Q&A (IAS PREPRATION) ************************************** What are some life hacks for a person preparing for a life determining exam like the JEE or UPSC? ******************************* answer by :Prudhvi Tej, AIR-1, IIT JEE -2011 1. Keep away from distractions. Oliver Emberton does a better task at explaining this here. If you want to follow your dreams, you have to say no to all the alternatives 2. A time table helps a lot, like a lot. Dont make frequent amends to it. Dont shift it ever, like never. No other appointments during the slot for prep. Be more of a machine. 3. A big NO for mobile, facebook, anything during slot for prep. No, not even for checking just the messages and notifications. 4. Start and End your day with prep. The first thing after waking up must be brush and then right into prep. The last thing before you sleep must be prep. No, not the Good Night message. 5. Have a good knowledge of what you HAVE to do and prefer doing only that. That mind boggling Olympiad question can wait till you finish H.C. Verma part for today or the Scroll.in article can wait till you finish History part for today. It is just fine if you didnt know about how people were pissed off during the Big Billion Day of flipkart if you are preparing for JEE. 6. Be frugal in your connected-ness. Phone, SMS, Whatsapp, FB, Twitter, Instagram, Skype, Hangouts, Woah. Choose may be THREE of them. Bottom line - Be frugal in the activities you do. Be thrifty in the finshing the syllabus.
