Does mains cut offf matters? I dobt know. Just thought everyone scores similar marks in interview. Is it? So those who just clear cutoff can crack the exam? 

Bhai nihayati galat thought hai. Interview main 120 to 215 ka variation hota h

Unpopular opinion : I hate drawing diagrams except in geography questions because it is hard to put down definitions in that diagram. In a circle, i can draw different sectors and put the points..but there is no space to explain them. Also perhaps .....the paper is descriptive. 


agreed, infact there have been many toppers clearing exam without drawing flowchart and diagrams. i think evaluator is too mature to be tricked by diagrams here and there. if content is up to the mark, these rudimentary things don't matter

Diagrams should add some value like drwaing world map for monsoon. Diagrams like sun and ray  help in saving time. That saved time helps in increasing marks especially when there is time crunch. Also in GS3 explaining through flow charts is easier in many questions. 

So indirectly it helps. However if one can explain better and manage time without drawing all such diagrams, then also it is equally good. It is upto an individual. No hard rule

I have heard  "Scary movie" series is enlightening and entertaining, even if it may not be that scary 😂😂😂😂

Wo parody h 😂😂😂. Yes entertaining, but looking for 'real' horror right now

Watch Hereditary . Not a typical horror movie but quite disturbing 

10/10. Aisa aur kuch ho toh btana please

it's not horror but much better. in case you haven't explored byomkesh bakshi on YouTube i suggest you do  there are around 39 episodes of 20 minutes each. start in order. it's beautiful. the best thing is that it gives glimpses of the old times something that fascinates the most. story and music is also good.

@Philip_Marlowe share the link if you find one

Btw mine was avg performance ( demand addressed correctly , hindsight more quality aspects (addtnl dimensions & addtnl historiography could have been added )

Maps ( 13~ looks probable ,the lack of state boundaries and improper alignment of points scared me at the exam)

By the way, how are you guys spending time??

I am planning to complete 3-4 movies and tv series in the coming 1-2 days and then planning to return to studies/work. Taking a long break would create inertia at best.

I have been binge watching all 80s matches, India, Australia, west Indies, Pakistan. 1987 India Australia tied test is too good, similarly 92 India Pak. One thought comes in, Tendulkar was so young when he was playing in 92 still was taking all the responsibility as if a senior player.
