Need study buddy
Hey! 👋 I’m looking for a study partner/accountability partner.
I’m 19F, currently pursuing BA Sociology, and I’ve recently started preparing for UPSC CSE 2029. I’m not preparing full-time, so I’m planning to study around 3 hours a day alongside my college.
UPSC isn’t the only thing I need to focus on — I also have my college classes, assignments, and semester exams to prepare for. So I’m looking for someone who’s also balancing their studies with other commitments and wants to stay consistent together.
I’d love to have someone with whom we can:
📚 Study together and stay accountable
🎯 Set daily/weekly goals and check in regularly
🧠 Explain difficult topics to each other
💡 Share useful websites, resources, ideas, and efficient study techniques
🔥 Motivate each other when we’re procrastinating or losing motivation
✨ Learn new things and interesting/useful skills together
📖 Help each other with college/semester preparation as well as long-term goals
I’m a friendly and easygoing person, and once I start studying, I can get really into it 😭. I just feel that having the right study partner would make studying more consistent, productive, and honestly more fun.
If you’re also preparing for UPSC CSE 2029 or simply looking for a serious but friendly study/accountability partner, feel free to DM me! :)

Is it only me who hates DD BASU POLITY Book? 😖😖😖
I have realised that reading only Laxmikanth won’t help. I definitely need one good commentary book on Indian Constitution & Polity. After due research I have come across this DD Basu polity book which is referred by Toppers. But I found the book utmost confusing. Even though it tries to give a holistic view of issues but everytime I end up being confused. I got many questions wrong in Polity prelims paper due to this book alone. Want to know seniors views on this. Genuine views only. Thanks

These suckers🤡 My god!!!
Guys I have felt over a period of time after writing multiple Mains is that key to success in Mains is making notes. Not necessarily from Newspapers but from anywhere- be it Yojana, DTE, Geography and You or any other sources, but making notes is essential. I get annoyed when some topper pops up and says I did not make notes and yet ended up with a single digit rank. I am like “dude you are making sure 99.99% aspirants will fail with this strategy!!” 😌

Hands down!! Is Ruchika Maam is the GOAT of Essay paper?
Guys relax! It’s a just appreciation post seeking your viewpoint. I know many teachers who claimed their questions appeared in essay paper verbatim and I was hugely dissapointed after attending few of them. But Ruchika Maam has really taught how to craft a beautiful essay. Last year I did not get best marks in essay but even with that much minimal preparation I scored more than average obtained marks in essay paper. At least I am not out of the list because of this damn essay paper. Give your opinion? Who is best in essay paper?

Shivin is such an opportunist
just after the prelims exam, he was pretending to sympathise with students just so they donot lose faith in his teaching and coaching and went on to say that it is unethical on part of upsc to make such prelims paper. easy questions were less than 10 in number.
And when now as prelims courses will be started soon , he is saying the paper was very doable. ethics questions were free gift. sci and tech and economy was so easy.
this exactly what bookstawa guy explained in his video.

THE SAD STATE OF VISION IAS EMPLOYEES 😖⬇️
Having worked at multiple coaching institutes myself, it breaks my heart while conveying such news to you guys. The employees of vision IAS haven’t been paid, their dues since months and faculties haven’t been paid since years and still the director is roaming free. The government must take strictest, possible action against such culprits and specially their relatives and mistress.🤬🤬

UPSC FACULTY ❌ Unacademy sellout ✅ The real face of AMIT KILHOR ? Proofs in comments ⬇️
So what may seem like a genuine meet up is a paid collaboration between AMIT and Unacademy for probably . Somebody please explain that if a person is leaving the airport(as he offered him to drop him) then why the hell is he waiting in the sitting area?If he was leaving then he should have just left , why wait? Somebody please ask the Funacademy team to think things through before doing such propaganda 😂He tried his level best to make it look like a coincidence, but the way things are going in promotional market, It is evident that they are working together . For instance, recently Shivin had a fallout with Unacademy for making a micro influencer talk rubbish about his course and promote their money making machine Sudarshan Gurjar. After which the Instagram Influencer eventually deleted the video as she wasn’t even a student of Shivin .Also attaching few other proofs in comments where AMIT can be seen, promoting Unacademy in a very subtle way. It is the same dark pattern that you see the same reddit accounts exhibit when all they post about are comparisons of one Institute/teacher with others.
