Post mains results, what would be your strategy?

@AzadHindFauzsaid inPost mains results, what would be your strategy?:

@ManchesterUnitedI second you bhai. I tried to focus on quality and so, couldn't complete around 50 marks in GS. It showed in the result.

I completed papers decently well.. Have missed 2017, 2018 Cutoffs by single digit. This time wrote many tests, flowcharts, diagrams, headers, pointers.. 3 Hours time period ke hisaab se accustomed myself.

Except GS-1 and Socio Paper,-2 all went well according to my expectations. But made a point to write decent stuff and complete paper even in these two papers.

But still out ! Now again clueless.. Feeling as if preparing from scratch again..

@ManchesterUnitedDid you draw many diagrams, flow charts in GS 1234?
I recall I did it only for geography questions! I think that I should brainstorm more to make my answers look attractive with flow charts and diagram.

If diagram and flowcharts is a criteria to clear, then i made them and still didn't make it.?

Last attempt for me.. Anyone based in ORN and on final attempt willing to collaborate.. Preferably Socio optional.

Of the limited experience i have with the exam and from the multiple people i have spoken to who have made, optional is what stands out.
One can manage to score average above average with decent content and completion of paper.
Most of us who were confident with GS, in my opinion, would have faltered in optional.
The only difference GS papers can make is a) if you have screwed them up really bad b) if you are really good in any of them (GS4 may be)

I agree.. Optional 300+ has become a necessity..!!

How did the optional go for all you ?
And what are your thoughts regarding some optionals being small while some being lengthy(in terms of syllabus) ?

bhai mera paper-1 acha gaya tha.. paper-2 mujhe tough laga tha.. in the exam hall i decided ki paper complete karna hain decently.. then paper-2 baakiyon ko bhi tough laga tha..

@HermioneGrangerI have seen people joining answer writing post pre and clearing the exam.thus is it ideal to practise ans writing for around 2 months only?

i am tired of Test series.. mujhe lagta hain mera dimaag hi kam hain.. i can't interpret questions properly as per demand of exam.

@STThis exam can do that to you. Making you feel inadequate like you’re just not good enough. I guess we all should take our time to come out of it.
Ps- I am pretty much tired with the conventional test series myself. There’s no coherent reviewing. And there is no personal guidance. Clueless!

Take time.. but get back to hustle soon.

@STprelims k liye test series konsi sahi hai except vision. Insights is just waste of time. Drishti achi lagi but only 20 test

Vision, forum, insights daily CA and daily static, Baba daily aur baba 60 day.. Be regular with them.

Aur Vision ki pichle saal ki revise kar lena..

Not really sure about the qulaity of feedback and questions.

@STaur fir nahi hua to?Ya agle attempt ke baad interview mein rehearsal gaye to?Fir to 3 saal ka gap aa jayega.

After mourning for 1 day I have decided:
My edu background is good but I do not wish to go in private sector as have come from there.
So for the meantime will join a small private firm which will give time for studies.
Will give other govt. Exams with this job (have already done cat so aptitude isn't a problem) and will also prepare for upsc as base for upsc has been built.I couldn't get selected this time as I had content but 0 ans writing practise and not revising static books like spectrum between pre and mains.Socio to theek hai.
2020 mein umeed hai koi to govt exam nikal jayega (umeed pe duniya kaayam hai) fir I will leave this private job and will prepare for upsc with that govt. Job.
Preparing without job is very risky I have realized..Many of my seniors prepared full time but couldn't clear.Unka base ban gaya tha then they were able to clear with job.
Kaafi logon se aisa kiya like megha arora.
Umeed yahi hai..

So will you attempt 2020 or not?

@bevancomI missed out by 2 marks in mains last year. I had 293 last time around in socio. Last year was very sure of atleast getting an interview call. Iss baar sab ache se kia tha. Socio went quite well, even better than last year. Out again. No idea what happened. Aisa lag raha andhere me teer chala raha hu.

Deja Vu.. I also got 772 marks with 282 in Socio. Same feeling as u wrote in last 3 lines. Out again?☹

@ManchesterUnited@STand others, whats a decent score in a mock essay?

Bhai I m not qualified enough to give advice.

But more than marks work on structure and improve upon shortcomings as suggested by your mentor. Keep improving and u will shine on D-Day !! All the best?
