For those who cleared Prelims 2022, How to Optimize 86 odd days between Today and Mains:

About 3 months is what one gets between Prelims and Mains. With experience of 4 Mains, I can say with full confidence that these 86 days end quite quickly!

IMPORTANT FACTORS TO KEEP IN MIND: Rest, Timetable, Newspaper backlogs, Notes making, Balancing Current & Static GS, Balancing optional & GS, Multiple revisions, Answer writing practice / Tests and Regularly updating oneself with latest trend

DETAILS:

➡️ Formulate TIMETABLE. If you are joining a test series, which is much recommended, then follow its timetable. Otherwise, make your own. Without a timetable, the preparation becomes directionless. Normally, these tests begin after 10-15 days of Prelims. So plan ASAP.

➡️ Do not panic because of NEWSPAPER BACKLOG. One can read even 6-7 newspapers in a day and clear 1 month’s backlog in 4-5 days. Thereafter read newspaper on daily basis and MAKE NOTES either daily or weekly. Do not let backlog develop again.

➡️ Newspaper / Current make for GS-2 and GS-3. Let the content grow! Writing GS-2 & 3 tests in first month with not enough current build up makes no sense. This is BALANCING CURRENT & STATIC GS. Hence, in 1st month or so, prepare static GS including Essay, GS-1 and GS-4. Prepare Optional along with static GS. Write tests for Essay, GS-1 and GS-4. Meanwhile, enough content will build up for GS-2 and GS-3. Prepare these and optional. Write tests. THIS BALANCES OPTIONAL, CURRENT AND STATIC GS.

➡️ Generally, following a test series religiously would help you in revising a content 2-3 times if you prepare for and write all the tests. But 2-3 revisions are not enough. One needs 4-5-6 revisions. Accordingly, one has to make space for MULTIPLE REVISIONS in timetable. 5-6 revisions help in easily recalling 10-15 points in exam.

➡️ Also, ANSWER WRITING PRACTICE is needed apart from tests. Here focus must be on answer structure rather than clock!

➡️ Lastly, a mistake many (especially ‘veterans’) commit is not UPDATING ONESELF with trends in ‘market’. New optional notes or a trending new book can come handy!

For those who could not clear prelims:

I completely understand the pain many of you must be going through right now. I failed pre in 2016 when my career in IPS was already on the line.

➡️ Take your time in deciding whether you want to appear again or not.

➡️ Take a break for few days and if you decide to get back with it then get back with a positive mindset.

➡️ Those who could not clear but are sure of writing again, this is best time for you to consider change in optional subject if at all you need to change it. You wont get such window again.

➡️ Once you are clear about writing again, start optional and static portions of mains i.e. gs-1 and gs-4

➡️ Analyze what went wrong in prelims and change it for sure. If it was not following concise sources then follow them. If it was about not making own notes then make notes and so on.

➡️ My advice is to streamline your processes. Read concise sources and make own notes. Dont fo after shortcuts. Revise multiple times. Attempt tests amd make test notes amd revise them as well.

➡️ Do not go hard on yourself. At the end of the day this is just an exam and i know 100s of officers who are NOT ONE BIT HAPPY IN SERVICES. So not clearing CSE is not the end of road.
