  • I just read the basic stuff that we read for prelims.
    I have never prepared geography, just read Mrunal's ppts before the exam.
    For world history, I read Vision material.
    Nothing specific for social issues part except mains 365.

    Wrote what was asked, relevant points, addressed all subparts, drew diagrams wherever I could (South China Sea, air masses etc).
    That was it. Nothing special, nothing fancy.

    Wrote a few lines in Krishnadevaraya question and also a few lines in West Africa question. Content wasn't that relevant in these two. In others it was fine.
    Can't honestly help much, since I didn't do anything extraordinary here. And people have got good scores. I know several with 120+. :)
    My Gs Score in 2016 are
    Gs1 98
    gs2 78
    gs3 108
    gs4 99..
    I read only current affairs and did test series should I read anything static too?
    bro u get good marks in gs -3....throw some light.......
    its below average in all papers..i dint followed separate strategy .I only read important articles from Insights,No Newspaper..and only did Gs score test series..hardly studied 3-4 hours daily..repenting now.
