Advice

Hey everyone,

I need honest advice from people who’ve actually tried something similar.

My plan is:

- Do an online degree (like IGNOU/DU SOL)

- Prepare for IAS (UPSC) alongside it

- Earn part-time in Delhi using Rapido / delivery / freelancing

- Manage living costs in Delhi through this setup

Basically I want to balance:

📚 Study (IAS + degree)

💰 Part-time earning

🏠 Living independently in Delhi

My questions:

- Is this plan realistically doable or too overloaded?

- Has anyone here managed something like this successfully?

- What are the biggest mistakes I should avoid?

- Which earning option is least stressful for UPSC prep?

I’m trying to build a stable path without wasting time, so honest opinions would really help.

Thanks in advance.
