@shubhamsatyam22484 ye congress waalon ne 2014 election ke samay se hi opinion polls and exit polls ka boycott start kiya tha if I am not wrong ...But that did not change the actual results that came on 16 th MAY 2014,or 23rd MAY 2019..They were not ready to accept the ground realities..
Likewise ,every year, there are people who do exceedingly well in papers ,however the tough paper may be..Denial mode me humesha nhi rhna chahiye. .

@vvvikas0078212bhai ,aap apne predictions bataoge nhi to koi cut off kaise predict kar sakta hai...In mains,at max one can do is to predict his/her marks...That too depends on various factors..

Ab koi honestly apne predicted marks batata hai to log ridicule karne lag jaate hain..Ye kya matlab hai..

@Brickmissed cut off by 6 marks in 17 and 7 marks in 16 ..Didn't mappear in 18..In 17,my marks were 356+149+292(gs+essay+optional)...Was totally screwed in gs-1 and gs-4 ,got 84 and 72 only ..Average marks in the remaining two gs papers

This year,have done much better in gs-4 ,not screwed gs-1 at least ..Done well in gs-2 and average performance in gs-3 ..
Ab expectation to meri bhi hai cut off clear karne ki ..
