[Results] Prelims 2020 Over - Gearing for 2021

I stopped checking coaching centers keys since last year. they have been wrong in more than 5 questions consistently which is very costly in this game.

So i have checked all sources continuously. didnt stop till i get proper source for a question.

this year my guess is these 4 questions can change fate as these are very big trap questions.

1. AI

2. NALSA

3. Preamble

4. NFD

Rest all are ok with proper sources. These are most twisted questions. Will change fate of many.

@Udit_pathak To be frank bhai, Cut off will be 97-98. It wont go less than that. My gut feeling. even 97-98 is very less cutoff.

UPSC has made it sure that u can't have any error in easy questions ....50 percent paper will be easy and 50 percent tough ..if u make mistakes in easy portion u will have to take risk by attempting tougher questions where ur luck matters and nothing else..we all r discussing rukmabai , deshar ktha and vithal vidhwansak but in reality none of ur was aware of anything ....

kohliwag,

@Equalizer 88.22 bro considering AI and blockchain are correct. still need 2 correct at least to get 93+

apni kismat inn questions pr depend krti hai-

1) gene (eliminated 1st option)

2) tbill (marked 3only)

3)price of rice (eliminated govt trading )

4)current account surplus(marked 3only)

5) 1991- marked 3only.

6) bureaucracy ko widening of parliamentary democracy

7)biochar (eliminated promotes the growth of microorganisms because found a similar kind of statement in 2015 and it was wrong as per ans key) - yet to find proper answer of this.

@Fightclub

I don't think so ...however what ever we may think it's of no use...but when I talk to experienced Maine players they r saying they r not getting even 90 ...so brother it can be anything

gauravbrly409,

Only 40 questions were doable for an average candidate rest depends on ur deeper understanding

If u did searched properly, what's the answer in ur opinion in nalsa question.

pantheratigris .

@Fightclub add to that list the minister question and nalsa question I belive forum has settled the debate on 1 and 2 only...still lets see we never know and in fact at present also I feel aadhar is also very much doubtful question which not much people are talking about.

bernoullitrials .

in AI question for option 5, those charging devices which do not require wire, you just place your phone on a pad or something, won't it be an example

rishi258 .

@Fightclub bhai then what is permissioned blockchain? This is also given in niti ayog doc.

Rice u will be correct. Among T bill and 1991 High chances of at least one getting correct.

Saala sab Kuch doubtful hi tha ,,, ye doubt wale questions mains mein puchte... Students are discussing so much details it means students have the skills of know what is going in country..upsc should avoid such conflicting questions which can have a three hour discussion in supreme court itself...we are prelims student not any supreme court judge to give opinion under advisory jurisdiction

@Equalizer

I will explain,

1) Person with income less than 1lakh - This is without any doubt correct. because every state has mentioned it explicitly all over india with different income criteria but min being 1 lakh in all states.

2) Transgender with income less than 2 lakh - Delhi has notified this. i havent found any proper source for all india level implementation.

3) outright wrong

4) All senior citizens - this is the twist. NALSA, 2016 scheme is exclusively explicitly mentioned for Senior citizens. NALSA scheme for Seniro citizens. You can google it easily. Irony is that not a single mention of This scheme in any scheme by any one in coaching centers and they might have not known about its existence. Its an all india scheme. But All senior citizens who are eligible under section 12 of LSA 1987. but when i see the section 12, there is no explicit limit for Senior citizens is there.

I have marked 1&2 by thinking "All" in 4 will be wrong. But more logically as asked " In india" Question, All over, answer should be 1&4.

Every beneficiary should be subject to Section 12 of act, 1987 so its in general. All senior citizens is clearly mentioned in NALSA act 2016. So I think upsc will shock us all with 1&4.

Zoraawar,

@rishi258 Bhai, In general , Block chain doesn't require any permission. People like me can do almost anything with tech.

AI, in general, Cannot do wireless transmission. That's the difference. Don't force the issue. I know it hurts. I have lost the cut off with one mark in final list. I know the pain. But its better to accept it than keeping.

Resav_Singh .

@beginn371316 yes bro, there is confusion because of civilian word. But i think upsc will go with D. I myself has marked B. This question like many others is vaguely worded. Rural employment growth has increased since 1991. There was a report of ILO regarding rural economy India employment status which showed data from 1991 to 2003 which clearly showed that rural employment increased by 1 percent per year and non farm sector in particular in rural economy increased by more than 1 percent during that period. You can google the report and check.

I have marked 1&4 but logically it appears 1&2. U see all senior citizens are not eligible in delhi, there is some income criterion. So I think 4 is wrong. Regarding transgender I could not find reliable source. Many state has not mentioned it.

@Equalizer I think here the catch is All "Senior Citizens" means greater than 60 years. All includes that. But as i said. those four questions will turn the tables of many. UPSC will give shock this to "All" people :D

NALSA 2016 didnt mention any income criteria and its all over india. Thats the strong point for Option D. Lets see.

Shramjeevi_express .

No permission is required for block chain is 100% settled thing (Because few days back I read in TH that telangana or AP government used block chain technology in LAND RECORDS, SO obviously it don't require any permission to develope such programings/algos). Crypto currency is just an application/part of block chain technology not the block chain itself.

Aur ek Gajab Cheez, NFD. Dekhna hain iska kya answer hoga.

How treasury bills and My houseloan and credit card are same? I need to see this interesting answer. Iska v all diya toh... aur next prelims mein sochne ka jaroorat nahi. sab D maarke aajata hun. Paper setter banunga upsc ka tab toh :P Sab se easy and useless kaam hain kyunki sochke options banaane ka jaroorat hi nahi

Chalukya,
