Mains 2019 Preparation and Discussion Thread

@Charlie_CharlieAI job loss reskilling

How to go with CAPF? Physical and interview? Anyone with any idea?

@CaesarMera bhi ho gya... Kuch pta lge to btana bhai

@Haeckelphir to you will definitely score good

2016 me mujhe 90s me mile the kafi dukh hua tha. In 2017 I prepared well and got 150. I don’t know what the story scene is but I have always tried to develop a backdrop which is interesting to the examiner. Let’s see what happens.@TeddyWestside

@Caesarcheck score even if u have cleared.. if confident on getting cisf then only start with physicals prep

If u r not going to join then don’t waste your time otw it will affect ur upsc prep and esp prelims

@CaesarBhai physical me bus long jumpe thoda Shaun dena. Baaki weight manage kro agar overweight ho to. Itta strict nhi hota medical.

Yaar ek Q's that GS 1 me -
British imperial policy and delay in giving power ?
Isme India perspective likhna tha ki broad picture Lena tha(middle East, Africa, Asia etc).
Q's me specifically India mention nhi tha shayad ?

@Minimumwagethat has and will always fetch marks!! Lets shun aside all the conspiracy theories

@TeddyWestside
There is no problem in starting with story. Only, story should be relevant.

Teddy bhai, chacha420 here...ek essay padhoge mera ...thoda review lena tha...upsc me vaisa hi likha hai

@Haeckeltrue

@Charlie_CharlieIndia perspective hi hona chahiye...zyada depth me toh abtk opt me bhi nai aaya hai ques

@Haeckel
Yes 2018 topics were difficult to interpret. I thinks that's y dip in marks.

Palestine mandate bhi bola mujhe kisi ne, but mai sirf Indian subcontinent perspective se likha hu@Shubz

@Charlie_Charlieyr 1940s me jo cheezen ki thi unhne vo sab likhna tha; like linlith gow offer; cripps mission; shimla conference; wavell plan; cabinet mission; london talks; august declaration; dickiebird plan; boundary commission,Ind ind act; in cheezon ne kaise transfer of power ko complicate kar dia uspe focus karna tha

Maine bhi Indian perspective se hi likha hai. Main "imperial power" term se thoda zyada prabhavit ho gaya iss question mein.

@paranthapijjaare ye history ka standard question hai; indian perspective hi likhna hai

@TeddyWestside
Complicating the transfer of power question, right. Had to right in Indian perspective. About different interpretation by INC and Muslim league about compulsory classification, right to not join bla bla bla. I think don't know how much I am right.

@TeddyWestsidebut i think it is a world history decolonization question...if one has written 1-2 line about israel-Palestine and Malaya decolonization issues..he/she will be awarded some marks extra than others
