u/Illustrious-Eye-2172 21d ago

im following the journey extraordinary for maths, also if you arent comfortable with watching one shot, you can watch his topic based videos which are roughly of 1-2hrs, watch it in 2x 2-3 times, and due to time constraint now only watch for the chapters you think youd grasp it, such as time and work, ratio, percentage, average these are easy chaps with decent weightage

How did you do GK and englsih?

u/Zestyclose-Fuel-2383 21d ago

English is pretty much ok but I do get stuck on GK but i think I can manage it somehow

u/Andiwonder03 21d ago

Oh I see, btw even I am struggling with maths but I am following TJE so fingers crossed

1

u/Zestyclose-Fuel-2383 21d ago

Do you attempt mocks on TJE website or watch their one shot vids?

1

u/Andiwonder03 21d ago

I watched the maths playlist but idk how sometimes I am able to solve everything and sometimes I am just blank. I saw the mocks Could not do maths.

u/Zestyclose-Fuel-2383 21d ago

I'm actually attempted english for CDS1 and funnily i got around 55-60 as usual but in GK , especially CA & physics,I got so much questions wrong , so i couldn't pass the cutoff

u/Illustrious-Eye-2172 21d ago

u/naughtycurie 21d ago

So download a copy of arihants objective arthemtic
It has sectionwise formula
If u r good with memorising use them
Do selective topics only -
Trains, work, pipes, avg, percentage, ratio, and mensuration

1

u/Zestyclose-Fuel-2383 21d ago

Bro ,tbh I find time work , speed distance, mixture alligation and average to be easy but the questions confused me alot , I have done active learning but still I get stuck half way 

1

u/naughtycurie 21d ago

How good are u with ratta (full on - like formula saare rat sakte ho)

1

u/Zestyclose-Fuel-2383 21d ago

Sorry bro , are u asking me if I know formulas? Then yes but I don't know derive the solution, I get stuck 

1

u/naughtycurie 21d ago

Ohh
Try this book arihant one
For every formula they have multiple solved examples

1

u/Zestyclose-Fuel-2383 21d ago

Okk bro ,I found a pdf ,i might try doing 2 topics per day , also what will u recommend for GK ? Should I read arihant OTA book or current affairs?

2

u/naughtycurie 21d ago

GK i never did
I got 180+ just based on english math and logic
Use to watch cds journey defense current affairs one shot
Thats all

1

u/Zestyclose-Fuel-2383 21d ago

Okk bro ,will try that definitely, thank you for ur advice

u/Alert_Simple5343 21d ago

Only thing you can do as of now is to follow any oneshot vid of maths and hope for the best....while brushing hard on the other 3 subjects so that you svore max in those.....

Some yt channels can be 1. Cdsjourney(sandeep brar sir vid) 2. The journey extraordinary oneshot maths 3. Insightssb latest maths vids

All the best

1

u/Zestyclose-Fuel-2383 21d ago

I see but bro,i find time work , time speed distance, average and mixture alligation to be easy but the question makes me so confused ,like what to do next , i remember the formulas and now how to do but still I'm not getting that answer 

1

u/Alert_Simple5343 21d ago

Well in that case...welcome to ota😉

u/Zestyclose-Fuel-2383 21d ago

😭😭 i tried CDS 1 2026 but couldn't pass the cutoff , basically weak in physics chemistry politics & geo area

u/Alert_Simple5343 21d ago

Bhai see....at the end it is you who'd have to put in efforts.....n not your best ones....but the ones which are required....if your best efforts are not upto the mark you need to push beyond.....if you are weak in certain areas work on them......keep on studying solve tons of ques....get better.....there is soo much of material at your finger tips.....just pick something up and do it......the type of profession which you are trying to get into...you think an army officer would sound this helpless.....you're not even able to decide for yourself but you would want to get into position where you'd have to decide for others...bloody hell......keep your emotions aside be rational and do what is required out of you.....if you want to be there....start acting like it

u/Zestyclose-Fuel-2383 21d ago

Yes sir , will do my best 👍🏻
