@bevancomI agree with you. It is possible to write answers in exam without much practice, if candidate is good in writing answers by nature. I too attempted mains without much practice, just written answers to 7 questions and only one easy.
In mains I didn't leave any questions.
Because, answer writting is my strength, since school days.
But I struggled lot to clear prelims.

I believe in content, not in answer writting practice.

Please don't bombard if someone don't agree.

@RagsFinally someone to support me.
I have always believed so but nobody believes me and instead make fun of me.
I have also found pre to be more difficult.
Best of luck and may u clear the exam.

@VivekanandSyes it is good to get interview call but for selection optional should touch 300 or increase marks in gs to 100.

@VivekanandSBhai toh average thode hua. You were assuming 360, now you are saying you will get more than 410. You can judge yourself.

@bevancomI believe you have prepared with sincerity, baki you are best judge of your preparation considering your past record. Opinion of other people shouldn't matter much to you anyway. All the best.

@AllMightstarted on 25th July 2018,did most of them by 11 feburary 2019.during that time wasted 1 week in mourning over ews quota and seats for general category being reduced(I m from general category.)During this time mugged paper 1 twice.Post pre made remaining notes of paper 2,mugged up paper 2 and then revised both papers several times.

@Ragsi was more dependent on optional and essay. I was not able to increase my score in GS in test series. After 95 increasing marks in gs becomes difficult. So i dedicated more time on optional which is more rewarding.
