Hello Fellow Hustlers, 

I have started a thread https://www.forumias.com/post/detail/Strictly-Prelims-2022-The-Random-Repository-1634105452 in an attempt to beat the "randomness" of the prelims! [Time will tell if we actually can] 

I have seen some very heartbreaking posts made by people, on how the randomness of the paper has made their years of struggle seem worthless! We all read the standard books and current affairs, and anything that comes from their can be tackled. It is the randomness against which we don't seem to have a weapon. I hope that this repository becomes that weapon.

Richard Dawkins says "the only alternative to randomness is Intelligent design" and I hope that we all can together beat that randomness or atleast put up a fight against that randomness

Please check out the thread and contribute if you like :)

Aye Boss, saw that you are one of the toppers in  MGP FLT1. 

So yaa looking forward to interact and learn from ya'll, v excited.

LOL! None of us are toppers until we actually find our names on the 'holy pdf'!

Also paraphrasing Vikram grewal (IFS, 2019) here 'Only those who get in the top 10 are toppers others are probably just crackers :p'

You might see me making more attempts to show my telugu :p

I love this language tbh. The words specially, I can understand though, not speak fully. 

Chala kastam ga undi for me to speak it. 

Jeevitham lo edi sulabam ga dorakadu, kani prayatnisthe edi kashtam kadu :D [ Nothing's easy in life, but if you try nothing's difficult ] 

Knowing an extra language is always a plus :p

I think we are gonna end up making a part of this thread, Duolingo that no one asked for! XD

Has anyone here attempted SFG entrance test before? what is it like ? And is the course available online, because the post says that the candidates have to report everyday at 7 A.M

SFG-2021-Level-2-Entrance-Examination-QP.pdf

This is the question paper of the entrance test I attempted for SFG level 2 last year. I didn't enroll for level 1 so don't know how the entrance for that was. 

The past couple of years, SFG is available online. That should continue this year also. However, whether offline or online, you have to strictly attempt the test between 7 - 8 am. That sense of strict discipline is the USP of SFG. 

Thank you :D

Kuch log 85 bol rahe hain kuch 90 bol rahe hain kis par bank kiya jaaye kuch samajh nhi aa raha hai bahut tension ho rahi hai feel like doing nothing ,bhukh bhi mar gyi hai

kisi ka nahi suno [ UPSC bhi wahin bola kal ke CSAT paper me :p ] ! Tumhe lagta hai hoga continue the prep, tumhe lagta hai nahi hoga continue the prep! Just continue the prep :) [ I know this is easier said than done ] But waiting for the results and hoping that you'll be through till the results are out and continuing with your prep is gonna be of immense help IMO! [ Mere starting statement ke hisaab se aap ko mera yeh baat bhi nahi sunna chahiye :p ]
