@abhishek_pkeep reading current affairs for next prelims. Static 15-20 din mei revise ho jaega before prelims, as that would ve your 2nd attempt. Problem mainly current affairs karne mei hoti hai.
@DKTDamn. I had a similar dream. I missed one paper somehow, and then started to calculate how much I need to score in Optional to compensate for that paper.
@zombieland@DKT
I don't underrstand how you guys judge the quality during the exam, but to me every answer of mine seemed mediocre. We never know what others are writing. Thus, I try to write all answers with the best quality that I can get in the given time. Do share how you judge the quality during the exam.
@DKT
I think you have put a lot of effort into your prep this time and your answers also seem that way (from what i have observed when you described them). So yes, we may be looking at one of the toppers here. Itna confidence tabhi aata hai jab aadmi ne perfectly kiya ho. Also, because this is not your first attempt, your assessment can be taken as credible. All the best bhai. Interview phod do bas ab.
@The_Powerpuff_girl
Arey bhai, mere saath bhi same hota hai
Last year GS2 deke lag raha tha ki 60s mei marks aayenge. Finally 92 pahucha (still bad, but way above expectation)
@The_Powerpuff_girl
Expecting in 90s max. Yours?
@NadigVinay
Same here bhai. Opportunity cost bhot jyada hai prep continue karne ka, dheere dheere baaki raste band hone lagte hain.
@NadigVinay
Is it possible to do mba from.good colleges after gap of 3-4 years? Also, I have not seen anyone beyond the age of 27 years doing the regular pgp (in my friend circle).
@kochikaame
I get similar doubts sometimes, because lifestyle and balance is much better in ifs, but ias is the one which actually gives the thing (power & social impact) which most aspirant aimed for when they started the prep. Hence, I have decided to fill IAS >IFS >IRS if I clear mains this time. Leaving the decision to luck. Let teh rank decide.
@bevancom
I got 98.55 this year in cat. No hope from old iims. May get a call from MDI and SPJain. Will surely join if I get an offer, if nothing else (RBI, UPSC) works out this time.
@bevancom
Period of Mar-May will be decisive for me. All Final results will come at that time. Let's see how it works out. But whichever way it goes, will be the final line, won't change it later, kyunki upsc wala adventure hi kafi ho gaya life mein.
@johnwick
That foreign allowance also varies with the location lf posting. You won't get 5000 USD in uganda, it would be lesser, depending upon the purchasing power parity of that country.
@Valar_morghulis
Probably this is why some ifs officers have no good country in their postings. But I think 1st generation officers also have a chance, because Rahul Shrivastav (IFS officer, active in quora) had dexent postings in his career, and he is 1st gen.
@johnwick
Ohh, i forgot about the hardship allowance. But are sure about minimum 3500 USD in developing countries? Because if it based on cost of living index, it can go below 3500 usd right? But anyhow, there is undoubtedly a lot of opportunity to save money (clean money) in ifs.
@The_Powerpuff_girl
Not thought about it yet. Abhi pehle rbi grade b ka interview dena hai 22nd ko, uske baad upsc ka sochenge.
@Yashmishra
I read Himanshu Sir's notes in this attempt and joined his test series.
@DKTBhai kya raha result?
@Bubba_gump
110s mein. Achcha chal raha tha usme. Though in actual exam Paper 1 was really bad for me. Didn't attempt many 10 markers
