    Thank you so much sir for this detailed video.
    I think the first part of the video is the most important point to consider as I can relate to it when I read 1984 by George Orwell, there you have to think about the author's view and the hidden info he's giving using your analytical skills.
    Thank you sir, will work on this 15 books now.

    How to spend 3-4 hours when you’re already working and also have to prepare for quant/ LR Di in the other 4-5 hours that are available through the day?

    • @PerennialLearner
      @PerennialLearner  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      well, then you can't prepare in a short time span beta.. it's as simple as that.. we all need to be realistic about our preparation time.. If you follow someone else's plan, you will fail..
      If your job is very hectic.. you either need to make a longer preparation plan or need to squeeze more time from your schedule by cutting down on all hobbies/friends/entertainment.. but the number of hours that need to go in.. will need to go in.. there is no shortcut.. no way to achieve more in less time, unfortunately...

      @PerennialLearner  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      exactly jaisa yahan bataaya hai vaise bachhe.. small steps are the key.. do not skip lines while reading and read a page twice if need be but try to understand the whole meaning of things.. by chance if you end up reading something that is too difficult, stop and pick something else.. and if you are reading something which is too easy for you, stop.. and pick something else..
      It's almost like gymming, you always challenge yourself but never too much..

    Sir should I read these books in pdf format or in hard copy cause many TH-camrs says that you should read in pdf format cause exam is online.

    • @PerennialLearner
      @PerennialLearner  2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      People advise that??? Oh my.. that's some next level nonsense..
      just because the exam is online doesn't mean you should do everything online.. why practice with hard copy material in that case at all?? Nobody should buy quant books or practice material.. should students do everything on laptop because they have to spend 2 hours in front of the computer on that one day... Stupidity..
      Read in a format that helps you build a habit, beta... once you have a habit, the mode and the medium won't matter...

      there is no such timeline bachhe... it's not like you have to finish 5 books in 3 months or 4.. you have to spend 3-4 hours daily with a book.. after that if you finish the books in 1 month.. good.. if you take 4 months.. still good.. but the daily time and thinking over the ideas of the book should not suffer..

    • @PerennialLearner
      @PerennialLearner  ปีที่แล้ว

      how can i beta.. I don't know your current reading proficiency.. if you are starting from almost scratch (like 90% of the country), then ideally your daily reading time should be more than just 3-4 hours... and with 3-4 hours, you shouldn't even try to finish all 15 books before CAT, but if you are already at a good level, then 3-4 hours might suffice... then depending on how good a level you are at, it might take a whole year or just 6 months to finish these books...

Still, since you are an engineer, you will have to score 99+ to get calls from old IIMs, so you better not lose your touch with numbers in these two years and better develop a healthy reading habit too..
