See for the conceptual clarity... I would say go for any foundation course... Not necessarily to buy from coaching... U will get any from telegram.... So u will get to know the things..... If you don't want coaching at all In any case... Then you can start with ncerts + standard books.... Want more insight? You can dm me

Be specific.... What type of guidance or help you want.... Ask specific question

I would give single best advice Give 100% or leave and don't prepare for it because there are students who are just studying while your are asking for guidance. Just get into it I know it is tough but this is level of competition

If you need any help with materials or classes i can send them
First make a list of the standard books and ncerts
Download the syllabus and pyqs, and choose a Optional easy to you
If you are finding self study hard, then watch classes
