Celeborn,
@D503 Sir where can I see cut off?
Celeborn,
I didn't go for all of these in AI capability question, that only seemed to be anti ninja question.
Now that I think of it, the fact that they added a question with the phrase "With the present level of development" does make it seem that they want to move away from the "all of these" approach. Hoping that they release the answer key quickly.
Celeborn,
introspecting about "all of these" in sci tech xD
bas hoping for official key before prelimsWill be a big shift. I was counting on those "All of these" questions :P
Can we rely on? I know we can rely on considering the answer keys, but I am really really fearful about them and always tend to think and overthink in science and tech questions which obviously leads me to getting them wrong. How you guys would go about it?
There will always be ambiguity. Based on the circumstantial evidence that we had, it seemed feasible to mark D wherever it seemed possible, specially for emerging technologies. However, the complexity of this exam keeps increasing every year so we can't really be sure.
A lower cut off can either be due to these S&T questions or due to the CSAT effect. I'm eager to find out which one is it. Does anyone have any idea how much time it takes for UPSC to release the answer key?

Yeah! I always tend to think that if its an emerging technology, you can never be sure what could be its potential benfits so i go for all of these and even in the mocks followed the same thing. Everytime I would go for all of these in emerging tech, I would get it right.
And 92 is so so low!!
