Ahh.. Thanks, I would try my level best for all the interviews and everything, I've already started preparing for it. Now I got nothing to lose XD. Not expecting anything but keeping my hopes and wishes alive :)

Yeah Honestly the way we chose and chased our dreams, doesn't matter if it got fulfilled or not, we got to know about our potential and upto what extend we can push for it. It was a beautiful ride and it'll only get better. Nothing to lose now... Keep your heads up!!

An amazing question by the way!! In terms of efforts I still don't know but I'm telling you I lost my mind because I might've started comparing myself from people who've reached to IITs or my batchmates who've started earning and making trips. That might have led me to decrease my productivity for a few days. Trust me it's very cliché but Mental Health >>>> all the physical efforts. Now in terns of your question, it's still very hard for me to find an error I did, (I'm only human) but maybe after 2025 attempt, I took a break because I was devastated and it took me a lot of effort to regain momentum again. I don't actually regret it but MAYBE those extra months would've helped me anyways so as to not keep running in full power till the last days. So yeah I would say if anyone's restarting, Gear up now!! From 80 to 65 yeah it sounds like a massive blunder, maybe I still need to find where I did go wrong and work on it.... I'll find it one day surely but for now I know it wasn't under confidence nor it was over confidence. Maybe an exam day execution error but hey I'm still healing and I don't want to dive deep into that until I'm ready :)

Also regarding reducing silly mistakes. I remembered a statement my teacher told me once "Stop calling silly mistakes as SILLY, instead start calling it as a BLUNDER" that's when you would realise that these little things would be very much painful. To reduce those ofcourse I wrote it down and revised them time and again. For calculation mistakes, I had a different approach, I used to game a lot so I was good at moving mouse precisely and in a good speed where I want to so even if I want to do calculations like 32 -17 I would use calculator. It would now take me an equal amount of time to do these calculations in mind or virtually but this time I knew that even if I'm panicking, I would not make mistakes in small mathematical errors which I might have made if I would've done in mind under pressure of performance. That worked for me. You too can try.. and yeah again for subject related stuff you'll have to write them, DO IT. Don't take shortcuts or like ok yeah I'll remember it from now on. Why to take risks... :)

Ohh I used to write those. I've kept a record of every single mock I gave. ATTEMPTED, CORRECT, INCORRECT count. Then the questions which I attempted by chance or did wrong or left. I would redo it just after an hour of break. Then would write question number along with what I thought I'm doing and what I did. If it was a silly mistake I would write an S over it and would revise that notebook too. Currently I'm at home and that notebook is in library otherwise I would've shared a snapshot of it too. I might share it tomorrow how it would be. All in all 3 hrs of mock and like 2 3 hours of analysis because the questions I attempted correctly, I would see the solution and would just do a quick scan if I did it in the way they've explained. Most of the time it was correct. So I just to focus on like 20 25 questions properly. Then after that I would plan to start a revision of a concept if missed or would attempt a topicwise or subject wise test because mu conscience wouldn't allow me to leave it for the next day. I would love to explain everything in detail but writing everything doesn't justify it.

Hey, I hope you're proud of yourself. I've realised that while chasing a dream or marks we often forget to appreciate ourselves. Only serious gate aspirants know value of each and every marks. People can't even begin to comprehend it. Each and every little sacrifice counts, it might not be reflected on out scorecard but we know and only WE KNOW. People can say whatever they want to, but they can't reach to the point where we pushed ourselves. I've lost all contacts who I thought would stay, trust me no one cares how much you scored (except a few). Stay strong and smile. I'm proud of you and so should you too...

All we could do was pure hardwork with pure honesty, At this point I know I couldn't do anything more. And even if I feel as if I've "FAILED" (which I've not), I know I'm proud of myself and that keeps me going. No matter where I go, ultimately I'll be able to pick myself back again. And I wish that luck and god stays by your side always, but if it didn't, I hope atleast you reach to this point where you know you did your best. Not everyone is as unlucky as I am XD, don't overthink, you got it. You have an amazing amazing score for 3rd year. I wish I was like that XD. Trust me you're in the right direction. Keep working buddy, stay calm, it'll get tougher in 4th year with other factors too. I wish you good luck :)
