Daily CA: newspaper + one monthly compilation – is that enough?
3
Accepted answer
I tried two papers for a month and burnt out. One paper + monthly revision is what I could actually keep. For economy I add the budget and survey when they come out, not every small capex headline.

Right now I do one newspaper in the morning (not making 8-page notes) and I was planning to revise from a monthly compilation. Some people run two newspapers plus daily videos and I'm not sure that is sustainable with a job.
For prelims + mains, has a 'newspaper + monthly + PYQ' combo been enough for you, or do I need a daily answer-writing CA routine from day one?

enough if you link it back to the syllabus. otherwise newspaper becomes a habit with no output. I jot one line under GS2/GS3 headings, that's it.

This is reassuring. I was about to subscribe to three daily notes. Will stick to one paper.

For mains, I add a short weekly essay/example bank from the same monthly, not a new source. otherwise CA has no end.

Yes – I'll try a Friday example bank. Thanks all.

also don't ignore the places-in-news / map part of monthlies. those keep showing up in prelims.
