2- Focus more on revision in the last 15 days. Now is the time to keep revising whatever you have read so far.
3- Now there is no special need to make notes from any kind of newspaper. But do keep an eye on the news daily. Many times questions from last-minute topics also come in the prelims.
4- While revising, make your notes from the primary source or read from those books which you have already read 2-3 times. Do not pay attention to any new source. This will increase the burden and revision will be difficult.
5- Give importance to topics related to Polity, Geography, Economy, and Environment. In History, focus on Ancient Art and Culture, Medieval and Modern History. In Modern History, After the Gandhi Period is necessary.
6- If you are weak in Maths, then practice hard for 10-12 days for CSAT. This will help a lot and you will be able to score better marks.
7- Do look at the pattern of Reading Comprehension. For this, you can take help from previous years' papers. You will get an idea of the pattern from them.
8- Revise for 5-6 hours daily, keep 2 hours reserved for the test, and prepare for 1-1.30 hours for Current Affairs. (Revise Current Affairs notes again and again).
9- There is a lot of study material in the UPSC market. Now stay away from new sources at the last moment. This can increase confusion.
10- If you want, you can note the mistakes made in the mock test in short bullet points in one place. This will help them improve.
