Official: SFG / RLG All Tests Discussions in one place

Hello All,

The Group usage here is a little cumbersome, so I am creating this thread to make sure that all questions with doubts stay in one place. Can someone push all the doubts and queries here? I will make this an announcement?

@mickeyviru Rank is available at the link from where you took the test. I guess they are not publishing it like a list as earlier. You can see it from where you must have accessed the test.


I saw that but the earlier version was better for comparison and performance improvement.

If that is the case I request@forumiasacademy to publish the rank list like it was done earlier

Few bloopers in today's discussion. See these corrections and point out if I'm wrong.

04:28-"Yellow and red light will scatter more and the sun will appear reddish".Wrong. During sunrise and sunset, it is the shorter wavelength that is scattered away as solar radiation being oblique traverses greater distance and what reaches us are the longer wavelength i.e Yellow, Orange, and Red.

10:03-"Without an ITCZ, strong wind shear will not be possible".Gives a sense that wind shear is necessary for cyclone formation which is clearly wrong.

23:10-"Nigeria is in Northern Africa".Wrong. Nigeria is in Western Africa.The same mistake was in the test 21 discussion video too!

Question No 13 asked for Not Correct and both the statements are not correct. They are interchanged. So C is correct answer as given in explanation also.

I don't think UPSC will accept this logic. Hypersonic and Supersonic have clear distinct definitions.

No doubt Nigeria is in the west, but if you divide Africa into 2 rough halves, it is in the northern part. Maybe by that, he meant that Nigeria is north of the Equator.

Q 42. Pliz have a look.... I find Duars formation is common in foothills of both sikkim,darjeeling himalayas and of arunachal himalayas..... Correct me if m wrong... How preference is given to sikkim darjeeling himalayas?

The NCERT mentions about arunachal himalayas due to roughed topography the inter-valley transportation linkages are notional so, most interactions are through duar region along arunachal assam border. Pg no 14

Q. 32 kali river 

 I m not contradicting it as such but still try to avoid these.... 

NCERT specifically mentions kali river as a tributary of ghaghara which is a east flowing river Pg no. 12 (even in news recently)

whereas the west-flowing  river in karnataka has been mentioned in NCERT as kalinadi Pg no. 28 (better to frame it as which of these rivers are west flowing peninsular rivers)
