Mains 2021 Result declared - In or Out?

Chanakyasaid

This is something that's troubled me for a while now. What if the evaluators actually read our answers scripts thoroughly. Maybe it's all about the content and coherence. We may have a lot of content which is really not of much coherence. An average answer has to satisfy the demand too. I mean of it really was about sticking to ibc, using diagrams and flowcharts, and other ptesent

@Forumite Hopefully 95~ atleast for ppl who have attempted all questions addressing the demand with basic content

But it baffles me when someone says they have left 1 1/2 Qns but still score 100+ , maybe presentation and stats have higher weightage I guess

The words *addressing the demand with  basic content* are very very subjective.. n most difficult to achieve..

All those who attempt mains should get 95 in all papers by this logic..

Many toppers..like AIR 65.. scored 75 in GS 3 in 2019.. how do we explain that then

@Chanakya 

There was a person who claims that he checked Q  9,10,19,20 of GS 3 in 2020

He is a retired Major General and was in intelligence services too.

He told that examiners read each and every word in the answer copy.

@Street_lamp No man. 95 is not okayish but a very good score. Probably, one can get rank.

@Admgenalanezh Not like that , they first deny ews . Then they see if ews has been used at any stage , if yes then out of services else they are put into general list.

Aashima had used EWS in prelims.

Unrelated to the marks discussion, but just read the case of Aashima Goyal (CSE-2019). It was because of wrong usage of EWS certificate that she was denied the service. I personally know A LOT of candidates, who are otherwise serving in the grade pay of 5400 (approx monthly  gross income 80K-100k), who are claiming such EWS quotas. They say that they are on probationary period and hence this and that. One person I know got into the top-3 service in EWS category but did not join because he feared that later on he may be caught. The other person I know comes from an affulent family and was earning 75,000 pm in 2016 and resigned in 2020, still claimed EWS. 

Now the point is, the candidates shall be asked to submit EWS certificate prior to Mains, to expedite and weed out the non eligible students. These RICH people and eating away the benefits of the intended beneficiaries.

I googled about the case. What I don't understand is UPSC asking her to produce the certificate for a different financial year and her reply that she needs more time to apply for it. But to the best of my knowledge, back-dated certificates will not be provided by government offices. UPSC could've rejected the candidature on that ground itself, that she doesn't have the relevant certificate, but they took the extra effort of obtaining ITR details of that year and proved without any doubt that the candidate is ineligible. I feel sorry for her, but I don't think UPSC can be blamed for it in any way.
