[Results] Prelims 2020 Over - Gearing for 2021
Because of the corona virus issue? If it does not happen then worst affected will be people whose interview is stuck, around 600-700 such people I think are yet to appear for their interview.
@neyawn sir and others, what is your take?
This is the official Thread for discussion of Prelims Postponement, Please do not create new threads for the same.
Bhai, I believe you should take up a job, if you get. If not go for some other exam and try to clear it. Matlab jo apko lage aap nikal sakte ho kam time mein.I think skip karne mein hi zyada benefit hai. Is cycle se nikal jao.Meanwhile upsc ko part time prepare karte raho, don't neglect it totally. Part time I mean write 2 answers daily, read optional and newspaper ye sab 2 hours mein hota hai, agar sab pehle padha ho to. Baki sirf revision aur value addition karo through writting.And gradually 2022 tak saare content achese banalo, notes taiyar karo, optional ethics sab sort karo.And most importantly find the reason why you failed. I mean sit with all past 5 years papers, aur jot down karo, ki kitne total attempt hue, kitne easy question galat hue jo sabke sahi hote hai. Question approach karte waqt kaisa mindset hota hai aapka. I believe it is not the knowledge but confidence and approach jisse aapka pre nahi hua pehle.
Okay Brother..
Thanks A lot for your Suggestions

Sir, Plz Share your Strategy for prelims in 5 points.It would be highly appreciated.
I think on following lines based on my personal experience only. May not apply to all and fully. May sound preachy or absurd like coaching gurus. please spare me in anonymity.
1. Read past year papers(5 years, downloaded pdfs not any readymade book in market) and be thorough about pattern of questions.
2. Never prepare for prelims only and not according to coachings. Dedicate last one month only for prelims before that dont make too much noise about pre. If you have money get one test series and do not bother about others.
3. Read one news paper daily. And keep prelims papers in mind to see what can be a questions and ans. , side by side google search will be needed. Only minimum notes that feel you forget. Prepare code or have some photographic memory at once and leave. Cover fast and only according to past questions depth. No need to spend to much time on details. See basics as year, other facts do not write . read mindfully thing ll come in exam. Rest notes in market for current in last ll do.
4. Basic books and NCERT are must everybody knows. Here also one must keep in mind syllabus and past questions. Both pre and mains. Last one month in pre focus you can revise things you consider difficult like ancient for me.
5. Last in minimum time go through one compilation like 365 or insights to avoid any you miss and for general parity. One cycle of one test series to be done. No revision of tests, just remember what mistakes you did and what you forgot.
one more point in exam hall...Sleep well .Dont panic, avoid questions you feel no body will be able to answer. Play according to merit of paper and your strengths. Read questions and all options completely for speed you must have seen past papers and tests.
I agree with you,i too was confident because of getting 105-110 and csat too was above average score but i am shocked since last 24 hours.Why the hurry this time?what they did extra to prepone the result from expected 30-40 day average?And if this was possible why they didn't did in 2019 and 2018?@MC Cullum Don't know bro. I have never doubted the processes before. I always try to cross check my omr info before handing over to invigilators. But still inexplicable thing happened with me this time. Being on margins and failing is less painful compared to this totally shocking result.
