How to start Mains Answer writing? | *secret trick revealed*

[@i_play_chess_8564]

I have a few doubts (I am about to give my first mains), if any veteran can pls clear them
1- My 150 words answer is filled in one page only, while in most topper's copies they utilise the whole space with very big handwriting and leaving space between lines. Do I have to practice writing 150 words in 2 pages?
2- I run out of content in 250 word answers, so i extend my points and explain them (para type answers, examiner won't read)
3- is it necessary to use block diagrams or flowcharts or stuff like that, can't i just write the answers in bullet points.
4- It is almost impossible to write 20 answers in 3 hours, so should i practice on my writing speed or should i focus on my content building (I'm short on both😅)
5- How on earth are toppers able to answer questions on random S&T, art and culture, world history? No matter how much you study answering 20/20 questions seems so difficult.
6- due to all this pressure and overthinking i haven't been able to focus much, I'm studying like 2 hours a day only which is very bad, i feel like i cant do this, I just wanna get it over with.

Sir just a suggestion- In Write unlimited course, apart from time validity (2month/1year) we can make it on per answer evaluation. Where an aspirant can pay for evaluation of just 1answer or as he/she wishes.

[@gauravw1704]

Should we write answers by looking in book or write without looking at book ??

[@UPSCprepIAS]

Try without looking to begin with.
If you start with looking at the book from day 1 - it will just prevent you from ever learning to push your brain for ideas.
