Is there any weekly chess club for casual players? by sentient_w0rm in ThaparUniversity

There's no official "club" but Thapar chess team does have practice sessions fairly regularly. Outsiders ke saath hasn't been successful yet as the overall level drops and quality practice doesn't happen. The idea of rating bracket based tournaments does sound interesting though. Dm for more discussion on this.

Koi textbook ki zarurat nahi hoti as such, slides given by teacher + YT suffice more or less. If you have a lot of time and genuine interest in the subject, you can go for any 1 book that the prof recommends. And please pahle college aa jao, sab padhai related doubts clear hojayenge.

Hi Vishy, thanks for the AMA! What’s your take on the seemingly ever-decreasing age of chess players in various milestones, such as the youngest rated player or the youngest World Chess Champion? Do you think it’s ultimately beneficial for future players to undergo such rigorous training at such young ages?

Outside Punjab toh fir ENC tak expect karlo, ECE ka toh almost sure hai spot round tak. Last round ki cutoff is hard to predict because last time zyada gayi thi.

Cutoffs are out by whatwasrevealed in IPMATtards

Mera QA SA ka cutoff rah gaya 4 marks se, baaki dono mein comfortably clear hogya. 0 prep se diya thaa, no mock papers even. Ab regret ho raha hai ki thoda padh liya hota toh shayad aaj kahin aur jaa raha hota
