@chikuiasbano in my view ..In comparison with last time .
Essay : difficult 
Gs 1 : same level 
Gs2 : easier 
Gs 3 : difficult than last time 
Gs4 : easier 

Optional : easier .

GS4 kha se easy lga bhai. Itna lamba case study aur questions m itne subparts. Sare parts address kro toh time jyada lag ja rha.
Case study m time jyada lga toh 10 markers ka quality compromise ho gya. 

Agar last year question tough tha toh iss baar time management k wajah se tough ho gya

Overall more or less same tha level but case studies last year wali alag hi level ki thi. 1st reading m case study smjh nhi aati thi nd 2nd m ethical issues pta nhi lgte the.

Anyone with Maths or engineering optional?

How was the toughness of paper this year compared to 2020?

In Civil engineering,paper 1 was relatively easier while paper 2 was  tougher.

So in totality,the level is identical with last year. 

Many humanities optional candidates are claiming that their paper was easier.Is the trend same for engineering and maths subjects??

@Duryodhan Last year case studies were tougher but with 3-3.5 pages only 
This year, on average,there were 4-5 pages writing space which indicates its lengthy nature.
More or less same level as last year.

Easy papers might not translate to more marks in humanities 😀

Infact sometimes it's better to have tough papers.

@masteroptimist Even if koi sirf 0.5 0.6 page extra likhe to total 3-4 pages extra to likhna hi padega case studies me.
1 page likhne me 3.5 minutes lagte hain that means almost 12-15 minutes jyaada lagenege case studies me.

Anyone with history optional? What is the general opinion? While the paper, I know, can’t exactly be called difficult, it wasn’t very straightforward either, right? The first paper ? Good standard of questions, in my opinion.

I think P1 a bit lengthy, ancient wasn't that straight forward.

10 marker of medieval were relatively better this time

World history was a bit tricky..probing a bit deeper, i felt

@RaGa yeah, I agree. So we can’t really say the paper was easy & it wouldn’t be too stupid  to hope for lenient marks? 😅
 In fact I messed up medieval India 10 markers because of time, so god help me. If you have any past experience, does filling pages matter in optional?
