First attempt first mains , started preparation last Year July after leaving corporate job.
My experience:
1. Was in tension whether I will clear pre, to my surprise I cleared even forest Pre
2. Was able to complete every paper , I believe my attempt in ethics (though completed the paper ) was average as could not find scope to write some example /VAM etc - maybe lack of practice
3. In optional , P2 could have been better , as did some silly mistakes .P1 was the best I could attempt
Overall a soul sucking process , I was thinking mains is easy , pre is tough but I was horribly wrong. But I am satisfied to write 50 pages in each of GS papers .
@tedmosby Bhai how was your optional this time ?
@tedmosby I have shared my attempt in blog u created for maths. Though mains is done and nothing can be changed now , but ur choices in P2 could have been better ( personal opinion and mostly everyone I know ) , to choose q2 from sec A and q6 from sec b is very courageous. I was shivering seeing those questions.
Anyways best of luck , baki koi baat ho , we can discuss on maths blog !
@tedmosby dhanyawad bhai , and all the best for your future endeavours. Hope u will come back stronger
