All this costs $11.

I would like to tell my fellow aspirants that one mistake I made was that I had wasted all my mocks last year because I thought I was competing with other people's scores. DON'T DO THAT. You are competing with yourself even though you have rivals. Different things. So, Take your time and give mocks only after having some confidence by completing some course and some sectionals. You need practice before mocks. The aforementioned tips will help you. Don't fret. You have 5 months :)

RC Practice - 8th July

It is frequently assumed that the mechanization of work has a revolutionary effect on the lives of the  people who operate the new machines and on the society into which the machines have been  introduced. For example, it has been suggested that the employment of women in industry took  them out of the household, their traditional sphere, and fundamentally altered their position in  society. In the nineteenth century, when women began to enter factories, Jules Simon, a French  politician, warned that by doing so, women would give up their femininity. Friedrich Engels,  however, predicted that women would be liberated from the “social, legal, and economic  subordination” of the family by technological developments that made possible the recruitment of  “the whole female sex into public industry.” Observers thus differed concerning the social  desirability of mechanization’s effects, but they agreed that it would transform women’s lives. Historians, particularly those investigating the history of women, now seriously question this  assumption of transforming power. They conclude that such dramatic technological innovations as  the spinning jenny, the sewing machine, the typewriter, and the vacuum cleaner have not resulted in  equally dramatic social changes in women’s economic position or in the prevailing evaluation of  women’s work. The employment of young women in textile mills during the Industrial Revolution  was largely an extension of an older pattern of employment of young, single women as domestics. It  was not the change in office technology, but rather the separation of secretarial work, previously  seen as an apprenticeship for beginning managers, from administrative work that in the 1880’s  created a new class of “dead-end” jobs, thenceforth considered “women’s work.” The increase in  the numbers of married women employed outside the home in the twentieth century had less to do  with the mechanization of housework and an increase in leisure time for these women than it did  with their own economic necessity and with high marriage rates that shrank the available pool of  single women workers, previously, in many cases, the only women employers would hire. Women’s work has changed considerably in the past 200 years, moving from the household to the  office or the factory, and later becoming mostly white-collar instead of blue-collar work.  Fundamentally, however, the conditions under which women work have changed little since before  the Industrial Revolution: the segregation of occupations by gender, lower pay for women as a  group, jobs that require relatively low levels of skill and offer women little opportunity for  advancement all persist, while women’s household labor remains demanding. Recent historical  investigation has led to a major revision of the notion that technology is always inherently  revolutionary in its effects on society. Mechanization may even have slowed any change in the  traditional position of women both in the labor market and in the home. 

1. Which of the following statements best summarizes the main idea of the passage? 

(A) The effects of the mechanization of women’s work have not borne out the frequently held  assumption that new technology is inherently revolutionary. 

(B) Recent studies have shown that mechanization revolutionizes a society’s traditional values and  the customary roles of its members. 

(C) Mechanization has caused the nature of women’s work to change since the Industrial Revolution. 

(D) The mechanization of work creates whole new classes of jobs that did not previously exist. 

2. It can be inferred from the passage that, before the Industrial Revolution, the majority of  women’s work was done in which of the following settings? 

(A) Textile mills 

(B) Private households 

(C) Offices 

(D) Factories 

3. It can be inferred from the passage that the author would consider which of the following to be  an indication of a fundamental alteration in the conditions of women’s work? 

(A) Statistics showing that the majority of women now occupy white-collar positions

(B) Interviews with married men indicating that they are now doing some household tasks 

(C) Surveys of the labor market documenting the recent creation of a new class of jobs in electronics  in which women workers outnumber men four to one 

(D) Census results showing that working women’s wages and salaries are, on the average, as high as  those of working men 

4. The passage states that, before the twentieth century, which of the following was true of many  employers? 

(A) They did not employ women in factories. 

(B) They tended to employ single rather than married women. 

(C) They employed women in only those jobs that were related to women’s traditional household  work. 

(D) They resisted technological innovations that would radically change women’s roles in the family. 

5. It can be inferred from the passage that the author most probably believes which of the  following to be true concerning those historians who study the history of women? 

(A) Their work provides insights important to those examining social phenomena affecting the lives  of both sexes. 

(B) Their work can only be used cautiously by scholars in other disciplines. 

(C) Because they concentrate only on the role of women in the workplace, they draw more reliable  conclusions than do other historians. 

(D) While highly interesting, their work has not had an impact on most historians’ current  assumptions concerning the revolutionary effect of technology in the workplace. 

6. Which of the following best describes the function of the concluding sentence of the passage? 

(A) It sums up the general points concerning the mechanization of work made in the passage as a  whole. 

(B) It draws a conclusion concerning the effects of the mechanization of work which goes beyond the  evidence presented in the passage as a whole. 

(C) It restates the point concerning technology made in the sentence immediately preceding it. 

(D) It qualifies the author’s agreement with scholars who argue for a major revision in the  assessment of the impact of mechanization on society.

Hello PG folks


So, I have noticed a pattern in my behaviour.

For the first 3-4 days, I stick to my schedule and study properly.

Around the 4th or 5th day,  kind of get bored of the routine and I get this urge to indulge in distractions(uff ye Dopamine)  and end up wasting a lot of time(plus the guilt trip).


Looking for a solution to this problem. Please let me know how do you manage this urge.


P.S - I have tried meditation, self talk, exercise(not vigorous though).

        Gym is not an option for me in these times.

SJMSOM, IIT Bombay it is!! Thanks to everyone for the updates, memes and what not 💯💯

Summary question from CAT 2020 slot 3  

 Brown et al. (2001) suggest that ‘metabolic theory may provide a conceptual foundation for much of ecology just as genetic theory provides a foundation for much of evolutionary biology’. One of the successes of genetic theory is the diversity of theoretical approaches and models that have been developed and applied. A Web of Science (v. 5.9. Thomson Reuters) search on genetic* + theor* + evol* identifies more than 12000 publications between 2005 and 2012. Considering only the 10 most-cited papers within this 12000 publication set, genetic theory can be seen to focus on genome dynamics, phylogenetic inference, game theory and the regulation of gene expression. There is no one fundamental genetic equation, but rather a wide array of genetic models, ranging from simple to complex, with differing inputs and outputs, and divergent areas of application, loosely connected to each other through the shared conceptual foundation of heritable variation. 




  • Genetic theory has a wide range of theoretical approaches and application and is foundational to evolutionary biology and Metabolic theory has the potential to do the same for ecology.
  • Genetic theory has evolved to spawn a wide range of theoretical models and applications but Metabolic theory need not evolve in a similar manner in the field of ecology.
  • Genetic theory has a wide range of theoretical approaches and applications and Metabolic theory must have the same in the field of ecology.
  • Genetic theory provides an example of how a range of theoretical approaches and applications can make a theory successful.

RC Practice - 9th July

Although training in ethics is currently provided by medical schools, this training relies  heavily on an abstract, philosophical view of ethics. Although the conceptual clarity provided  by a traditional ethics course can be valuable, theorizing about ethics contributes little to the  understanding of everyday human experience or to preparing medical students for the  multifarious ethical dilemmas they will face as physicians. A true foundation in ethics must  be predicated on an understanding of human behavior that reflects a wide array of  relationships and readily adapts to various perspectives, for this is what is required to develop  empathy. Ethics courses drawing on narrative literature can better help students prepare for  ethical dilemmas precisely because such literature attaches its readers so forcefully to the  concrete and varied world of human events. The act of reading narrative literature is uniquely suited to the development of what might be  called flexible ethical thinking. To grasp the development of character, to tangle with  heightening moral crises, and to engage oneself with the story not as one’s own but  nevertheless as something recognizable and worthy of attention, readers must use their moral  imagination. Giving oneself over to the ethical conflicts in a story requires the abandonment  of strictly absolute, inviolate sets of moral principles. Reading literature also demands that  the reader adopt another person’s point of view –that of the narrator or a character in a  story—and thus requires the ability to depart from one’s personal ethical stance and examine  moral issues from new perspectives. It does not follow that readers, including medical professionals, must relinquish all moral  principles, as is the case with situational ethics, in which decisions about ethical choices are  made on the basis of intuition and are entirely relative to the circumstances in which they  arise. Such an extremely relativistic stance would have as little benefit for the patient or  physician as would a dogmatically absolutist one. Fortunately, the incorporation of narrative  literature into the study of ethics, while serving as a corrective to the later stance, need not  lead to the former. But it can give us something that is lacking in the traditional philosophical  study of ethics—namely, a deeper understanding of human nature that can serve as a  foundation for ethical reasoning and allow greater flexibility in the application of moral  principles. 

1. Which one of the following most accurately states the main point of the passage? 

(A) Training in ethics that incorporates narrative literature would better cultivate flexible  ethical thinking and increase medical students’ capacity for empathetic patient care as  compared with the traditional approach of medical schools to such training. 

(B) Traditional abstract ethical training, because it is too heavily focused on theoretical  reasoning, tends to decrease or impair that medical student’s sensitivity to modern ethical  dilemmas. 

(C) Only a properly designed curriculum that balances situational, abstract, and narrative  approaches to ethics will adequately prepare the medical student for complex ethical  confrontations involving actual patients. 

(D) The study of narrative literature in medical schools would nurture moral intuition,  enabling the future doctor to make ethical decisions without appeal to general principles. 

2. Which one of the following most accurately represents the author’s use of the term ―moral  imagination in the third paragraph? 

(A) a sense of curiosity, aroused by reading, that leads one to follow actively the  development of problems involving the characters depicted in narratives.

(B) A faculty of seeking out and recognizing the ethical controversies involved in human  relationships and identifying oneself with one side or another in such controversies 

(C) A capacity to understand the complexities of various ethical dilemmas and to fashion  creative and innovative solutions to them 

(D) An ability to understand personal aspects of ethically significant situations even if one is  not a direct participant and to empathize with those involved in them. 

3. It can be inferred from the passage that the author would most likely agree with which one  of the following statements? 

(A) Students learn more about ethics through the use of fiction than through the use of non?fictional readings. 

(B) The traditional method of ethical training in medical schools should be supplemented or  replaced by more direct practical experience with real-life patients in ethically difficult  situations. 

(C) The failing of an abstract, philosophical training in ethics can be remedied only by  replacing it with a purely narrative-based approach. 

(D) Neither scientific training nor traditional philosophical ethics adequately prepares doctors  to deal with the emotional dimension of patients’ needs.

4. Which one of the following is most likely the author’s overall purpose in the passage? 

(A) To advise medical schools on how to implement a narrative-based approach to ethics in  their curricula. 

(B) To argue that the current methods of ethics education are counterproductive to the  formation of empathetic doctor-patient relationships. 

(C) To propose an approach to ethical training in medical school that will preserve the human  dimension of medicine. 

(D) To demonstrate the value of a well-designed ethics education for medical students. 

5. The passage ascribes each of the following characteristics to the use of narrative literature  in ethical education EXCEPT: 

(A) It tends to avoid the extreme relativism of situational ethics. 

(B) It can help insulate future doctors from the shock of the ethical dilemmas they will  confront. 

(C) It can help lead medical students to develop new ways of dealing with patients. 

(D) It requires students to examine moral issues from new perspectives. 

6. The author’s attitude regarding the traditional method of teaching ethics in medical school  can most accurately be described as 

(A) unqualified disapproval of the method and disapproval of all of its effects 

(B) reserved judgment regarding the method and disapproval of all of its effects (C) partial disapproval of the method and clinical indifference toward its effects (D) partial disapproval of the method and approval of some of its effects
