CSE 2022: Plan/ Strategy/ Daily Routine

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

Attempted Abhyaas+Simulator 2, Decent Day.

Tomorrow is going to be-

Vision FLT 

SFG+PYQ

CSAT+Current+Newspaper. 


Wow Day!

Targets remain same for tomorrow.

Done but below average day :(

Tomorrow-

Vision FLT

SFG

Current+CSAT+News.


Decent Day.

Targets remain same.

Some changes are needed after seeing the kind of mistakes I've done in the tests-

- 2 strongest of my areas(Polity+Modern History) seem backfiring, gonna address them.

- Overall memory/revision issue in most static content.

- I was hell scared of Economy n now doing decently in most of the FLTs.

-Taking a break from tests n will be doing PYQs static revision. 

Share your views about the above mentioned step I've planned to take. 

Tomorrow gonna be like-

1. PYQs Medieval History.

2. Finish Satish Chandra relevant part.

3. Current Affairs of Jan.

4. News+CSAT

2. Forum ques bank- Banking and Capital Market

Managing CGL and UPSC is not easy.. I took a year break from CSE and attempted several exams out of which i cracked SSC CGL. So take a call. At the end nicking a job is the key.

Good thinking...Give various exams which have overlapping syllabus(maths+English+reasoning+GK). U r sure to nick one of them..exams u can consider giving are SSC CGL, RBI, NABARD and SEBI..

Targets for April 24 (day 55)

1. Planning the schedule ahead

2. PSIR - will start book reading for 1A. By now, I feel only optional is left unprepared in mains preparation. Have always done it in crash course mode. Fundamentals maybe lacking.

Wanted to appear in RBI and other regulatory body exams this year, but three days back jkpsc has come up with another notification for 2022. Prelims is due in two months. Exam dates are also clashing. Will stick to jkas.

Past few days had been amazing. Have come back with renewed energy. To a new beginning, cheers. Good luck dostoen : )
