@WordleMaster 1-  UPSC CSE is not an aptitude test at any stage, except CSAT paper. 2- Mains is a knowledge test 3- You get marks ONLY if you write the substance expected by the question setter of UPSC 4- The substance solely depends on the source of question. It may be a particular text book or newspaper article or a research paper or question setters own fantasy. 5- It is not possible for any candidate to be aware of sources of questions 6- Coaching test series, instructions, study materials are of no use. 7- Those who get through the exam benefit from a host of chance factors. Those who don't, they blame their luck or lack of preparation.

99% candidates rant crap in essay paper and end up getting poor marks. If UPSC decides to give no marks for wrong interpretation, 90% candidates will get ZERO.

Bhai aaram se rest karo abhi rashte me bhi nhi khi durr durr tak 😂😂😂

Paper evaluation, moderation, tabulation etc over. Member shortage like previous two three years. So there will be a prolonged period of interview this year as well. BJP people don't find RSS cadres masquerading as scholars to appoint as members.

Most people, both candidates and coaching gurus, dont have good understanding of the issues and ideas covered by UPSC syllabus. They themselves are "random" in gathering facts and information mindlessly. How many people can clearly write the implications of literal interpretation of rules by bureaucrats without being aware of this conceptual matter before exam?? Still people will blabber something nonsense and expect UPSC to give them marks because they have worked HARD? Who the hell cares about your hardwork?? UPSC CSE main exam is an intellectually challenging exercise. Half backed knowledge, superficial understanding, cramming random information won't be of any help.

UPSC exam preparation has become such a cesspool that utterly mediocre people like Subhra Ranjan and charlatans like Vikash Dibyakirti - who can't clearly explain any concept- are "star teachers"!!!!
