[Results] Prelims 2020 Over - Gearing for 2021

Because of the corona virus issue? If it does not happen then worst affected will be people whose interview is stuck, around 600-700 such people I think are yet to appear for their interview.


@neyawn sir and others, what is your take?

This is the official Thread for discussion of Prelims Postponement, Please do not create new threads for the same.

I scored 106.67 in simulator and I believe I made a few silly mistakes which is very frustrating. I found the test to be moderate but it seems everyone is finding it easy so fml, I guess

@abhinandanpd018869 Governor can suspend, remit or commute a death sentence. He cannot PARDON a death sentence. Only prez can do so

only those who have scored well are finding the paper easy( obviously)..anyway you don't need to compete with them.... i have noticed that in any mock, there are 3 divisions -

1.who anyway score 130+ irrespective of the mock

2.who are 10-15 marks above the cut off

3. who are hanging in the trenches around the border.

and in all the mocks I have written, the cutoff invariably lies  in the 3rd category...the differentiating trait between the 2nd and the 3rd is the  quantum of  silly mistakes ..avoid them

if you are in the 3rd category, you are lucky , for you know what needs to be done.

Hey.

I am taking much time even in mock tests. Any (practical) suggestions to read through fast.

And, does doing paper in rounds gets implemented in actual exam properly, I was not able to follow it.

got it now,,but still confuses me.. if governor remits a death penalty to less severe one this in other word itself means pardoing one from dp.

if he suspends a dp he is violating art 21...

pls clarify friends

Just to clarify, you've mixed up remission and commutation. Remission doesn't change the character of the punishment, it changes the quantum. Commutation is what changes the quality or character of the punishment. Now to your question. If a person is pardoned, then they would have to face no punishment at all and it would be seen as if he/she had never committed the crime. In the case of commutation, the person would still have to face some form of punishment and it would stay in his/her record.

Hey, there are others here better suited than I am to offer advice, but I got less than I expected today too. It’s okay, we’re not out of the game. Also see first para for some comfort.

@MarcusA Thanks a ton. Getting anxious is holding me back from analysing those silly mistakes and work on them. Just need to get a grip on myself.
