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.

I recommend going through the thematic areas of work in the following website.


Themes | Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (fao.org)


The question on 'Conservation Agriculture' in 2018 is directly from one of the themes in this list. Similarly I think it would be a good idea to just go through some of the websites of prominent international organizations like the WEF, UNEP etc.

    Day 6- (first day on this thread)

    Till now I studied for the first two days only. Later on, I didn't study at all. My today's target is to invest 5 hours.

    I will complete 60 pages of ancient history NCERT by 4:30 pm. From page number 115 to 175.


    The plan was to complete all the three history NCERTs - Ancient, Medieval and Modern History by the 8th of May. I am still on first NCERT, yet to start medieval and modern history. I will push myself afresh from now on.
