Mains 2019 Preparation and Discussion Thread

any telegram group regarding mains results?

@bevancomconsider my comment too in a lighter vein if yours was supposed to be a joke. Secondly, never claimed that technicality trumps diligence, or that I have superior knowledge or xyz, I was only pointing to the sheer irony of things in your previous comment..
All of us write to our best ability and have a lot at stake here, that's why randomly putting fake figures about cutoffs and self congratulations needed to be called out.
Sow the wind, reap a whirlwind. It's that simple.
Thanks for your wishes, I wish you good luck too.

@ChampakLord Buddha was right. Desires are the root cause of sorrow.

Ye Maharashtra level ki bakchodi Kabhi Nahin dekhi Zindagi mein. Complete disregard of constitution as well as people's mandate by all parties.

Just glanced through GS papers, top 70 ka aim based on GS to mushkil lag raha, interview hi ab kismat badal sakta hai.

@Dijkstrawhat about optional?

@Dijkstrajyada glance mt kro. Nhi toh mains clear krne ki bhi umeed khatm ho jayegi

@kochikaameit is a circus and it ain't even funnaaayyyyy. It's just sad.

@paranthapijjaI was thinking that after doing so much effort, we'll have to listen to these guys only if we end up clearing the exam.

@atuljiOptional anthro , ussi se umeede hai, last time also optional was the saviour.

@zombielandAgar nahi hona hoga to nahi hoga, tab tak to apni spirit high hi rakhni hai

@Dijkstrahow was quality of answers this time compared to last year

@sat_009I feel this time I did better, especially in paper 2

@Dijkstralast time kitta score aaya tha?

@Dijkstrai have completed whole paper, but very general write up, very theoretical less case studies,
now i feel 3 15 markers , plus 1 10 marker are very general with lack of much thinkers,
fingers crossed

Guys how was public administration paper

@atulji~310
@sat_009bhai case studies are not absolute essential, if you have addressed the core then that is all that matters, I have also written few suboptimal 10 and 15 markers

@Dijkstraapki service kaunsi hai

@Dijkstralast year too i thought that will get low in paper 2 still got more, whats ur opinion, is liberal marking behind it

@sat_009I had the same feeling, wrote stratification and hierarchy completely wrong and 2 markers were almost irrelevant but still got decent marks

I personally feel that question attempted matters, archaeology questions if well attempted boosts the score
