I believe,for essay you don't have to collect extra material... Extract material out of your optionals and compulsory. Make areas like women current affairs business ad literature whatever your background and optionals are and then try to write on topics. Choose only that essay which you can write on with confidence whether it's a trite topic or not...take no risks in case
Yes I did and no specific strategy. In I law I just summarizd the book and in us history I added on to jwt book and made summaries type for myself. If you find a relevant book for any subject only make summaries
I think 15-20 days for each
Best of luck

I practiced past pprs whichever I coul find

I saw one of your reply in a thread which was about the time you spent for the preparation. That post was a little ambiguous. Did you start your preparation in August 2015? When did you join Academy Feb 2015? Kindly name the academy if you can.

Overall how many month and hours per day did you study? It is very important for some of us as we have to plan accordingly. Kindly do respond!!
