1. No Plan 😱

Yes, you have material in front of you.
Yes, you have to revise it all.
No, you can't randomly wake up everyday for 100 days to execute this

2. CSAT, what? 🤪

Every year, the 'most deserving' candidates in the final list are not able to make it to the final list.

Hell, they don't even make it to Mains. Why? CSAT.

5. No PYQs 🤨
