🪈🪈Happy Janmashtami to all aspirants!!
On this day that reminds us of Krishna’s timeless wisdom, it feels even more meaningful to reflect on effort, faith, and balance — values that matter just as much in life as they do in your exam journey.
The last few days before the CSM often feel like the most difficult stretch of the journey. Notes are scattered, revisions keep looping, and the mind keeps whispering — “Have I done enough?”
Here’s the truth: nobody feels 100% ready for the Mains. What matters now is not how many new things you read, but how calmly and clearly you use what you already know. The final days are about trusting your preparation and keeping your mind steady.
What to Do in the Last Few Days
- Revise selectively – focus on core topics, not brand-new material.
- Practice answer writing – short bursts, just to keep the flow.
- Stay balanced – eat well, sleep enough, and keep your energy stable.
- Visualize exam day – imagine yourself writing with clarity and calmness.
Krishna’s Words for These Final Days
As Krishna said in the Bhagavad Gita:
“Karmanye vadhikaraste, ma phaleshu kadachana…”
(You have the right only to your actions, never to the fruits of them.)
On this Janmashtami, this message feels even more powerful. Your only duty is effort — the results will unfold in their own time. That’s exactly what these last days before Mains demand: focus on your karma (revision and clarity), and let go of the rest.
Stay Steady, Not Stressed
Think of how far you’ve already come — from Prelims to now. That itself is proof of your discipline and strength. Walk into the exam hall with the quiet confidence that your effort is your best offering.
And once you’re done with Mains, we at Interview Edge will be right here to help you prepare for the interview stage. Don’t worry about that at all — finish this milestone first, and then we’ll move forward together.
And if at any point in these last few days you feel overwhelmed or stressed, you can always connect with us through UpLift Edge — our dedicated space to help aspirants recharge and regain balance.
Stay focused. Stay calm. Success is closer than you think.

Focus only on revision of core subjects and notes you’ve already prepared. Avoid starting brand-new material now — it will only add stress.
