and by the way, UPSC does not just pick up question out of thin air and make a paper out of them. There is whole examination wing dedicated to selection of topics, preparation of questions, setting the options, and answer keys, thereby setting the question's difficulty to desired level. Afaik, UPSC has never revised its keys in its history of conducting examinations. This might happen often in state PCS exams but not in UPSC. UPSC is cunning,it is shrewd, it is unpredictable, butwhat it is not isWrong.
Refer to this official Document of UPSC. It lays down the procedure for evaluation of Mains QCA booklets.Is upsc mains copy checked by a single evaluator or different experts evaluate different sections?
Read Question number 55 onwards.

I am concerned with CSP-2021 result, in which I appeared. IFoS ka result is like a roadblock for CSP-2021@muskI did not even clear CSP-2020, let alone the cutoff of IFoS(P)
aapka question dekh k laga ki aapki neend gayab ho rhi hogi result ke chakkar me... yaha to aap aiwe chakkar maar rhe ho.. Sorry for poor joke
No use of speculation. Study hard and make best of the time you have in hand@Negan by 29 at least??
A is also definitely wrong. Palestine is also a state, but it is not independent of external Control (Israel).@sushil_21 B is not right, I marked B too out of hurry. But it’s wrong. It nowhere mentions bicameralism. It says elected representatives from constituent units. Even Lok Sabha members are elected representatives are these units. So no B is definitely wrong.
@Negan oh if that’s for state, then yeah it’s definitely A. I was talking about federalism one
State wala is definitely not A.
And regarding "essential feature that indicates India is federal in character" is definitely A
Because Palestine is also a state, but it is not independent of external Control (Israel).@Negan why not A for state?
Main kab se yehi bol raha hu. No CSP-2021 result tomorrow also.. Kyunki pehle IFoS-2020 ka final result aayega.Result not possible before 30th: Kaptaan
Now all go and sleep peacefully!
Edit: Also, today was last day to check the CSM-2020(qualified) and also CSM(not qualified) marksheet. UPSC ko apne servers pe zyada load dena acha nahi lagta. So, probably, tomorrow IFoS-2020 ka final result aa jaye.
How is he consistent? Did his info regarding result day was bang on in CSP-2020??All insiders failed except@javelinthrow ,this guy was consistent
Plot Twist: Kaptaan hi Javelinthrow hai, aur Javelinthrow hi Godi Media haidoes he have independent sources like that hallowed journalist who found a third floor in a 2 floor building XD@Negan whatever info@javelinthrow provided is correct.kaptaan godi were flip-floping and lied to save their faces
So, my earlier opinion that IFoS-2020 will be declared before CSP-2021 results came out, has been changed based on this new observation
Do one thing.kal aa rha h fir?
Step 1. In morning around 11 AM, call UPSC. if they reply that 'Website dekhte rahiye'' then it will definitely be coming tomorrow. If they dont say such or say like 'next week aayega', even then dont take it at its face value.
Step 2. Call UPSC again between 3 to 5 in evening. If they say that "website dekhte rahiye," then my friend, tomorrow will be the D-Day.
Haha.. CSE wale hain hum@Negan waah aapne to algorithm crack kar liya results laane ka..
ForumIAS has seen all shades of apirants- Serious, Show-Offs, Witty, Vulgar, Nervous, Confident, Overconfident,Optimist, Pragmatic, Eristic, Successful, Unsuccessful, and so forth.
Oversmart aspirants like@masteroptimistalways fly high before the CSP results, but nowhere to be seen after the results. I hope, he takes a lesson from this friendly banter, and shows more sincerity in future
I don't have a clue.
Here's a hypothetical way in which an institute can predict the cutoff ->take a poll of a large number of aspirants, asking for their marks on the basis of one particular key. Take a certain percentage of the scores (say top 5-6%). This method works if you've been doing this for years. So if in the past 4 years, the cutoff score was similar to the score your top 6% of respondents were getting, then taking the score of the top 6% this year too might give a good enough prediction.
This would be a proper data based cutoff prediction. But what we're seeing is multiple entities making multiple claims based on their arguments or subjective experiences.
The problem isn't that the arguments are wrong. I've seen some really convincing arguments on this platform from people on both extremes i.e. those predicting 85 as cutoff as well as 100 as cutoff. I wouldn't call their predictions random. They're well thought out. But so are the opposing claims.
When conflicting arguments and reasons arise, only data can tell the truth. Everything else is just conjecture.
And that's the fundamental problem here. None of us have enough data. We just know the scores of people in our peer group as well as some 30-40 odd aspirants who have posted here. And there's no compelling reason to assume that this is representative of the entire population of serious candidates.
So yeah. I don't think it's wise for me to give any sort of prediction for the cutoff. I wouldn't be surprised if it's drastically different from whatever the popular consensus is, although it's more likely that the majority is right. Sorry if this doesn't satisfy you or calm your anxiety :P
I have been foretelling cutoffs, through experience for past 2 years with acceptable accuracy.
CSP-2019 cutoff predicted= 98+2/3 (actual-98)
CSP-2020 cutoff predicted= 91-95 (actual-92)
CSP2021 cutodd prection= 88-91 (actual- next year hi pata lagega)
This is not to brag about myself but to help calm the nerves of some fellow aspirants who are feeling edgy in these testing times. here is the proof.
Don't know.. we will soon find out
