mentioned in the 12th History NCERT (Bipan Chandra) in 4-5 pages. Might come in handy for a quick revision.

The first half went well. Second half took away all the joy. Got to know something terrible about a person I used to call a friend and I let that affect me. Did sit to study but the concentration was sub par at best. Now is not the time. No more delays in deadlines. 

Targets: 

• Finish Environment Revision (5/5)
• GS Mock 
• CSAT Mock (if I'm bored and done with the other targets) 
• Start Polity Revision (1/3) 

@sstarrr Great to hear that. Congrats! :D
