Everyone knows that preparation can be really lonely. If you're a dropper then you must have had tasted that bitterness. Whether you're doing offline coaching or online , it can still be lonely. I've tasted both online and offline coaching and I know that it can be lonely in both scenarios.

Even in offline coaching , even in a room full of people ,  you still feel lonely and it's not because they're bad or you're bad. It's just because you know that this is platonic and this is nothing. Everyone is here for competition nd nobody actually gives a fuck about you. Even if they're asking you how you are or how your prep is going , it often feels like it's just a way of keeping tabs , you know? 

Keeping tabs on how much one is scoring , how much they're studying , what kind of questions they're doing ,  whether they're ahead of you or behind you. All those things , so it almost feels like everyone's just keeping tabs on each other.

And even if you're doing online coaching , sitting inside your room , it's still really lonely. You're just there with your books and everything. Even when your mind constantly wanders off to different thoughts , you have to keep bringing it back to whatever topic you're studying.

 I've seen a lot of people do this study partner thing here. And even though I'm really judgy about it and I don't think it works even a bit , I'm open to discussion. If anyone has any point of view to put out , please do so. I'd genuinely like to know if somebody has benefited from this and whether it's worth giving a try.

Even though I'm very prejudiced about it and definitely don't really like the concept , I just want to know more points of view on this particular thing.

What's your view on having a study partner during prep?
