I hope maza aaya hoga aaj GS3 Orientation mein 😛

Pressure can do things to people. 30 Runs, 30 balls, 6 wickets in hand. And South Africa faltered.

Mental Strength is everything!

I know, results ki anxiety hai. It’s normal. In the comments of this post, please pen down your thoughts. Can upload a video tomorrow morning talking about this uncertainty. Let’s talk, express yourself openly.

Dealing with anxiety at this time.
Let's talk.

I've closed the group for any chats, the reason is told in the video.

I know this is a difficult time. There’s no easy solution. All I know is, given time, it will be okay. I know it doesn’t feel like that right now.

Even with the best of efforts, the hardest of preparations, life is sometimes just too cruel. I don’t know what to say. I can say that I will help in every way possible, but I know that it’s never going to be enough. All I can say is, take some time to process it. We will deal with it. But there’s no easy way out. I will do everything I can to help, but today is going to be difficult and tough.

Here if you need me.

Hello All!
3 Things :

1. If you are someone who has made it through prelims 2024, Mudit Jain sir (ex-IRS, ex-IPS) and I have made a free 'master mains 2024' initiative where we will be happy to help you with strategy, planning, answer writing and other related issues. To join this initiative, please fill this form : https://forms.gle/BwNjvuACLJyyj1ms8
(PLEASE BE SURE TO CLICK THE TG LINK AFTER YOU SUBMIT THE FORM, It will appear after you submit the form)

2. If you are someone who hasn't made it through this prelims and wishes to give the next attempt, as previously announced, I will be having a free 6 month long 'Mains Ready by December' programme where I will help you with the entire ecosystem around mains prep by december. If you're willing to work hard and want to self study, you can join the group here : https://t.me/+ecDiKM2N_mhjMjNl
Mains Ready by December starts on 10th July.

3. If you are someone who wishes to exit the preparation and look for an alternative, I will be bringing on people on youtube who have exited this cycle and gone on to clear state PCS, UGC NET, RBI grade B, people who have gone on to work in startups, work in public policy or back to their parent disciplines. I hope this will help in charting a path forward.

More details on all 3 things in the video tomorrow morning.

Hello all!
This is the strategy followed by Ritika Verma (AIR 25, CSE 23) for Gs-3.
She has increased her marks from 70 in 2022 to 104 in 2023.

This video is all about understanding the mains syllabus and understanding interlinkages in it. It should be an eye opener!

This video explains how notes are to be made for mains, specifically. I've shown my own process of making notes too.
Hope this helps!

Hello All!
Since Morning, I have been overwhelmed with the birthday wishes. I would like to thank you all from the bottom of my heart for this. I was looking back over the last year and I realised how last year at this time, I was teaching and planning for my foundation course at LBSNAA. It's been a roller coaster of a year, from going to LBSNAA, to seeing so many of my students from last year make it to the final list, and to finally coming back and taking the decision to be a full time teacher. I'd just like to say that I am immensely grateful, because without the support and love that you've shown me, this would never have been possible. Thank you, for everything.

Now, as a small token of appreciation for the immense appreciation you've given me over the last year, I'd just like to announce two things.

Firstly, in the MMP+ July batch, a lot of people were asking for me to take write smart sessions live, again. Your wish, as always, is my command. I will be taking my sessions of Write Smart in MMP+ July Batch live as well.

Secondly, in the free initiative, mains ready by december, a lot of you were facing issues with regards to ethics content. By tonight, I will be uploading comprehensive notes for ethics, that will be available for all to download. Will share the link soon.

Again, I am immensly, immensly grateful for everything. Looking forward to the next year, I promise I will continue to work even harder, to ensure that my vision of quality content with affordability and free guidance can play a small part in making this challenging journey easy for you.

Thank you.

Always in your debt,
Shivin.

Hello all!
A lot of people have said that they’re facing issues with discipline and consistency. (I’m also a part of this list). I’m thinking of coming up with a regular system for this using forest and tide. So whatever questions you have with regards to this, please let me know in the comments of this post. Video will be up by tomorrow morning.

Thanks :)

Studying is boring. This is how we can maintain discipline, productivity and consistency at this time!
