[Results] Prelims 2020 Over - Gearing for 2021

To all my friends who didn’t clear prelims this time :

1. Take a break of 3 -4 days or maybe a week.

2. Don’t be hard on yourself , watch a movie / television series ( Mirzapur Season 2 is out )

3. A common mistake all aspirants do after failing prelims is that they again start studying for prelims . Don’t do that.

4. It is the right time to study for mains - complete the mains test series whichever you have joined( don’t sell it rather prepare and give each test) , add and increase your content , every Sunday write an essay , do complete GS4 , complete the static portion of GS - post independence , study world history ( Hitler will be responsible for World War 2 next year also ) , keep writing answers - TLP / SECURE INITIATIVE/ AWFG whichever you prefer.

5. Do complete optional - entire paper 1 should be written in your own hands , make short notes of everything you study .

6. Right time for prelims prep will start from January 2021 - joins any test series / SFG , study the ncerts , give the test and make notes from it , don’t neglect previous years paper .

Till then keep studying for mains , prepare well , talk to your parents , every evening go for a long walk , wake up early in the morning if possible then at 4a.m. , do some meditation , take care of your health.
