A ten-minute routine

What a day with AtlasMitra looks like

Short and repeatable. The point is to see each map often enough that you can draw it from memory on exam day.

  1. 1Minute 1: the Daily 5. Answer the five cards due today. Misses come back tomorrow.
  2. 2Minutes 2–6: one sheet. Open the map for today’s chapter, physical or political, and tap every feature you can’t name.
  3. 3Minutes 7–9: one explorer. Hold a river or a peak and read its card: source, course, dams, places.
  4. 4Minute 10: save. Add the two features you found hardest to your revision list.

Questions from aspirants

Which exams is AtlasMitra useful for?

Any competitive exam with a geography section: civil services at the national and state level, defence entrances, and other government recruitment exams. It is equally useful for school and college geography.

Does it replace my textbook?

No. It is the map side of your preparation: a place to locate what you read, and a quiz that keeps it in memory.

How much time does it take each day?

The Daily 5 takes about a minute. Most people add ten minutes of exploring a sheet or a river card.

Make the map the easiest marks on the paper.
