This is an everything thread for all stuff 2022. You can post your daily goals, end-of-the-day updates, weekly targets or any weird thing you use to measure your progress. You can put into words & post the soul-sucking sadness that is threatening to devour you & your productivity. You can write what made your day & let others experience the happiness too, at least vicariously. This is a thread to pick each other up. This is a thread to keep each other accountable. This is a no-judgement zone.
--------
“This is one more piece of advice I have for you: don't get impatient. Even if things are so tangled up you can't do anything, don't get desperate or blow a fuse and start yanking on one particular thread before it's ready to come undone. You have to realize it's going to be a long process and that you'll work on things slowly, one at a time.”
— Haruki Murakami, Norwegian Wood
Back to exam preparation after a loooooong break! Need this thread and the motivation that all you amazing people bring to it.

Hey, I'm doing the vision summary. I'll compliment it with two mocks just to be sure.
Doing 20 pages a day of the real survey will take a lot of time :P
I will suggest take FORUM ,leave shankar.
Doing Shankar offline, mostly for simulating exam conditions. Doing Vision at home from pirated pdfs.
What is Forum? Is it some new coaching? :D

2. Pre - previous year mock tests of Modern History, CSAT 2021 paper
