@srivalliguru940 Sir to be honest last time I was scoring 106 from the toppers key but got 90.47  when UPSC released the marksheet. This year getting 105.66 from Topper's key but from other keys like Shankar, Forum, Baba getting 100 & from Vision Getting 97.33. So taking the least possible score as the real score.

True this year who got in 70s can make it to the list …and who got 90s (from coaching answer keys) may be out of the race ….most probably some questions will be deleted same as last year 

Only one that's wrong is devi lal,even then no one knows they would delete it or not.

yeah I got it sir. But honestly, few answers of vision and Shankar seem to be incorrect. Because I generally look into these ambiguous questions in detail and come to some conclusion. And to my knowledge, vision and Shankar have overthought on few questions :)

Last 4-5 lines. That's why 2nd statement may be wrong I guess

casual workers - 2 and 3 (considered wrong)
arcot - only 3 (certainly wrong)
pressure cooker - 1,2,3 (considered wrong)
copper smelting - 1,2,3 (considered wrong)
river- chenab (considered right)
constitutional bench - 1 only (considered wrong)
liberty- (separation of power) (considered right)

@srivalliguru940 yeah 10 marks difference is possible in keys of coaching institutes and UPSC, but I guess topper's answer key will have a higher difference with UPSC as to how everyone scoring well from that particular key only.

@harilal I think all your considerations are correct.

Anyone please tell me....in fig tree question of paper 2.....in the passage it's written, that fig trees are present in urban and agricultural landscapes where other large trees are absent. Why can't I say that fig trees grow where other large woody species are absent. 


Option -1,3 and4 is right only.....but statement 2 also has some weight yaar

Bhai 2 is wrong...

Cut off is around 89+-1 but now because of reevaluation with different key cut off can either go up or down ..

Re evaluation

Pressure cooker ques

Possibilities of wrong ans taken as correct in official key

Puri uppsc wali vibes aane lagi ab toh. 

Shayad is baar delhi walo ne prayagraj me kaam outsource kr dia hai.

How are people knowing the cutoff n all. Knowing that the result is coming is one thing but knowing cutoff 89+-1 is a too much info. Any possibility of it being correct.. Aise hua toh shayad hi nikle mera..
