Thank you. These articles are a goldmine. Don't know how I missed this.
Hi everyone, I have been fortunate enough to get AIR 151 in UPSC CSE 2020.
I have been mostly a silent follower of forum now for a longtime now. As someone completely unknown to the exam process, ForumIAS right from its discuss.forumias days was a source of immense knowledge for me. From the success stories to stories of struggle and sacrifice, genuine advice to banter all have been motivating and refreshing for me. Over the last year and a half the community in its resurgent form has become an even greater support tool for me. The Daily routine thread, threads relating to questions and finally the Post Mains thread has all been very helpful in keeping me motivated and sane.
I would like to sincerely thank all the kind people on this forum who have been so helpful. A very special thanks to@Neyawn for all the motivating posts and guidance via this platform. Despite not having met any of the people in the community, I have been able to feel comfortable and at home in the various discussions on Forum. Infact as a person who has been consistently struggling with depression, Forum was the only place which has ever tried to delve into the mental aspect of what this exam and life in general does to us. The maturity of the community and the helpful attitude of many here is something I deeply appreciate.
Finally, to end this long write up, I sincerely hope that all the lovely people here make it to their dream services. All the best for those appearing for the upcoming Prelims :)

I have always been intrigued by your name. Who are you ? Have we met ? And what with the name ? Sorry if I am missing something obvious like a popular character or book :/

Hi @Neyawn sir..
I gave my interview recently.
I got 942 (2 less than cut off) with split
126+90+102+99+97+249(134+115)
This is my 4th attempt with anthro and I'm not able to improve my score with anthropology despite putting lot of effort . My scores for last 4 times are 263,281,217,249.
Is it a wise decision to skip this year and change my optional to psir and give next year.
Seeing a lot of students , your experience is immensely helpful.
Thank you

Have you / your teacher incorporated the book Sapiens in your notes? Yes or No ?

Sir
in a similar situation. Dm’d you. Please look into it.
hey
I am a little confused after looking at my prelims 2020 marksheet that was released yesterday.. I was scoring in the range of 82-85 marks from various answer keys (Like ForumIAS, Vision, BYJUs) but actually ended up getting 75!!
I thought I might have done some bubbling error but today I opened Insights portal to solve daily quizzes and saw this whole thread where ppl are saying that they have also got like 15-20 marks less than what they actually expected. I know what is done is done and anyway I was not clearing prelims with a score of even 82-85 (General category) but its messing up my mental state way too much ..
Is anyone here facing a similar issue? Is there a chance that UPSC might have deleted 4-5 questions ..
