Padh lo! Just 20 days left, mister, make 'em count!
Paraphrasing Kabir Khan of Chak De! India, Inn 20 dinon ko aise jiyo ki khuda bhi tumse khud ye 20 dinn na chheen paaye.
Bhai...2 din aur kha gaye tum...kangaali me aanta geela mat karo.... Kuch tips de do...kaise kam se kam samay me jyada se jyada padha jaaye..khali peeli padh lo kehne se nhi hoga...
Muaaf karna, I was just trying to make you realise that 20 days can still make a LOT of difference if you want it to. I wish there was a 'one size fits all' approach for padhai, mister. I have a friend who says that no one can qualify this exam if they study the way I did/do. Then again, it worked for me, and hoping for something good after a few months as well.
Kya bolein tumko, batao? Specifically poocho, I'll try to help.
@messi_ronaldo : Thoda push karlo i would suggest. 12-14 hours ka schedule banaao
6 hour purana pehle ka revise karo whatever you have done. 2 ghante so jaao fir 6-8 ghanta naya padho. Ye 12-14 din tak karo. Fir last ke 6days me jo naya kia wo revise karna. I hope it helps

For GS 1- flip through spectrum in one day. World History in another one day. Bipin Chandra, again one day. Geography the 4th day. Enough. Paper done. Remember, I said 'flip' through it. You are bound to remember everything if you glance through it again. After all, you need to write about 120-150 words only, yeah?
Do your notes in 4 days, and spend 2 days for the extra topics from any ONE of the two sources for GS 2 and 3.
GS 4, another day. So till now, 11 days gone.
For the portions in the optional that are left, do the UPSC question papers of the past 5 years. Study those portions in 4 days.
You are still left with 5 days... revise anything that you are unsure of.
