Mains 2019 Preparation and Discussion Thread

Just seen last year mains marksheet thread on forum. Literally people's reactions are scary. Though useful for getting answer writing tips and yes also for understanding how much UPSC can be unpredictable. last year GS 1 checking strict hua tha kya? Can someone throw light who had written mains last year?

@chandler_bingYes...Its feel like mind stops thinking and when you write daily and force your brain to think it becomes faster with time. Another thing that I have noticed about answer writing is even if you know the answer and you have content but it is the presentation on answer sheet that makes all the difference...I have analyzed 2017 rank 1 answer sheets. and I was amazed at his presentation skill. So simple and clear language yet covers all dimension with relevant facts and examples. Atleast what I have understood is writing good answer is different thing and then writing in speed to complete question paper is different. Even if you have speed but not enough content then also answer writing doesnt help to fetch good marks.

@CaesarI am working under district Collector directly in state services and believe me what we learn in ethics nothing is applicable here or can say initially every officer tries to be honest but when they realize how system works every one falls in line or they get sidelined. and one more thing if one is not corrupt directly, in the name of protocol they enjoy all the luxuries from there subordinates. This is also a form of corruption. But it is every where.
