Hello all,
Last year those who were here knew that I brought a series towards the end of most anticipated topics for Prelims along with explanation. Around 18 questions came from there which was finished in around 10 classes.
This year again I am going to bring that series for all of you. Have faith in me. I guarantee you whosoever were part of Prelims Phodo for sure would be getting somewhere around 80-90 in mocks even if I assume that they are not aware of basics. Complement it with the last 10 lectures I would be taking. I guarantee you that you can easily score above 100 in prelims provided you have maintained your composure in original prelims paper. So, the schedule will be shared soon.
Take care.
Regards,
Deepak Prakash
सभी को नमस्कार,
पिछले साल जो लोग यहाँ थे, वे जानते थे कि मैं प्रीलिम्स के लिए सबसे अधिक प्रत्याशित विषयों की एक श्रृंखला लेकर आया था, साथ ही व्याख्या भी। वहाँ से लगभग 18 प्रश्न आए थे, जिन्हें लगभग 10 कक्षाओं में पूरा किया गया था।
इस साल फिर से मैं आप सभी के लिए वह श्रृंखला लाने जा रहा हूँ। मुझ पर विश्वास रखें। मैं आपको गारंटी देता हूँ कि जो भी प्रीलिम्स फ़ोडो का हिस्सा थे, उन्हें मॉक में लगभग 80-90 अंक अवश्य मिले होंगे, भले ही मैं यह मान लूँ कि उन्हें मूल बातें नहीं पता हैं। इसे मेरे द्वारा लिए जाने वाले अंतिम 10 व्याख्यानों से पूरा करें। मैं आपको गारंटी देता हूँ कि आप प्रीलिम्स में आसानी से 100 से अधिक अंक प्राप्त कर सकते हैं, बशर्ते आपने मूल प्रीलिम्स पेपर में अपना संयम बनाए रखा हो। इसलिए, शेड्यूल जल्द ही साझा किया जाएगा।
अपना ख्याल रखें।
सादर,
दीपक प्रकाश
