Mains 2021 Result declared - In or Out?

brownianMotionsaid

With due respect to so-called 'insiders', I think we should believe their words at our own risk. This just adds to speculation.

I can also make a prediction that since essays were tough, many people will be scoring low. While, one who have given 'original content' (dont know what is that) are getting rewarded with 140+ score.

I remember trusting their 'sources' at the time of prelims result. While the result came out that day itself, the date of the result was already provided by media 2~3 days back. While in the TG group, it was presented as if .....

They have no Idea. 

In few days they will say results will be out around 12-15 or something like that ' deadline is 18 march'

and when the date is close they start looking for Friday and the game starts. After this every day is result day since morning to evening  they keep you in horror by making it seem like result can be out at any moment now.

And result will come eventually because they already told you  so but they do it every night before you go to sleep and listen to ' Yahi raat antim yahi raat bhari' and next day from morning to evening you will be feeling like going potty and waste entire day.

Be prepared for this :D

Even if an reserved candidate clear all stages with general cutoff and get rank in 60s or 70s, they still opt for reserved seat rather than UR for cadre preferences. This is a conscious choice by reserved candidate for cadre. 

This is the reason that most of candidates in reserved list issued by UPSC after an year belong to generals. So don’t worry UR seats are not eaten up.

Anyone with history optional? What is the general opinion? While the paper, I know, can’t exactly be called difficult, it wasn’t very straightforward either, right? The first paper ? Good standard of questions, in my opinion. 

aa12said

@Sopranos I’m a first timer only so can’t exactly comment on its relative difficulty.  Because all the past year papers seem easy while seating at home 😅 

there wasn’t any question that I went blank on, in both the papers.  But by not easy I mean, the questions weren’t straightforward and it won’t be easy to score good. For example, they asked ‘stages of feudalism’ ; varna-Samkara; one should have REALLY REALLY studied well to answer well.

@Capedcrusader1  Whatever she said has an academic source, but neither PM nor the bhakt gang has any source for anything. Their knowledge is old. 🤣

bhai maine ncert old wali padhi hai. kahin bhi wo sab nai mila muje. main fir padh lunga. bhakti movement jahan hai wahan ye sab nai likha hai. so mere lie ncert hi source hai. aur sabke lie wahi h. ab khoj khoj ke kuch bhi le ao aur use authentic bologe toh dusri taraf ke bolenge ki galat hai, toh ye chalta rahega.

madam ka source of info ncert nai h toh uski relevance hai hi nai

if i fill 2 pages in 20 marker and 1.5 in 15marker, does it create bad impression on examiner?

or he just looks at relevant points in the answer?

Agar me esa karke ata to me maan ke chalta ke nahi hona he selection chahe jo ho jae.

 4 pages hi isiliye diye he 20.marks ke questions me taki utna content koi dal paye. 2 page wale question hote to 10 number na allot krte us q ko. jaanchne wale bhi observer bias ka shikaar ho sakte he, they are not gods.

And don't forget the sheer level of competition, everything goes by theory of relativity in this exam

Since, we’re discussing questions now. Can anyone tell me tribal knowledge me kya likhna tha? GS 1

Indigenous knowledge ke baare me likhna tha with examples.

Andaman islander- how they know beforehand about tsunami 

Himalayan tribe- woolen cloth that can survive extreme temp 

Medicinal ( todas, khasis)

Agriculture ( koraput),

Rope making by birhor etc.

Conclusion me tkdl, language preservation etc.

Uniqueness of tribal knowledge and culture:

Civil engineering: Anda.an tribal making huts with ability to survive in tsunami

Health: Traditional medicines of herbs, belief in shamans, not aware of germ theory of disease, believe disease caused by bad deeds and I'll omens

Education system: Tribal schools/colleges where teenagers are taught life skills 

Weaponry: Use of spears, arrows

Agriculture system: Primitive, organic manure

I have interacted with around 20 mains candidates.. including few on this forum through chat..

Around 80% of them said that they have performed well and are expecting around 270+ in optional and 130+ in essay..

In GS .. Expectation of around 400 is common among candidates this year..

So point I m making is..

Many are expecting 800+ this year.. whether they get or not is altogether a different story..

Expectations are higher this year than previous.. this shows paper was easier this year atleast as per the perception of the candidates..

PS.. I m not exaggerating.. stated what I have observed..

One who cannot estimate his/her performance is not an expert either.. it is not wrong to be able to make a rational analysis of performance..

Clearing mains cutoff with<5 marks and preparing for interview like an idiot, not knowing the fact that all that effort is useless.

In worst case scenario, I would rather choose to flunk mains than just qualify in border.

The only two services, which won't see any reduction in power, in my opinion are the IPS and IA&AS. IPS, because police is a necessary evil, and "powerful leaders"(who are on the rise all over India) like to keep police on their side.IPS will see an increase in power in the future.

IA&AS will remain the same, as it's the only service in the list which has some kind of constitutional backing (CAG), and if their powers are reduced, will result in huge political furore.

IA&AS is a powerful post..

Nice try dude..

First time heard that..

Nobody cares about them btw..

They keep looking for some calculation mistakes in accounts books.. but guess what..due to digitization that scope has ended..

All they get is chai nashta lunch from the pocket of staff members of the office where they audit ..that is all

System audit can't replace human audit, unless the AI becomes powerful enough. System can throw out the discrepancies in numbers, but it requires a human to make sense of it and arrive at good conclusions.

Bhai IAAS ka main benefit is just fast promotions. Rest itna koi audit ka power nahi hota bas thodi nuisance value hai wo bhi bohot jyada nahi hai. People in field are well aware of rules so audit doesn't scare them much. 

I don't think so. Everyone in government are afraid of "audit guys". People make sure that they are given the best vehicles, accommodation, liquor (and money too) etc, so that nothing bad gets written about them on file. So many rules are out there, and so much interpretation that it doesn't matter even if you're 100% honest; and in govt, so many are corrupt.

Well maybe so. I didn't see such Khauf of Audit people. I have only seen people treating them as minor nuisance. And audit doesn't say anything about a person, may make comments on some decisions which as I said are routine objections just minor inconvenience. 

I assume you're not in a government service (please don't take the comment in a bad way, so far what I've seen, anyone in govt would know about the power of IA&AS).

@Philip_Marlowe,@Dip, as per your experience, would it be a bad decision to put IA&AS over IRS?

I've seen some videos where I got to know that in IRS though intake is low these years, is a bottom-heavy service. Hence slow promotions. IA&AS on the other hand is the only central service apart from IFS which gets promotions timely at the same level as all India services. Also, the work seems to be interesting with further specialisation into environmental or social audits.
What are your views?

It's a personal choice. If you like IA&AS, then it's a very good service, in my opinion. 

Both IRS IT and Customs have this "bottom heavy" issue. Customs have it for a long time. IRS IT will soon face the trouble. That's because from around 2009 (figures aren't exact) times, under Chidambaram, it was decided to increase the IRS IT intake. The logic was that, since it's a revenue generating service, more officers means more revenue. So, every year, around 100 was the intake for IRS IT. This was stopped in 2018 onwards, I think.

Now, in every government service, first two promotions happen on time. It's from JS level onwards that the crunch starts. Usually IAS become JS by 14 years, similar for IPS. For other services it's 14+2,3,4... even upto 10 years. I've heard that already now customs takes around 20 years to get JS level promotion (but I still prefer customs over IT, because I find the job thrilling). Now, since the increased intake of IRS happened around 2009, from around 2023-24, a bottleneck will appear in their JS  promotions. IRS IT guys themselves are worried about it, especially after the recent reforms, they are demanding increased deputation to compensate for the deficiencies.

I'm no expert, but if you like IA&AS, I'd definitely say it's a very good choice. Again, it's a personal choice. I don't like IRS IT(we had a two weeks combined training with them in their academy and I really hated it. The officers were pretty arrogant and the subject seemed too dry and boring. Only a few gets to take part in raids and others have to do the boring number crunching, but since they generate revenue, living and working conditions will be better in comparison). 

In comparison, IA&AS always maintained their intake steady. Their promotions are on time, Plus a lesser known thing about IA&AS is that there are many opportunities for foreign deputation, if you are good at work. Don't know the details.

NB: purely my opinion. Please do research on your own before finalising the preferences.

Bhai sab relative hai. 

Jinka mains clear nhi hua: woh mains cutoff ko sub-conciously target krtr hain jaise k 1 number se clear ho jaye toh selection ho jayega.

Jinka mains clear hua aur selection nhi hua. Woh last rank ko target krte hain. Chahe last rank wale ko AFHQS hi milta ho is rank pe.

Jinko service mil gya woh apne se upar preference wale ko target krenge aur niche preference wale ko thoda kum aakenge.

Bas lyf aise hi chalti jayegi.

Bt mere jaise log jinhone kaafi attenpt de diye without selection unke liye koi rank aa jaaye  yhi maayne rakhta hai. Ek honourable exit k liye.

@Sopranos may be UPSC has started this. This is good, would lead to lesser bluff games and genuine achievements acknowledged.

Why UPSC gave notice ?

To inform that not even 20 days between your interview and result. So, those who are confident must prepare now.

Akkkusaid

@Sopranos nahi, itna late toh nahi ayenge.

Matlab, phele interview date pata chalne pe bhi 15 days wagra rahte the I guess. Abh 20 days mai daf 2 bhi bharwenge, fir list nikalenge.

Ya, delhi wala sahi lag raha.

No result before case hearing..

Our lawyer has informed that upsc is on a Blackfoot n hence the delay in results..

In my opinion.. it will take much longer than anticipated by aspirants in the group.

By the way how many of u r aware that hunger strike is going on for extra attempts

Firstly your usrname is cent percent oxymoron and who is your 'lawyer' ? Are you one thing of the petitioners ?

Btw, what Upsc did is the very same done by Neet and Jee-adv organisers. 

If everything in this country gets politicised by doing hunger strikes..than i think it will harm serious candidates much. It happens in state pcs exams, that some छात्र netas (who were candidates in the bygone era) protest at everything. There is one Kaushal 'Sir' who berates the Uppcs each time an English medium candidate gets selected.

There will always remain some party which has been aggrieved or trying to play the victim card. If all voices be heard than there will be no justice, because everyone has got some story.

If Mains 2022 be organised from 22 Feb, some candidates may say that they got ditched on 21st Feb (breakup day), and are in no mood/mental state to write the paper...they may say that breakup hurts more than Covid and there are also no vaccines to mend it.

What a decent language used by the person who claims to have been recommended by UPSC...

Are you sure that your name was in the list..

Or was it in your dreams.. because sharing marks is like an absolute No by citing privacy issues..

A good way to display superiority here by claiming to be among toppers but actually u don't stand a chance to be in that company..

PS.. results today.. hopefully

did anyone know about the fact that putin allegedly rigged 2016 US elections to favour Trump? he led a hacking campaign to malign hiliary clinton's image . basically he saw trump as a favourable president(many reasons for this) so that he could gain a free hand in carrying out his misadventures within russia and also syria.

trump in his meeting with putin in washington actually denied all the claims about russia's hand in election of US. putin saw his arch nemesis USA being completely stupid to the core, shooting himself, all to putin's advantage.

i am stating all this to seek a reply from people who claim to say that ukraine wouldnt have happened if trump would have been the president. any arguments to counter me here?
