[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?

@Koro-Sensei Hey, thanks for the answer. How many did you attempt and do attempt usually?

Thanks for asking!

Attempted 96 qns, usually attempt anywhere between 94-98. I leave questions where I cannot eliminate any of the options which is usually art&culture

Getting around 135(min) to 140(max) according to various keys.....paper was lengthy and tricky.It can be safely concluded that upsc wants to eliminate coaching. But what I feel is that this randomness in exam, will work opposite of upsc thought process.Vagueness and randomness leads to more proliferation of coachings.

90 as per byju 98 as per forum....any tips guy?

reserve tranche will it be called a credit? as it is an obligation and can be withdrawn first during emergency without having to pay interest?

Attempted 76 (as usual, in my attempt range), getting 109.33 from ShankarIAS. But I am doubtful of the Right to vote being a minister. I think it is A because the statement never said ALL eligible to vote can be made a minister. It only said those who are eligible to vote can be made a minister, so yes, if the age is 25+, he can be made a minister. Hence, answer should be A (would give me +2.66 too, lol).

For rukmabhai case, look up page 237 plassey to partition. Also check https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rukhmabai. The case had nothing to do with education

This is the only one wrong in shankars key.
