Mains 2019 Preparation and Discussion Thread
Now that 1 week is over, it is time to shift focus to Mains. With barely 103 days left there is no time to waste.
@Lostsame here bhai
@HartshornePaper 2 only map was tough. Paper 1 toughest in last 3 years. I don't know how you found it easy.
@HartshorneBhai may be you are really good in geo. Paper 1 was definitely not easy. And in both papers most of the people I spoke to said that it was difficult to write specific and relevant content for the given marks. Yeah manageable but definitely not easy.
@Shubz16 aane sach baat hai; could not agree more !!
@Ravs
Bro in subjective papers, there are multiple valid interpretations. MoreOver this year questions were specific, so I don't know how effective representations would be.
@TeddyWestsideUpsc has published annual reports for 2016 and 2017... u can refer them for latest info.
@vvvikas0078212maybe I attempted 2 from section b and just 1 from section a so I felt easy. Also I am saying for questions which I had attempted.
@Rand_Al_Thorhave you spoken to all 3.5k aspirants? Come on only 100 will score more than 280 and only 130-150 will make the list.
@sharmarajiv9888818bhai pichle 5 saal ka sabse tough paper tha
@chintanmanan2017 se bhi zada?
@sharmarajiv9888818ha bhai
@chintanmanan
Nothing bro... U r on rock of truth. Donot worry....
@Raja123vision paper 3 analysis per se was okayish. But they make a mockery of people who took the exam by labelling all questions as easy. While we too resort to armchair analysis in general, such labelling coming from teachers who are mostly ex aspirants is slightly rich.
@paranthapijjaWith experience wisdom comes but here it seems they have developed arrogance and that too with 3 weeks of internet surfing lol
@paranthapijja
Paper 3 was in no way easy. Economy questions were less where people used to score heavily. Many difficult questions like cyberdom
@TeddyWestside2017 me only 1065 ppl with history opt....2019 tk aur kam hue rahenge bcuz i was not able to see many ppl with history in 2019 compared to 2018.
History ke liye half classroom alloted thi
Psir ke liye 3 aur socio ke liye 4
There is a wide divergence is the view point of coaching guys vs UPSC examiner.They are people with very basic knowledge and look for simple points directly addressing the core , all the hi-fi uber analysis is likely to be irrelevant if the examiner isn't aware.
I mean Kataria got 117 in GS3 (near highest) and got only 60s in vision should give you an idea.
@paranthapijjaDid they say live on video the questions were easy? Damn!
That is obviously true. The point is that there should be a general consensus on what could be those general points that the UPSC examiner seeks.@paranthapijja
