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?

A wiser option would be to make it available throughout the day. Now that they have said that there would be no reshuffling, I see no point in keeping a one-hour window only. 

The SFG is designed in such a way that candidates can discipline their preparation so as to finish up the required portion of Pre in a time bound manner. Hence we have decided to make window open only for an hour. Further we plan to provide for Solution Sheet along with PDF paper and discussion video withing half an hour of end of exam so that you can finish up with today's paper revision as soon as you can. Hence we request you to please bear with us.

@Neyawn 

Sir, SFG-1 is over. It was a learning experience.

Kindly share a guidance writeup on the way forward for next 3.5months for SFG-1 people

1. How to move from hereon, what all to cover (especially in current affairs)?

2. How to schedule- what items to be done on priority now in feb/mar, what to be left/planned for later 2 months?

Kindly guide sir.

Waiting for your reply. Thanks a ton.

For question no 15 of test no 45.

 It's a previous year verbatim question and answer is c as per official upsc key whereas the key given by forumIas has D as answer.

Avanti and Gandhara are not associated with life of Buddha.

@Chanakya  Secular word in the constitution was already present in Article 25 from the starting. 42nd ammendment added secular word to the preamble.

Question says "Constitution" and not Preamble.
