Mains 2019 Preparation and Discussion Thread

@ranyo_asokaethics is the only paper I could finish within time..
Baki tino gs me 15/25 marks likh nahi paya

@Haeckelyes..but thoda lengthy tha..chances of getting stuck in a quetion were high

Wrote 3 types I think. I am still not sure what the first half of the question meant.@vaibhavhrc8327

Kaafi. Agar case study me high score nahi kiya ( jo ki mushkil hai looking at the questions) to mushkil hai 95 cross karna.@ranyo_asoka

@vaibhavhrc8327
In gs3?

@Minimumwage3 hi case study the. baki teen to question answer the haha... is baar sab case study theory flop ho gyi..no ethical dilemmas asked etc

@dr-ahmednaaz8567Yes

@Minimumwageeven last year it was difficult to cross 95...
Case studies were not case studies but qna.. difficult to bring too much ethics into it.. wrote gs type answers to it.. hope to get at least 8 case study

It is interesting to see how they will award case studies. I will know from my marks for sure this time how they have rewarded this section.@Haeckel

@vaibhavhrc8327
I think geographical vulnerability-e.g. orissa, physical vulnerability, social vulnerability financial vulnerability etc

@ranyo_asokaarc ka use bhot tha is bar case study ko complete karne ke liye

@Minimumwageha.. without good marks in case studies it’s impossible to score 95+

All will get 40-48 marks in theory questions on an avg

@sat_009didn’t mention even once

@sat_009
Yes and also in section A like official secret act.
In fact gs2 and gs3 also 2nd arc came handy

@dr-ahmednaaz8567in the traditional knowledge in gs 3 what have u written?

@vaibhavhrc8327
Compilation of data regarding traditional drugs by d govt, resistance to amend IPR regime could not attempt properly, in fact gs3 I found difficult.

@vaibhavhrc8327
What u wrote?

@dr-ahmednaaz8567wrote about equitable access and benefit sharing cbd, how product and process innovation is not there in traditional knowledge didn't know exact answer so wrote on these lines.

@vaibhavhrc8327
Same with me.

@vaibhavhrc8327i think the question was revolving around TKDL of AYUSH ministry...which was a direct previous year question
