hey, you seem to be experienced. What do you think about the cut off marks this time ? Do you really see many people scoring above 95/100 ?

I feel Vision answer key is most genuine this time. Not much will vary from vision.

Article 14 embodies the Rule of Law. Theabsence of arbitrary poweris the basic requirement for Rule of law. Therefore any legislation which may confer unguided and uncontrolled powers upon the executive violates Article 14.

@srivalliguru940 honest review as you all know paper was tougher than previous one...... I know 25-30 people personally but none is scoring above 90 including experienced ones....so cut off will be equal or less than last year as i dont see any specific reason to see it on higher side

Just wondering what can be EWS cutoff this time.

2019, it was 90.

2020, it was 77.

Will it be in 80s this time, or go down to 60s or 70s.

Highly variable.

The mahaul is very different this time. People scoring in the range of 80s or around 85 are trying to be optimistic and getting their hopes up with any disputed question going in their favour. On the other hand, people scoring above 95 or even 100 are not able to focus on Mains prep because they are too unsure of getting through. Makes you wonder if it really was an MCQ based test or a subjective test!

TW - conspiracy theory

Some months ago there was news of a certain individual using little known shell companies to channelise money into his overvalued stocks. Nothing came out of it . No raids, no investigations , just a few statements by SEBI and then complete lull.

Is Indian state a guardian of corporate interests? Are there any Koch brothers in India operating in the background and pushing economic libertarianism? Are electoral bonds the vehicle for Koch-isation of Indian politics? Were Corporate tax cuts from 30% to 22% done to reward the Koch Brothers of India . Critically comment.
