How do we avoid a complete panic and total blackout? I experienced that today.By being aware that panic will happen, by being okay with it, by changing our relationship with anxiety 😊.
hopefully today's haphazard performance won't bring me down tomorrow and 2.5 years of prep won't just go down the drain. Doesn't matter if I clear or not, as they say full effort is full success.
How tough or easy was Gs1 and 2
I did find the papers to be on the tougher side with few questions demanding specific answers. So I wrote very generic answers in a few which won’t be fetching a lot of marks I guess. Gs 2 was imho tougher than last year paper. But then again I didn’t appear for last year and in the exam hall no paper seems easy 😄

In all the GS papers bar Ethics, 80% paper could have been attempted with NCERT+ the usual suspects. Par nahi, jabtak "value add" nahi karenge to intellectual kaise banenge?
At many points it feels as if I am the one willingly refusing to get selected. :/
Koi value add ka jo path k gayi thi, wo likh k bhi nahi aayi. Lack of practice. Isse a haha 3. Mahine ache so hi leti
Have to go over again IPT because I’ve only studied it in passing so far and maybe a quick look at the multitude of scholars we have in Sec B :/
And, will take notes to revise Sec B of Paper 2 tomorrow in the break (productivity level: pro max ultra and POV: very underprepared)
If you’re having any difficulty with the scholars view, just write the analysis. Should be enough to get you marks , this is what Shubhra Mam emphasised in class
Meaning write own analysis?
Yes following the general thought of an analyst. Like CRM generally gives a realist view, while Happymon Jacob focuses on social contructivist analysis, or criticises the present approach

I *feel* our own arguments as long as they are relevant, logical and informed are better than flooding the answer with scholar opinions anyway.
Totally . This is my opinion too
All I'm thinking about right now is the fact that I need to lose weight. :(
But guys, it's been an exhausting couple of weeks. We all deserve a break. Start worrying about your essay performance after a couple of days. I'm putting my anxiety on hold for now.
Machine Gun agrees . Machine put on 4 kgs in last 3 months.
From june 2020 to january, I have gained 11 kgs. All due to stress eating.
Everyone who wrote mains this time I would really like to know what worked for you guys this time in prelims?
Considering the kind of unexpected paper that it was this time, still people were able to get such good marks in prelims and able to clear it, I would really like to know what worked for you and what was your 'strategy' ?

Although I am pretty sure I won’t make it, but this is giving me major anxiety.how are you pretty sure? curious
for me , anxiety increases during night time and often times i know that the anxeity is misplaced. its because i didnt do much during the day. i had no result anxiety during daytime.
My essay paper is the reason I feel like there is very little chance for me. As well as gs 3 and almost every other paper was very generic imo. Idk if result surprises me but seems unlikely.
Although I am pretty sure I won’t make it, but this is giving me major anxiety.essay ke basis par mat judge kro bhai. Personal experience se bata raha hu, essay me jab triple digit cross hone ki ummid nahi thi very honestly tb essay ne jadu kia tha. GS me ap soch skte ho kaisa gaya roughly but essay is a nanha jadugar, apko surprise kar skta he
Me asha karta hu tumhara ho jaye
Thank you. Agar ho jaye tab toh aage mehnat karenge, na bhi ho toh 2022 k liye tayyari karni hai. Apko bhi all the best. 🤓
can anyone help me with following queries:
1: are candidates from delhi qualifying for interview called first?
2: are candidates called roll number wise for interview?
I think it’s random. I am not sure though. Definitely not roll number wise.
thanks for insight
but its almost certain that delhi is called first. aisa pata lagta h dekhne se.
thanks
Okay okay I didn’t know that. I am not from Delhi so if that’s the case, it’s a breather for me
I can’t see the notice anymore. Kisiko dikh raha hai?https://www.upsc.gov.in/whats-new/Civil%20Services%20%28Main%29%20Examination%2C%202021/Notice
I am able to access the notice here
I have cleared the cookies. And the link you’ve provided doesn’t give the notice anymore to me. So i guess results can come anyday now

Ok

I hope you are not being sarcastic. Because the whole notice situation is so confusing, that’s why I asked.
Anyway All the best to you too 🙌🙌 , whenever the results come.
@Pam123 its gone
Thank you for confirming. Let’s all hope for the best now.
@Admgenalanezh mujhe toh sachhi mai nahi dikh raha. Agar abhi bhi hai, tab toh aise hi itni anxiety badha li apni. But ab toh kya hi kar sakte hai, jab bhi release karna ho kar de UPSC.
Pam Bhau ek bat batao, mana k kuch logo ko nahi dikh raha, lekin agar upsc ko notice wapis Lena hoga to naya notice laega na ke friends purana notice galat tha sorry for inconvenience ham use wapis lete he, jb tk esa koi new notice na ae tb tk dikhe ya na dikhe wahi satya he sadly
Jaruri toh nahi lag raha ki aesa notice dalegi hi upsc. Magar abhi iss issue ko leke aur discuss kar k koi fayda nahi dikh raha. Padh lena hi behtar rahega mere liye thoda
Anyone interested in sharing their pre-result anxiety management quirks or strategies. I watch movies and check forum in between.
I took a long walk and kept walking till I got the sheet. Even then I didn’t check and kept walking back home, thoda der baad thanda hone k baad dekha. Aaj ka plan bhi walk hi hai in some time. Currently bas sleeping and beech beech mai telegram jab bhi neend tut jaye
