Those who have interpreted "you cannot step into the same river twice" as you cannot do the same mistakes again,

Shall we drop emails to upsc to consider our interpretation?

I think a similar situation took place earlier when there were multiple interpretations of a particular quote. There was some confusion wrt the term "engender".

Is anyone aware what happened then?

as per Heraclitus-

It means that everything is in a state of flux, I.e. continuously changing.

Someone told me that representations can only be made within 1 week.

Right now we can just hope for the best.

well this is an essay paper. And an independent statement was provided to us to write an essay of 1000 words.
The context of the statement was not set, thus it may have multiple interpretations.

But who am I to say anything lol. Everything depends upon UPSC now!

essay- misinterpreted 2nd topic. So can’t say really.
gs1- personally I felt slightly easier than last years( cuz geography was relatively easier, + I’m comfortable in socio questions due to my optional.
gs2- difficult for me, especially 15 markers. Found them vague, wrote whatever I could
gs3- definitely easier than last years. SnT questions gave headache though.
gs4- a very difficult paper indeed( very lengthy). Answer quality is definitely compromised.

optional- slightly better than last time( fingers crossed).
