@alpha2505 Focus on revision. About practicing mocks, take print of last 10 year's(or may be less) Prelims papers and solve them in the exam conditions (with OMR). It doesn't matter if you knew many answers beforehand as focus should be on the questions where you have made a guess. Match it with OFFICIAL answer key and try to find clue in language, template, pattern etc. Dissect the paper with the help of internet and make notes. Believe me this is going to be of much help than solving some random mocks.

Can anyone please share the location map of GI tags added this year? Similar map was shared by someone last year and it was extremely helpful.

And if possible, please share such maps of various culture related topics like festivals in news, etc

Is it advisable to revise my current affairs notes for Prelims 2020 once or focus on reading CA of these last 2-3 months?

Are they still relevant for prelims?

Not festivals in news IMO. But I think GI does make sense.

@sstarrr imo examiners are moving away from coaching institutes' favourite topics. 2020 was perfect example.

You're right - these are actually coaching institutes favrt topics.

But some bouncers here and there by UPSC can be thrown. Better be prepared. These are some of the UPSC's past favourite topics . You can never know what UPSC might throw.

Hello dudes/dudettes what's everybody's opinion on Epic? I'm kinda sick of looking at Vision and it's full of random facts and redundant stuff now. I like Focus but they're making it too lengthy.

Anyone here cleared RBI grade B or has any idea about it?

I cleared grade B but I have no idea about how the job is compared to civil services as I gave it without even a single day prep and had no idea how much papers went so never bothered to take any opinion about job.

Heard somewhere that IAS,IPS,IFS,IRS(IT),IRS(C&CE) are better than RBI but compared to other jobs thru civils like AFHQ or defence account or defence estate RBI is much better? Is is true that RBI grade B is better than lower ranked civil services?

How is it respect wise, pay wise, stability?

Please shed some light.

Thanks.

@SunnyParashar 🙏🏻. I was really amused to hear such news always. Few people clear some exams without any preparation or with very less preparation. Many people specifically prepare for these exams for years still won’t clear for long time 🧐 
By the way RBI Grade B is one of the top posts in India. Their salary, facilities are matchable with top central services. Congratulations

@SunnyParashar You don't trust the people who told you that IAS,IPS,IFS,IRS(IT),IRS(C&CE) (ONLY?) are better than RBI-grade B? It seems a well researched set of services:D Btw it's fantastic service in terms of Salary, perks, residence and work life balance. Grab it!
