It has a different writing style than GS123. Here point maximization per se isn't the goal. Why do I say so? Wrote two mains: scored in the same avg-ish band (110-114)
In 2024, I wrote ALL section A in paras. Scored 114. To contextualize this score: I picked up Ethics after Pre that year + must have scored 0 in one Sec A for misinterpretation/ factually i…

Marks = Completion x Quality
If struggling with completion, see if:
1. Leaving <50% 3rd page in 15m helps. Aim to finish the 15m answer in 2.5ish page: potentially save 5 pages and ~15 min overall!
2. Preselect questions to be compromised as you go through the paper (which you know less: let's say 2x10, 2x15). Attempt at the end; even if compromised or left, doesn't hurt as much as leaving questions yo…

Back your prep, trust your instincts, and control the controllables. That's what matters in the endgame. All the very best!

Due to some pressing family commitments, I haven't been as active here recently as I’d hoped.
Some of you had reached out for a few last-min suggestions, so I thought I'd capture a few thoughts at one place for others as well. Hopefully, they’re still timely enough to add value. Best of luck with everything. Chardi kala!

In the final weeks leading up to Mains ’24, I wasn't just juggling revision, I was running pillar to post between physiotherapists and chiropractors, desperate for any quick backpain fix that would let me sit at my desk for just a few more hours.

If possible, do come after watching the open workshop posted on YT. That way, we can skip the basics and double-click on the finer aspects that actually move marks :)

Showing the 12 most recent of 20 posts we hold for @amanaloon. View and reaction counts are the latest single reading for each post, not a live figure, and a recent post is still accumulating both. A view count marked ≈ was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it — t.me prints views in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so ≈1,200,000 means somewhere between 1,150,000 and 1,249,999. Unmarked counts are exact. Text is reproduced from the public post preview and truncated for length.
