But do one thing at a time, one day at a time.

If someone is struggling with low marks in full length tests (any institute's), just keep in mind that there's still decent amount of time. Enough to revise everything properly, be it current affairs or static/basic material, or to work on mistakes!🙂
Love how supportive this thread is<3
Tumhara 2 am ka post padhke bohot acha laga tha!
Anyone who has done or is doing Dipin Sir's Prelims CA lecture? I am getting very impatient with them. In polity classes, time is wasted on static topics given in Laxmikant, and very few topics are covered in a 3 hour class. It would be easier and faster to simply read PT365. Just want someone's opinion on this.
I'd say stick with it. If you feel you are investing more time than required, watch it at 2x and take it as a part of your revision. Once the polity section of the classes are done, just go through the index of PT 365 to make sure you are not missing any important topic.
On a personal note, I kinda enjoy the classes between these heavy and tiring revision sessions.

Hi bhai.I am doing good. Unconventional sa hi approach I can afford with less time at disposals focusing on solving Workbooks+ will do FLTs in the last 30 days or so.
Also,I have always felt some differences between Mocks and actual Prelims(could be quite wrong)-
Elimination- Easier in Actual Prelims vis a vis Mocks.
Make or break Sections- Those that have easier questions. Polity and Economics(maybe, Geography in the past 1-2 years) decides if one clears or not.
Tricks and all- Certainly work in actual prelims, if not that much in mocks. Not every answer turns out to be right but the net result is positive.
Also,realised that@THE_MECHANIC bhai 2020 ke thread mei 2023 ki routine post kar rahe!

somehow, I have ended up with the opposite conclusion!
I feel UPSC has a set/limited number of questions, in which elimination can be used, rest are usually questions to be attempted through lateral thinking, an educated guess, intuition and all. Overall elimination statements are less, I think.
I feel mock tests give you a wider scope to use elimination strategies, of course there are certain mock tests which are VERY difficult, ignoring them and looking at the average mock paper, there seems to be more options and chances given to eliminate and to reach the actual answer.
Maybe for UPSC, there is more focus on conceptual clarity, which reduces the elimination chances and now with the pairing questions, they are on the path of eliminating the elimination!
Personally, I love the elimination questions, so much joy when just by striking one statement out, a complex question can be solved easily!

Agree with you on this one.

I agree. I should complete atleast one source very well, then go on to anything else.

Could be a thing. I am, however ,not taking into account the 'number of elimination based questions'.They could be fewer in number vis a vis mocks.In my experience , even if I could eliminate one statement, the job was almost done for a good number of question. Also,in our angst against the commission, we generally cite that all our guesses went wrong. I believe this is half the picture. Actually,we get a good deal of them right based on our intuition and aaj kucch toofani karte hai spirit.
Vaise,this one statement/two statements/... wali innovation on the part of commission is scary.I dread a situation if they include such options in 60-70 questions !
