..............................for psir optional :D
real is rational rational is real was intellectually most challenging. I am happy I did not know it was written by hegel despite being psir student (which is good since hegel is not part of psir syllabus and if someone frm psir still studies it then god bless them) as that would have clouded my creative imaginations. This also enabled me to start creatively instead of bringing hegel's ugly head in the introduction itself. However I did link thinkers indulging in investigations on reason and reality including hegel in my essay but went much beyond his stupid philosophy. This also helped me to create my own philosophy which I put forward as :-
"Knowledge is the principal threat to castles of imagination"
but yeah if you have missed one whole essay out of two, then its entirely different story hehe
jab koi kisi 10 marker prashna ko gyan ya samay ke abhaav hetu chhodta he to "Technically" wo 10 mark ka prashna chhodta he lekin "Actually" wo 3 ya 3.5marks ka chhodta he, utna jitna use us prashna me milta gar wo us prashna ko attempt kar pata.
As plato says reality is shadow of ideas. estimate of loss as 10 mark is a reality which is merely a shadow of idea i.e. the true reality which is 3 or 3.5 marks. (application of philosophy to achieve some mental peace :D )
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
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.

College m revise kr liya tha byomkesh bakshi bahut bar 😅. Talking about old dd1 episodes right ??
yes bro mene bhi kai bar revise kia he such a masterpiece it is ❤️❤️
well he built the team in his own image and I feel there is a lack of natural leadership after him. I’m not sure KL Rahul will be that indispensable player himself who will be the long term leader. Like when Dhoni was getting old we all could see the natural leader emerging in Virat…now there is a massive vacuum. I think we as Indian fans should expect a period of slump before things fully settle
"natural leader" my foot. Infact india is suffering from natural leadership deficit since dhoni because kohli himself is as incompetent a captain as a man can be, and even worse as a leader. when will you come out of this GREAT KOHLIAN ILLUSIONARY SPHERE mate. The records in international championship are in front of you. This BHAKTI in cricket has to stop.
Rohit was having below par career and was not a team regular till 2013 champions trophy. At that time Kohli appeared to be a natural choice for captain.
He has a stellar record as a captain and a player but the issue is he did not focus on nurturing players. Thus the chaos which we are witnessing today.

Anyone having trouble retaining attention in studies...? Clocking 12-14 hours during mains weeks has come down to 1-2 hours max now. Last year I wasted 3-4 months in similar situation so I can see a disaster in making but cant avert it...
History repeating itself first as tragedy and now as farce....
make daily plans and for a week or two sleep for 9+ hours. This will have two benifits, one you will wake up relaxed and two the guilt of oversleeping will hopefully encourage you to give most of rest hours to productive work.
in order to prepare psychologically for impending failure in upsc cse i steadily embraced nihilism atleast partially. we all shall die irrespective of anything. it gave me real peace but sadly also made me lethargic. i remember leaving questions in upsc because of lack of interest and fighting spirit . this carelessness and dull attitude is due to nihilism. so while nihilism is great it has it's own shortcomings.In that context,ur nick is quite interesting.

People complain so much about age, early start benefits, etc in UPSC, and it's true on many fronts. But when you see people like Rafael Nadal at age of 35, playing like a Vikings against a 10 year younger sportsperson, losing the first 2 sets and then coming back to win the next 3, You can't do anything but wonder. Truly amazing!

For fitness and "fight-till-last-breathe" level attitude, Dhoni had been/is/will be the best example for generations.
dhoni is good but rohit is better overall . kohli btw isnt even close
Just to give you the example, see the picture which was clicked by me. The chimney is there on the left side but emitting harmful gases from there would mean that the data captured will nullify any work on pollution. Solution? Just emit all the gas from the pellets, being put on the conveyor belt directly into the atmosphere during the early shift. That can be seen on the right side of the picture. Those gases have harmful SO2(reason of their yellowish colour), Pb, Cd, CO, Co2, PM 2.5.10 everything.
this smoke should at least provide hygroscopic nuclei that augments rain.
Impact of digital technology as reliable source of input for rational decision making is a debatable issue. Critically evaluate with suitable example.
How you attempted it in such haste. It says impact being debated. And, then puts critically evaluate and examples too in question header.
in positives i wrote about"anticipatory governance", use in planning and policy formulation, eg disaster management by hazard mapping done by digital modelling tools, etc in negatives i wrote about how lack of digitalsation is itself a problem in India, issues of data security as well as obvious limitations of digital technology. I wrote about failure of bhawantar bhugtan Yojana in madhya pradesh due to lack of digitisation of land records.
i wrote more but I'd be honest i am unable to recall anything else rn
A general doubt
In GS answers ,I answered the core aspect and maybe add another dimension either social/economic in most question that's the maximum dimensions I must have presented
Some model answers suggest all PESTEL dimensions , will that approach fetch more marks even when questions were too specific ?
it is to be remembered that folks preparing model answers take use of internet, spend hours researching, discuss and make answers working in group.
I strongly feel such facilities are not legally available to people writing the actual exam. further pestel has her own limitations. for instance it is difficult to write about problem of sexual harrasment at workplace dimension in question of blue led or talk about climate change in question related to terrorism. it is likewise difficult to talk about art and culture dimension in question of cbi, as it is equally difficult to mention about space science dimension in question of nhrc.
Don't ever compare to people making model answers. they possess the luxuries we don't and ever won't.

Which paper did this question come in? 😂 I don't even remember writing an answer for a question like this fml
Retrospectively, I think I'm being too hard on my self. We wrote ~110 answers and hundreds of mock answers before that. Just about having 7/11 minutes to think of a question and absolutely no time to go back to think about a question after one test is over. Pretty natural imo 😂 especially general questions.
I read a very beautiful quote in a game called "duet" which was :-
"Nothing else matters just this moment".
After writing upsc cse main I realised the quote wasn't essentially romantic
@captainhaddock Part of GS4
Damn. GS4 seems like a dream. More like a hangover. A terrible one.
Gs4 is as such designed to be "The Great Headache" . the way it's created, it will continue to haunt cse aspirants year after year. Whether the question is of time management or about cent percent assurance of having written decent answer, aspirants will never get a clear breakthrough to these questions no matter how hard they try. why? because the paper, it's syllabus, it's flavour everything is designed in such manner. It's so subjective so fluid so unique paper, in many ways it's worthy of being termed as a "Humble Tyrant" :)
I wonder how members here can recall the points they have written in the answer sheet..
I don't remember if I came across this question 😂😂
people are able to recall their points only when they know what they have written which usually happens when one is able to manage time well. if one has written those answers in "great time deficit situation" it's not possible to recall much possibly because in matters of exigency it's far better to act than to think(hannah arendt).
bhaiyon and beheno,just randomly asking, isbar kab tak result aane ki aasha hai aap sab ke hisaab se?(i mean as per last year timing,this year prelims being early and less number of mains copies being checked)..plz marna mat for asking such faltu question..but yaar chul machi pari hai aap sab ka guesses janne ke liye :) :DBhai 20 March k baad kabhi bhi aa skta h i feel.
Baaki itna anticipate mat karo , otherwise Bahut painful honge next 1.5 months .

Bhai tum Hindi poetry start kro. Mujhe bhi ras k liye help ho jayegi . Entertainment toh hoga hi 😬😬

i advise you to not post poems of "nationalist poets" some enlightenment beings of otherworldly intellect may not like them.

Atleast no nonsense utterances take place here as on tele group... utterly low level texts are posted there.. I don't feel like opening tele now...
Experts may please shed some light on expected mains cut off this year.. how did you find as compared to 2019/2020 paper...
I'm not expert but another helpless aspirant. I strongly feel the reduction in cutoff in 2020 was antithetical to level of difficulty w.r.t. 2019. In other words, 2019 papers were tougher in aggregate than 2020, but what would have made a difference is the marking related instructions to the evaluators.
My understanding of papers is
1. essay :- difficult than 2020 ( it's not just abstract, the quality of abstraction also increased unnaturally)
2.gs 1 easier than 2020
3. gs2 easier than 2020 if we look at quality of questions and depth of demand of questions of 2020, deeper than Mariana trench ( not even joking)
4. gs3 2020 was a child's play, elite school students of 9th class would get those questions as summer assignment. 2021 was hopelessly difficult. "exact who guidelines" in terms of hard statistics, blue led, gdp metrics, technical statistics of that air defence system,and specifics of "glasgow gamble" were "soul shattering". So no match (atleast from my perspective and from perspective of common sense)
5. gs 4 - pretty much same 13 questions were easy but that is balanced by unique demands in case studies, where course of action was usually not asked but mere analysis of options available in 5 pages posed some challenge.
6. language - language to sabka ho jata he
7. optional- apna apna dekh lo, mere psir ke to asaan aae the is baar
overall i hate to say this, but 2021 seemed to be easier as conpared to 2020, just like 2020 was easier as compared to 2019.
but we have seen from falling cutoff from 2019 to 2020 despite falling difficulty level , that aggregate complexity of papers is not the decider. the decider is the "instructions" given to evaluators regarding marking. that is the talisman. therefore it's not much use speculating cutoff since that talisman is beyond us all.
Has anyone of you improved more than 100 marks in mains?
Do you know any toppers who were able to do this without skipping an attempt..?
Scoring 100+ in GS is not so easy..
It sounds easy but needs a lot of hard work to reach 3 digit figures...
can totally relate. missed interview call by 6 marks because of gs papers in 2020 ruined them all despite godly performance in essay and above average performance in optional. never trust gs, they are bewafa papers. essay and optional are marriage material, trust them give them time and efforts and they will be by your side even in tough times. hoping to atleast experience interview this time, can't say anything beyond that because not convinced about gs this time again :(
@captainhaddock i dont think repeaters can guage themselves and their performace either
I disagree with you, repeaters have luxury of experience and meticulous evaluation of their experience alongwith the knowledge of their marks in each subject facilitates performance gauging

Speculating cut off of a subjective paper is meaningless, as you will have to speculate on the marking pattern as well, unlike an objective exam like prelims. So it becomes speculation on speculation😅
Bro.. the cut off prediction is done assuming marking will be done as last year...
If any paper is checked strictly or marked liberally.. then cut off may rise or fall in the same proportion.. as all aspirants almost gain/lose similar marks...
Since you are experienced, I'd like to ask something. If marking is done liberally like in ethics 2019, would attempting all questions not put the aspirant at greater advantage in such situations than attempting one or two less but rest ones with precision and depth.
@masteroptimist people who write mains first time, even they cn evaluate themsleves then.papers across years are as it is not comparable nor is the marking pattern. the only thig then anyone (first time or repeater) can do his match his mock performance and his final performance.
completely agree, apologies for making mistake, gratitude for correction
@Akkku my font size is usually big. and increases as i increase speed. so in most questions, page filling was there
i also believe in filling pages being a engineering student
@masteroptimist i feel that in 3hours, there is no time to think. pick up pen and start writing. now if i know a question well, the relevant points usually start blinking in my mind which are incorporated in answer. In other questions, im hard wired to write intro body conclusion. By the time intro is done, some points usually enter my point. That will make answer average (i think). But in any case, all questions are to be answered.
don't go with extreme statement pal. people have cleared this exam and scored first rank despite leaving few questions. people have failed to enter interview despite answering all. your extreme statement may misguide other fresh aspirants so be careful with choice of words. your last sentence is extreme.
@Capedcrusader1 While attempting all questions is always advisable, it is not a necessity. I mean leaving any question for want of time is unpardonable but leaving questions for which you have simply no idea is not a sin as such. I know people who have gotten top 50 ranks with 18/19 attempts in GS.
that's my point. extreme statements tend to confuse freshers who may take such unnecessary sentences seriously and brain-train themselves to attempt all. Ira singhal mam scored first rank and she concedes that she skipped questions she didn't know.
my whole point is to avoid extreme statements not only in prelims exam but also in real life.
@masteroptimist also, if you dont attempt like 2 questions completely, you basically left arounf 4x2 =8 marks per paper if you left 10 marker and likewise for 15 marker. Now, while writing an average answer is not a herculean task in itself, completing all 20 questions is a huge difficulty. Unless you answered those 18 questions to the best possible way there is (by taking more time ofcourse), leaving questions is nothing less than suicidal. and exceptions are not rule.
forget leaving questions, even failing entire exam isn't suicidal, there's life beyond this exam. let's agree to disagree
In some questions I have not written conclusion, mostly 10 marker. Will that affect my marks?Nothing to worry..
Time crunch is so much that we tend to forget key points sometimes leave alone the conclusion..
In the microfinance question.. I knew that malegam committee is related to it and I should mention it.. so I wrote in the question paper to write it in the body of the answer..
And guess what..
When I finished the paper and submitted it I saw the question paper again to realise that I missed writing it..
So what is done cannot be undone.. that's the beauty of the exam..
It's a race which u must enjoy and not feel pain due to minor shortcomings
now i realise how tough competition is. malegam didn't even cross my mind😂😂
Ok. didn't even touch the Hindu (or any newspaper in that regard).

Opposition was raising the matter of rising unemployment in the country but how can there be no employment generation when the size of the GDP, FDI, and number of unicorns have increased multiple times in the country.
Thoughts ?
Hello All, 2022 is my last attempt. Never qualified prelims. Largely due to less mock and less time devoted to it.
I am a working professional. Have covered all GS paper syllabus roughly. Made notes of some topics (mostly GS2 and GS3). Have written 8 mock tests of Vision , but not in stipulated time.
Should I be focussed on prelims only from now? I am in dilemma because even after pre, 3 months are quite less.
Any suggestions ? Mains written/qualified people ?
if you have never cleared prelims as you mentioned and this is your last attempt as you mentioned and if you are still thinking about mains and getting confused as you mentioned then god bless you.
@zombieland agreed. newspaper function is to only induce a feeling of a good citizen now.anyway, can anyone help me with ethics "examples from personal life" part of the ethics deal. is there any topper notes from where i can get "examples from personal life".
bhai there is a topper anudeep durishetty. he has a wonderful blog on internet called conquering gs. i got some help from him in ethics.
@masteroptimist bhai mera kaam simple kardo _/\_because youve read the blog, does he address me concern
thoda khud se padho bhai😂😂
https://anudeepdurishetty.in/how-to-conquer-gs-in-upsc-mains-explained/
I recommend buying his essay ebook too, helped me to score 140+ (won't tell exact score) in essay 2020.
Guys, please share your wisdom of clearing prelims.
What in your opinion works always and why is it difficult for some ?
List of things absolutely essential to qualify prelims without worrying of result ? I have always been around border.
yes please get in touch with vishu Gupta this guys seems to be legit, you clearly need comprehensive guidance of any experienced person who has cleared the exam.
@masteroptimist You told about writing in paras. How was gs score ? And, all questions in para ? subheads ?
I was just joking, I never told write in para, I just said ""If"" you write in paragraph, last para automatically becomes conclusion
@masteroptimist how was your essay this year since all topics were abstract? Did anudeep's book help you?
How was my essay? Only ""Insiders"" know that. btw insiders also know when the life on earth will end, next financial crisis arise or who came first hen or egg.
@Declared_Dead Exactly, such precise infos show the credibility. 🤐 One such insider who is also admin in such groups and in past has given credible info told me about seeing his answer copies. 😌😌
I m unable to decipher whether it is statement in support of insiders or mockery of them...
That's not a statement in support. Clearly not, pal.
@masteroptimist 🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂
With the amount of absurdity regarding copy evaluation being discussed, someone should also come up and claim that the examiners roll dice and give marks accordingly. :)
Ese hi WhatsApp ne india me forwards limit nahi kie Log chahe pan ki dukan par baithe ya upsc ki tayyari kre, afwaahe (aisi baatein jinka evidence ya proof nahi hota) to failaenge😂😂
In 2019, i was confident of gs 1, was hoping to get 95, instead got 65, gs 2 went pathetic was expecting 60-70 and got 65 here too. There is simply no way I still can't compare how both the papers got similar marks.
But i have learnt one thing, that it's useless to think about marks once it's over. Sometimes feeling of elation after attempting may also be false. Better to simply focus on the task ahead and work for that, ie pre and interview prep, but we all know it's easier said than done.
What factors made u believe that you will score well in gs 1 in 2019..
How were your papers in 2020 and 2021...
I also came across a post somewhere.. the candidate was expecting 100+ .. drew 3 world maps for better presentation.. ended up getting 57 in gs 1..
""""""""drew 3 world maps for better presentation.. ended up getting 57 in gs 1.."""""""
to a person like me who drew zero flow charts, maps or diagrams in any paper, this gives me HOPE 😂😂
I believe it is easy to identify certain questions as tough.. like S400, GDP, WHO
But the other questions which we believe to have written well are not so simple and direct either..
It is the impression of familiarity with the questions which make us categorise the questions as tough or easy.. but marking pattern may be otherwise
totally agree, element of familiarity strongly shapes our opinions. we tend to consider familiar questions as automatically and hopelessly easy just like ***ghar ki (tandoori)murgi daal barabar(caves)***

Ye Kaun si line me aa gaye aap :p
First mains ,gave just iasbaba free mock a week before mains and few pyq on my ownIn the few mocks I wrote ,I was struggling to complete 17 questions (marks were around 80) due to time constraintsBut on the day of exam, I started attempting from 15 m and then 10m in GS ,in essay I just alloted 5 min for structure formationSurprisingly I completed all questions on time and had 9-10 minutes remaining during which I added any missing terms ,underlining double underlining heading and terms like it's done in schoolI'm sure that neither quality of answers nor handwriting was relevant and legible enoughThe person sitting next to me gave a weird look like how the heck you got time to underline stuff even in Ethics😬I know the marks cannot be predicted but I'm really afraid on finishing fast my papers although the average content and legible handwriting was there ,did anyone else experience similar surprising powers in exam hall ?This is great..
You are the first candidate I m coming across who claimed to have completed the papers 10 minutes before the scheduled time..
You can teach us on time management..
I also had the fortune of completing my second optional 10 minutes before time and guess what my score was below 100 in it 😂😂
Psir not doing well this year yeh speculation chl rhi h
Wo toh pichle 2 saal se History optional bani hui hai. While people in a thro are easily scoring 250, humare toppers 250-70 me fasse hue hai.
Edit - speculation ek dum galat hai. Meri gut feeling hai is bar PSIR me bhut log 300 paar 😆😆
Bhai tumhare muh me ghee shakkar
🤣😂 Mujhe bhi lag raha iss baar PSIR scores will jump! Mere nahi toh auro ka toh honge! 🤣
Bhai tumhara score bhi shandaar jump karega hoga I hope. He bhagwan psir me ultra liberal evaluation and marking rakhna😂😂😂
I critically examined your signature and realised it's ancient Sanskrit principle regarding excess of anything is bad. I would like to bring it to your notice that it's not "Vajrayet" but " Varjayet" and if you wish you may correct that "Great Ancient Hindu Dictum"
i have heard from some people that result could be due this week. Is it true? any one has any updates, i have exited all the telegram groups so im woefully unaware.That is just to make mahaul..
I don't think results will come before 20 March..
Looks like speculation season is peaking
Don't expect before march end..
SC may delay the result due to pending case..
The interests of those who missed the exam due to covid must be protected..
What was their mistake in this..
Think about those whose last attempt got affected adversely..
This is gross injustice.. mains should be conducted again for those who have solid evidence of covid positive and missed the exam.
and what about those who gave the exam? is it correct to let them wait and waste their time for a few who missed the exams probably for not following covid protocols else how will you get covid obviously?
If I used hindi/sanskrit quotes in devnagari script in the essay, while the medium opted was English..
Will it backfire??
Only 2 such quotes used.. regretted later
you are very lucky that I came across your post. i used one quote (shloka) in intro in 2020 essay, scored above average,so it won't backfire rest assured
guys whats up with ganging up on someone like that?
preaching morals with unnecessay quotes. how about learn to take others views too?
im in no way speaking for him, but what if he knew those questions others didnt know?
I have deep respect for you to stand up against this moral preaching. these "Ambassadors of cosmetic morality" and their attempts to stifle freedom of speech and expression by forming "Cartels of Morality" online on such forums has ruined everything.
Never ever abandon your freedom of speech and expression under cumulative pressure of any "snowflakes"
Excuse me folks..
I m not trying to be arrogant here..
Someone asked about my mains ,,so I said..
I m not claiming any rank.. I am guessing my performance in quantitative manner.. that's all..
I have tried my best this year..
Already scored 135, 141 in essay in earlier attempts..
258 in optional..
So please don't blame me for being overconfident..
I have said what I feel about my performance..
I don't mean to hurt sentiments of anyone..
I don't understand one thing..
People saying that I ruined my paper.. everyone gives sympathy to the person..
If someone says that I did well.. people will start labelling him/her ..
"If someone says that I did well.. people will start labelling him/her"
three words may explain this behaviour of people labelling you- Disbelief Frustration Jealousy.
don't ruin your mood for such people, you did nothing wrong. kuch toh log kahenge logon ka kaam he kehna😂😂😊
GS1 main
Ab balak log vishvaas karte nahin toh main bata deta hun kaun se chhodde
1. Persian Literary sources 15 marks
2. Indian Phlio and tradition 15 marks
3. PALA period (10marker)
4.circumpacific zone (10 marker)
Yeh waale
Apologies it was 50 marks . I accept the error
I think leaving a few questions may actually have a positive impact. it may show you as honest person not messing up with questions you don't and also make evaluator's task easy . obviously not glorifying skipping questions but don't find it making any sense to attempt them if you are not prepared. devoting that time to other questions has always been my stand.
I think the thread will touch 100 pages today for sure...
Discussion has become pretty interesting with someone expecting 800+ marks..
We were sympathising each other for average performance.. now grilling someone for performing a bit above our expectations...
Keep it up folks...
like i said, 3 words Disbelief Frustration Jealousy
@WaitingForResult2021 Bhai mera optional History tha maine toh attempt kiye the , 78 aaye XD
you wrote that paper in point or para
can anyone tell me whats a dkt?
its been in news for quite sometime now
ok on basis of my understanding on this issue, I think dkt probably points towards a person who claimed to have scored very very very good in upsc main. i have reason to believe that probably that person didn't score as well as they claimed. also I feel before results were declared, that person showed passion in claiming that his papers went well.
but this is just the way i tried to make sense of things the way i did of *MODERNISATION THESIS* in psir optional paper 2, the term I read first time in the paper yet chose to solve that 20 marker😂😂
@Capedcrusader1 https://forumias.com/post/detail/Mains-2019-Preparation-and-Discussion-Thread-1580458229?user=Diwakar100He is DKT !! Read all the comments made by him thereVery interesting Guy tbhAlso See his reply to beavancom !!They both were rage in 2019
sire, in the paper of gs1 last year that you scored 78, could you please let me know if you answered that paper in points of para, there's a very relevant reason for me asking this seemingly dull question
@WaitingForResult2021 Actually, he shared the first few digits here. Then, boys were aware he appeared in Delhi. So, it became easier for them. To confirm, he was using initial letters of his names like many of us do and name also matched.
those "boys" should be provided "lateral entry" to "special crime branch" asap 😂😂
@masteroptimist Bhai reason bata do jo bahut relevant hain ?? I am curious
bhai no relavant reason, just to stir curiosity in you to get my answer sooner

is type ki baatein us telegram group pe ho rahi he. ye kidhar ja raha he desh ka yuva😂😂
I went through the gs 3 question paper again today and found that it was indeed difficult.. each question had multiple dimensions.. I now feel I could have added many additional points which is necessary for decent marking..
Scoring 100 in GS 3 won't be easy.. rest let the results come to see to what extent our predictions are correct..
Bro you are taking unnecessary and unwarranted stress. Too much worry will only cast into ruins your peace of mind . It's your last attempt I guess so there's no point of looking at main paper again as you won't be writing it ever again. So chill and plan for interview and future exams.
There is something interesting and noteworthy..
I estimated my marks around 800..
I was called DKT PART 2.. Overconfident and what not..
Someone here expecting around 840.. but all praises to him.. and no labelling like DKT part 3 or something..
Anyways.. world works like this.. so no complaints..
I'm also estimating my marks to be 800 (not actually 800 but general category equivalent vis a vis my category)
@Philip_Marlowe HISTORY optional main 280 ka daawa .we will watch your career with great interest DKT3
history optional is the easiest subject of the world, I may ace it with 21% consciousness. psir is most difficult subject of the multiverse, you cannot capture it... even "Lucy" with her 100 percent consciousness couldn't do it. the reason is because of the "intrinsic creative intellect considerations" that dominate the scoring parameters especially in paper 2 of international relations. in subjects like history we answer same boring questions of past but in psir we essentially deal with "hyperdynamic fragments of fluid realities" that continue to alter the discourses, perceptions and aspects of continuity of life. It's this playing the games of time and attempting to design future predictions fusing past and present with logic and knowledge that requires in-depth talent. History can be aced with books PSIR requires not the books but you to think afresh and create new intellectual content. PSIR is god level subject, history at best, may be a spartan.
@masteroptimist Lucy kaun hain ab ?
No one, i just used it to stir extra interest in this otherwise lame post
