Prelims 2024 GS Paper How many questions did you attempt?
jack_Sparrow,
Just a reminder: Usually the ones sitting at home find the paper VERY EASY.
My take: Paper was not EASY per se but it lacked the shock factor that usually wrecks the nerves of the aspirants. This is why people are "FEELING GOOD" about this paper in general.
The period from the prelims to the next 2-3 days is a very vague zone where nobody knows whether paper is easy or not or what the cutoff will be. As we know that UPSC is no less than a war and you can see things clearly only once the dust has settled.
Let people check the answer keys and only then we'll get to know how much the cutoff will be.
It is advisable to go on a trip or vacation away from this UPSC space. You'll be able to gather the strength to study intensely for Mains only when your mind is rejuvenated. However, this should be done quickly as the gap for the Mains is already one of the lowest.

cut off will shoot definitely. It is the easiest paper in past 5 years.. even though I didn't appear because I fell in the washroom n had a blackout.. cut off should be around 100 this year.. what other members feel..

i disagree, because this year around 7-8 extreme statement questions + other conventional option elimination tricks (ex- assuming data, organisation, etc to be incorrect) turned out to be correct, so i believe theinvisible handof upsc will do its moderation. Same reason why PYQs always seem a cakewalk but are otherwise unsolvable in exam conditions, trust me when i say this, but i'vealwaysscored the highest in the papers i never appeared for.
I hope you're health is better now, please take some rest, though you didn't appear today but i'm sure you've worked hard the entire year. All the best buddy!
