Spaced revision

Har section 1 → 3 → 7 → 16 → 35 → 80 din ke gap par wapas aata hai. Jo galat hota hai, wo jaldi wapas aata hai. Yehi cheez teesri baar farak banati hai — naya padhna nahi, purana pakka karna.

Test

No negative marking in RJS Prelims — so in the real paper, never leave a blank. Here, answer honestly: a wrong answer here is a mark saved there.

Galti ki Kitab

Toppers ka asli secret yehi hai. Har galti yahan likhi jaati hai, correction ke saath. Exam se 10 din pehle, sirf yeh page padhna hai — kuch aur nahi.

Full library · every section in this system

Read this onceThe new criminal codes renumbered almost everything. Section numbers for BNS / BNSS / BSA in this system are a teaching aid — always cross-check the number against your bare act before you write it in Mains. The concepts and the traps are solid; the numbering is the thing to verify.

Ask your tutor

Anything outside the library — ask here. Teaching happens in story form, then a check-question. Also: paste your Mains answer, judgment or charge and ask for marking.

The paper you are actually sitting

StageShapeMarksWhat it really tests
Prelims100 MCQ · 2 hrs · OMR · no negative marking100 (qualifying only)Speed and coverage. Law 70%, Hindi 15%, English 15%. Marks don't count in final merit — it is only a gate.
Mains — Law IDescriptive · 3 hrs100Civil: CPC, Contract, TP, Specific Relief, Limitation, Evidence/BSA, Hindu & Mohammedan law, Rajasthan Rent Control, Court Fees, Land Revenue, Registration, Partnership, Sale of Goods, Interpretation + order/judgment writing
Mains — Law IIDescriptive · 3 hrs100Criminal: BNS, BNSS, BSA, NI Act, JJ Act, POCSO, DV Act, POSH, Probation of Offenders, Indecent Representation, IT Act, Rajasthan Excise + charge framing / judgment writing
Mains — HindiEssay · 2 hrs50Legal, social and contemporary topics. Devanagari, formal register, विधिक शब्दावली.
Mains — EnglishEssay · 2 hrs50Same, in English. Structure and restraint beat vocabulary.
InterviewViva voce35Judicial temperament, current law, and Rajasthani dialects & social customs.
The one number that should change your strategy: final merit = Mains (300) + Interview (35). Prelims marks are thrown away. Two failed attempts usually means either the Prelims gate or thin Mains writing — not a knowledge gap. Diagnose which one it was, and spend your time there.

Where the marks hide

BucketWeight in a typical paperReturn on hours
BNS + BNSS + BSAVery heavy, and everyone is equally new to itHighest. Fresh law = fewer people with a decade of notes. This is your equaliser.
CPC + EvidenceHeavy, every yearHigh — but the Orders and Rules must be exact, not approximate.
Rajasthan local lawsSmall but almost guaranteedAbsurdly high. Rent Control, Court Fees, Land Revenue, Excise. Few candidates read them. A weekend of work, marks every year.
Hindi + English proficiency30 marks of Prelims, 100 marks of MainsVery high and routinely ignored. Essays are trainable in a way law isn't.
Judgment writing & charge framingLarge chunk of both Law papersHigh. Format is scored. You already sit in court — use it.
Landmark case namesSprinkled everywhereMedium. Names buy credibility in Mains at almost no cost.

Your advantage, stated plainly

You practise. You have watched a magistrate decide a bail application, you have seen an application under Order 7 Rule 11 argued, you have seen how a judge reacts to a badly drafted plaint. Most people writing this paper have only read about it.

That advantage only converts into marks if you write like a judge and not like an advocate. An advocate argues one side. A judge sets out the facts, frames the issue, gives the law, applies it, and passes an operative order. Every Mains answer you write from now on should have those five parts, in that order, with headings. That single habit is worth more than another twenty sections.

A week that actually works

SlotWork
Mon–Sat, morning 90 minToday's ten sections here. Read the story, say the mnemonic aloud, then close the app and write the five key points from memory.
Mon–Sat, court hoursOne live observation → one line in your Mann journal. "Today the judge rejected the application because ___". Free revision.
Mon–Sat, evening 45 minToday's test + revision queue. Every wrong answer goes into the Galti Book automatically.
Tue & Fri, 60 minOne full Mains answer, handwritten, timed. Then paste it into Ask Tutor for marking.
Wed, 30 minLanguage day. One Hindi essay skeleton, one English essay skeleton. Alternate weeks: grammar drill.
Sunday, 2 hrsFull mock · 50 Q. Then read the Galti Book start to finish. Nothing new on Sunday.
Sunday eveningOff. Properly off. Burnt-out candidates do not clear third attempts; recovered ones do.

Teesri baar

Two attempts did not go your way. Here is the honest reading of that, without sugar and without cruelty.

An exam with 44 posts and thousands of law graduates is not a test that sorts people into "capable" and "incapable". It sorts on a narrow band of preparation, on the day, under time pressure. People clear it in their fourth and fifth attempts and then sit as excellent judges for thirty years. The result of attempt one and attempt two is information, not a verdict.

And you are not starting from zero. You are starting from two full readings of this syllabus, a working knowledge of courtrooms most aspirants don't have, and a syllabus that was rewritten in 2023 — which means a large part of the field is as new to it as you are. That is a genuinely favourable position and it will not exist again.

What has to be different this time is not effort. It is almost never effort. It is retention and writing: coming back to the same section six times instead of reading forty new ones once, and putting words on paper under a clock. That is exactly what this system is built to force.

On the days it feels heavy

The 20-minute rule. On a bad day you do not do the full plan. You do twenty minutes — five sections, no test — and then you stop, and it counts as a full day. The streak matters more than the volume. Zero days are the only ones that actually cost you.
Do not compare to your own best day. Comparing today to the day you did nine hours is the fastest way to do nothing at all. Compare today to zero.
Court is not stolen time. Every hearing you sit through is revision that other candidates are paying coaching fees to simulate. Write one line about it and it becomes study.
Two failures bought you something. You know the exam hall. You know how the clock feels at the ninety-minute mark. You know which sections you always blank on. First-timers pay for that knowledge with an attempt. You already have it.

And a real note, not a motivational one: if the pressure of this is affecting your sleep, appetite or health in a way that isn't shifting, that is worth talking about with someone you trust or a professional — not because anything is wrong with you, but because a third attempt is genuinely heavy and carrying it alone makes it heavier than it needs to be.

Why you are doing this

Write it once, in your own words. Read it on the mornings you don't want to open this app.

Journal

One line a day. What you learned, what you saw in court, or how the day went.
