[Results] Prelims 2020 Over - Gearing for 2021

What are the answers for 

1. P >Q,R and S is not the largest question ?

2. R is S's Wife is the option correct or Should it be none of the above ?

3. Intersection of circle and square minimum and maximum points ?

Please some answer them, pura CSAT is dependent on these for me. There are different answers from different keys. Someone good at these please finalize ?

Opened this by mistake. Saw your question. 

Hope it will solve your query. 


About no. 3. I wrote None of the above. But then Shankar gave something else. So, I consider it wrong. 


Iske according C hai na PQRS waale ka? 

Seems b now. Bhai ne solution bhi diya tha.  I marked D. Ab toh I think it's time to mark my answer wrong

I think out of all the available keys for CSAT KSG is the most reliable this year with least errors.  Does anyone feel the same ?

Very tensed

Scoring 112 in GS

But in CSAT probably on border

Nextias- 67.75

Vajiram- 71.75

Shankar-71.75

Pata nahi kya hoga??

Bhai log clear hoga kya?

Last attempt 😚🤔

Bhai exactly in the same situation. Though In Gs 1 I have 106 and I belong to ST. Patha Nahi CSAT kya hone wala hai. Couldn't even focus on mains. Mostly clear hojayega. I would say 99 % clear  hone ka chances hai as my in all my previous attempts I got >10 marks added with upsc key in CSAT always ( assuming it happens with most of the people).

@BKB same here bhai....padhai pe focus nhi ho rha....ab sab Bhagwan aur Upsc ke bharose hai.....it's very dangerous to be on the border...


Yeah. we have nothing left to do. Either we worry or not, Either we get tensed or not, Either we hate oneself for committing silly mistakes or not the result is not going to be changed. It's already done so let's try to keep calm, pray and continue mains preparation.

There are 9 comprehension wrong answers according to shankar key in 2018 and it was 5 in 2019 ( as some of answers in shanakar key gave two answers, one of them turned out to be correct ) when compared with final key. So it's not yet conclusive about RCs and their answers. Abhi toh consider you are in the race. 3 questions in your favour will get you almost 10 marks. (2.5+0.8)  *3

Bhai yeh data kaha se aaya 9 and 5 wala....

Checked for RC's with their keys and compared with final keys of upsc.

2018  shankar key : https://www.iasparliament.com/uploads/downloads/CSAT_Preliminary_2018_Final.pdf

2019 shankar key : https://www.iasparliament.com/uploads/downloads/Prelims_2019_CSAT_Key-Series_D_www.iasparliament.com.pdf

Compared them with upsc final keys. Most of the assumption questions went wrong with this key.

Need to get 36 to clear it 

22 quant are correct and need 14 more rc. 

Getting 14 correct with Aurang key ,  vision,  shankar, csat mantra (15) , vajiram (15),KSG 

And only 10 with CL.  

What are my chances?  I know its only upsc that is final. But still I'm anxious of this nightmare. 

I am getting 12 RC Correct with all the keys.

What are the changes of circle and square question being C?   Raus, CL,  next ias, Ksg has given it C

Guys please tell me the answer of 2generation of family problem. Is it b or d

It's B bro.  I also marked D.  If two generation was not mentioned it could have been D.  It is B as the solution given by many seems to be correct.

What ever you are saying is third generation. So I assume the answer B given  by them is correct. ( I personally marked D and on the border line ).

In ksg vajiram and nextias it is d for 2 generation of family problems.

Yeah bro. I don't know how did they arrive at it. I also wish it should be D.

@BKB i also marked it d. Now many keys are saying b as correct


Hard fact. But B correct. I already counted it wrong

I think the question says there are  two generations in a family. Not two generations above the present generation.  So I think the solution of coaching institutes is correct.

The question I think is "it consists of two generations" and what you are assuming is it consists of "2nd generation". 

But I also wanted it to be D. Let's see what upsc thinks it is.

Some one tell me the answers of following 2 CSAT questions 

1. Circle and square intersection question intersection maximum and minimum points 

2. Relations questions ( R is S's wife )

Coaching institutes are equally divided on these questions 

For 1 ( KSG, CL, RAUS, NEXT Ias gave C, others gave B)

For 2. (Vajiram, NEXT ias and KSG has  given D, others gave B )

Some one who is pretty sure about them please clarify.

Does this mean the answer of Circle and square question will be C ?  Both the statement are correct.

In the csat RC it is clearly written- answer it based upon the given passage. "The passage of 10 lines given in the question paper".not from the whole articles that you find from the original sources.

Upsc answers in both GS and CSAT have always been based on source passages and verbatims. Always. No exception. As a matter of rule. Whether one likes it or not.


I think it's like this :

1. Criticial inference / message / summary of the passage can be arrived and the answers given are from the RC itself. 

2. Questions in which assumptions are asked might be taken up from the article 

If you see and try to get a pattern most of the coaching institutes have different keys with assumption questions and almost 12-13 answers are not debatable with 6 keys , they are clear and same. 

Coaching keys are most of the time wrong on assumption based RC, In such questions you can't look for RC and must look article. What's the point of asking for assumption if it's explicitly mentioned in RC itself . To substantiate further Check shankar's keys in 2018 and 19 . In 2018,nine of their RC's are wrong and 6 of them are assumption based ones only.

Anyone please tell this answer. 

Asking it for the only reason coaching institute keys made it equally doubtful as the RC's
