The currency used by all coaching hubs to buy out any legitimate apprehension in the minds of young students regarding the unfairness of the process: motivation. They motivate you to aspire for exclusivity, make you believe that the achievement is associated with your self-worth, assume that the world is a level playing field, and meritocracy is the fair counterpart of an otherwise unfair system. 

The show encourages the audacity to dream, as if the reason people don’t get into UPSC is not itslimited intakebut because they don’t “believe in themselves.”

Just a thought on meritocracy after seeing 2021 Pre exam. 

True.Its a trap to ensnare naive people.

Bhai  Coaching start karne ka Irada hai kya future me... Yaa fir It is side hustle only.

The most of New coachings who cropped up in every nook and corner of ORN started from pitching in on Forum ias .. then whatsapp free help groups --- then.. master become popular as underdog of market --- then.. Master joins few coaching big ones for few days .... Then Master quits like a Roadie in the eyes of aspirants (followers ) ...starts  his own neccasnt institute.. ---Provides lit of free help on nominal charges ---Ab koi na koi select hota hai vo kisi bhi coaching ka koi program subscribe kar hi leta hai --+Master gets a poster boy in AIR even if that AIR guy just had attended two or three tests or just 7 days CAPSULE/JaDI booti type class. 

So master got poster boy ---Flocks start coming in. Master now become a Content curater(whereas he should be tge teacher) --Curated content sells at image runner or atul or circulation on whatsapp and telegram ---Aspirants got new hope ki kuch naya free mila --- Then , Master make sales pitch by announcing many modules and capsules and tablets and  qep or dep cep or anything u call. 

Master Mints money. Now .. Master is big shot. Now master become Tony Montana of Scarface with Lot of BALLS .. unreachable now to aspirants.

Master closes all free whatsapp groups. Master deny to identify followers who are close to them. Master then master succinctly raises rates of his CAPSULES citing costs incurred. aspirant have soft heart they enroll at high rates again. Now .  Master got one or two more AIR poster boy in two or 3 years. Now Master wish to launch an empire. Master starts foundation course . Master starts AI learning. Master go self maglomaniac and now claims He know UPSC in and out. Now, Aspirants have projector class with no interaction to ORIGINAL master But CHELA teachers are there taking classes.

Master curates all kind of products cakes, sugar candies, hajmola and caters all kind of customers in market .. ameer gareeb bhula bhatka dukhi khush tej aur bewkoof ... every type of aspirant has something to choose from catalog produced by the Salesman sitting at front desk of corporate office !!

Now , Master has an empire. 


So, Every coaching empire starts with free and nominal service. 

Examples so many.

Being wishful - Start preparing for mains but dont put money in it.  Its 50-50 chance to be honest. 

Being realistic - Move on with what happened .. and pitch for 2022 pre in correct way but before that reflect and introspect on 2021 prep. Dont be hard or yourself for not getting things right in 2021. Just reflect a bit scientifically and note down on paper... Find your angle and work for 2022.

Noone knows the definitive answers for many questions. Instead of running after the quest of finding correct answers just average out your marks from different keys and if your score lies above the cutoff going around in the market these days then study for mains. Because the cutoff coachings are suggesting are based on their keys only so if any answer changes unexpectedly which no coaching is suggesting then the actual cutoff will change accordingly. So no need to fret over it. I wasted a lot of this precious time last year over this and it showed in my mains result. You will regret this time lost regardless if you make it to mains or not.

@RAGNAROK I guess you are asking for CSAT. If it is maths, reasoning I guess nextias is decent except for 1 wrong answer in pattern waala question. For English, given the inherent subjectivity, no one can be sure.

@mounikamouni24_h944 I am as clueless as you are regarding this issue. It is upto UPSC now. Personally, I feel you would get 3 (or perhaps 4) out of those 8 right.
