Partial drop AMA / GMeet?
Hey guys, I've been getting a lot of DMs about partial drops after my recent posts, so thought I'd ask here instead of trying to answer everyone individually.
For context, I'm a successful partial dropper from JNTUH. I joined JNTUH, prepared for BITSAT alongside college, and ended up at BITS Hyderabad MSc Economics this year.
But I want to say this upfront: partial drop is MUCH harder than it looks from the outside. I had also thought I'd just manage college and study 3–4 hours a day on the side. That didn't exactly happen. There were months where I barely studied, and I had to restart my preparation pretty late. I still managed to pull it off, but I wouldn't want people to look at my result and assume that partial drops are easy or that it'll automatically work out if they put in some effort.
There are also a lot of things that are difficult to explain properly over DMs managing college, deciding whether it's actually worth leaving your current college, what happens when preparation goes off track, how much time you realistically have, what I'd do differently, and who should actually consider a partial drop in the first place.
So I'm thinking of doing a GMeet tomorrow evening or this weekend for anyone who's interested. We can have an open discussion and you guys can ask whatever you want instead of me writing 20 different paragraphs in DMs.
If enough people are interested, I'll organise it and post the time/link here.
Would you guys be interested in a GMeet tomorrow evening or weekend? Or would you rather I make a detailed post instead?
If you're interested in the GMeet, just comment interested or something below so I can get an idea of how many people would join.
