Mains 2019 Preparation and Discussion Thread

@K_9its just about loose and tight marking,
plus arts optional mein bhi loose marking ki h upsc n
2016 se shuru hua hai ye sbh, when cutoff jumped 99 marks, it cannot be possible without updation of marking style !
and everything is relative, and inter years marks cannot be compared , if one want to compare 2013/14 with 2018/19 , first the 'inflation' adjustment is required!

@missionmangalwo alter nhi hoti hai, jitne obc/sc /st genral se uper hote hain utni genral ki kam hojati hai, coz till allocation ye sure nhi rhte ki wo log gen ki lenge seats ya reservation use hoga , to that no of obc/ st/sc get reduced fr total vacancies, badme aftr reserv list u can see total would be same

@Champakin my opinion we can get 0 fir bad answer and 15 for perfect answer , ab ye depnd krta h kitno m 15 ayga ya 12 ya 11ya 9/8/ or 0/1 and moderation hoti hai fir, koi teacher 15 jyada die hoga to unke highest 150+ gye hnge, and kisi k 110 and thn moderation se uper niche kia jata hai, tbhi log shock bhi hojate h ki acha nhi hua tha itna fir b jyada numbr agye
ye abh maine gs k ppr ka bola,
coz moderation is a rule, its a process for intra paper parity, ek examinr bs 250 se 300 he check kr skta h

plus its highly objectionable if kisi ne 250 words m sari demand puri ki ho n 15 na mile, upsc court cases mein dikhati hai answer copy, n waha use prove krna mushkil hoskta hai, ye to coaching wala highest 120s mein dekh k rule bna lete h ki 7 se uepr nhi dene 15 mein se, and 4/5 best answer k lie 10mein se

so raw marks can be 180/250 ya 150/250 but apne ko moderated dikhte h gs mein

@Shubzsee the cutoffs of engineering services exam wo bhi upsc ka he hai,
the thing is reservation is for last stage, phle se obc ko obc mein consider nhi kia to agar last mein usne obc se cadre le lia to last obc ko allocation nhi milegi n so on
due to demography of upsc cse abhi tak kam ata h cutoff, aage ka sure nhi ho skte ho,
kbhi2 cycle esa ata hai ki obc ki seats thodi kam hoti h total proportion se and agar kisi k marks gen se uper h usko obc mein he count krte h till last allocation ,han agar cadre etc k baad b gen ki mil rhi tab gen ki allot krnge n picche wali seat ko extended merit list m include krdnge, thats why hamesga vacncies se kam final shortlist hote h, wo difference utna hai jotna obc/sc/st gen cutoff se uper hote h

@TETRACYCLINEit is u or cse market who think 140 or even 150/250 is very huge score, but max marks se 100 kam he hai, to ye khoon kholne wali koi baat he nhi, ita just new paper setter new cycle new paper

koi score huge nhi h , chahe 200/250 ajaye, huge wo margin h jisse aap avg se uper rhte ho, 150/250 in essy koi itna huge nhi bolta ki next year upsc usko down kare, to gs 3 k 120s /110s mei avg aane se marking chnge??

2015 tak subject mein 250 was very good acore and 300 was huge as per the cse market , 2016 mein 250 ka chnge hokr 280s mein hogya and huge ka 320s mein ,,,
i dnt think upsc mein 7 ya 8/15 max limit hai, wo dete h 12,13,15/15 , but aftr moderation intra and inter raw score nhi dikhta apne ko,
ps ye sbh coaching walo ne apne ease k lie kia hua hai, accha answer 6/15, best answer 8/15, intro to 1 add krdo, intro mhi to 1 mat do, ye sbh nhi hai waha, sbh tukke marte hain, n log bs bakio la sun k usko he sach smjhte hain

@Caesarthere is a timeline of any hobby, u can justify when u started, etc, hobby thing is just a starter point, to bring our temperature to room temp, but jo log jhuth likhte ye question unka propose solve nhi hone deta, unki heart beat aur bdh skti h

plus u can drive ur intrve in the way u want, otherwise chairman is ofcourse a good driver , he will drive ur intrvw, both ways are good, they just want to know something about you, if they can see an officer in you, nothing will matter !
