For all those who are writing mains tomorrow — All the very B | Shubham Kumar: Strategy and Notes for UPSC(CSE)

For all those who are writing mains tomorrow —

All the very Best for small small battles that you will have to fight in every paper to conquer mains.

There will be many questions where you won’t be that confident. But remember that you can score well in GS by attempting 10-12 questions well and then writing average answers for 8 questions.

Few last minutes tips

1) Never JUDGE your performance in the examination hall itself- you might score better in paper where you feel that it didn’t went well

2) Scoring in GS/Optional is RELATIVE.
So you have to outperform other people rather than writing best answers for every questions. If the paper is tough than it is tough for everyone

3) Don’t discuss anything between the break. Utilise the break to cool and relax yourself and REVISE your short notes.
Remind yourself what to write and how you are going to attempt the paper

4) It is advisable to complete the paper somehow. It is always good to devote equal time (11min for 15marker and 7min for 10 marker).

5) Eat light but energy rich food. Can drink tea/coffee- rejuvenate yourself- can take 10min Power Nap !!

Those things which are not under your control, leave it to almighty

All the best once again !!
You WILL do well
