Mistakes to Avoid

1. Not being in the prelims mode - Not just studying, but actively thinking about what all were studied - Active recall & Avoiding distractions 
2. Not being in the MCQ Mode - active solving of PYQ
3. Overdoing Mocks because Mocks vary from PYQs - in Q. language and Q. Area
# What all to collect from mocks
. Are my concepts correct?
. Are there any new facts, add them to notes 
4. Revision and prioritising topics
5. FOMO
6. Ignoring CSAT, especially Comprehension 
7. Not in the right mindset, keeping baggage of failure(s)

RIGHT MINDSET = I'LL CLEAR PRELIMS THIS TIME
#YePrelimsLastPrelims #YPLP

What to do then?

1. Plan day ahead
2. Utilise your golden hour every day (2-3 hrs, within 15 mins of waking up)
3. Positive thoughts before starting the day 
4. Avoid distractions (phone) while studying 
5. Be accountable 
6. Steps for each subject:  PYQ>NOTES>TESTS>CA

While reading newspapers / articles or while listening to youtube / social media, I tried to pick good content for essay and ethics (My score is 125). I've collated them digitally and made sure to revise them multiple times. 

Now that I'm relieved by the essay score and elated about the ethics score, I'm more than happy to share my notes of both the papers. 

It's not too much, but those things that connected with me and touched or influenced me emotionally. I hope that this content will help those of you who think similar...

No need to get overwhelmed by all the notes circulating on Telegram these days. If you have crisp notes for last minute revision, trust it - just like I did last year. I hope, some 2026 aspirants could get an overview from these notes on Parliament (hardly 7 pages) that I made for Prelims 2024...

Crisp notes for last minute revision

One of the best strategies for CSAT at this last minute is to completely stick to PYQs. Solving PYQs and trying to understand UPSC's language in comprehension questions will definitely be rewarding. Best thing would be to devote at least 1 hour in the 2 pm to 3 pm slot everyday for CSAT. (Time to be devoted depends on your level of preparation and skill to solve CSAT paper)
