Trying to solve every problem at once instead of following the linked next-step path.

Troubleshooting

If the plan breaks

If you feel stuckShrink the task to one concept, ten questions, or one counselling comparison. Momentum matters more than a perfect plan.
If advice conflictsTrust official notices for dates/rules and use mock/PYQ evidence for study decisions.
If time is shortDrop low-return expansion, keep formulas/NCERT/PYQs active, and protect sleep before tests.

You can estimate rank using total candidates and percentile, but exact AIR/category rank comes only from the official result. Use any rank predictor as a planning aid, not as counselling truth.
