Things are quite uncertain, anything can happen to anyone. It makes sense to prepare for mains right now till the result comes. Isnt it?
I partied slept neflixed last week, time to get back to work.
All the best everyone
Kar raha hai prep abhi bhi? Thought you'll go to corporate ya go study abroad.
Ish vicious cycle mai aanae Kai baad koi nikal nahi pata. This is the beauty of this exam.
Okay . Hoping for the best. And Do you have any idea about female cut-off of 2022 ?
Commission ne abhi publish nhi kri h kya 2022 pre ki cut-off ?
Not yet.
Nothing to be surprised of tbh. UPSC me MTS and clerk se lekar officer level ke log kam krte hai. Obviously those people would have info regarding result details.
Not at all possible.
They can't disclose the marks of anyone.
Naukri chal jaygi
Some advice for those who've cleared Prelims. (also Avoid mechanical approach for mains & focus on analysis)
1. Essay Ethics & Optional are kingmakers. Paper 2 and Essay took away my ticket to Personality test in 2022.
In all these papers, I personally believe writing the same Questions as that of toppers & PYQs (as they're largely static) will give greater insights than the substandard evaluation by Test Series in the market.
2. Simulation is the key. You need to build the stamina for the Mains examination. It's BRUTAL. My friend Rank 1 simulated the exam thrice before the exam
3. DON'T LOSE YOURSELF
Those who are checking your copies are far less knowledgeable than you. Please keep your common sense alive. Keep all your focus on Addressing the demand of the Question in the best possible way.
For essay the focus should be on two things : Flow + Keeping close to demand of essay (I focussed too much on giving examples and content rather than the arguments). That's it. Baaki Innovate and be yourself
Again my friend Rank 1 told me that Essay & Ethics are test of personality. Make sure your ethical self is reflected.
Don't get homogenised by the evaluations of test series. Me and Ishita always ignored Forum's fetish with putting the sub heading in a box.
4. PRESENTATION is the Queen if Addressing demand is the King : By presentation, I would say Make sure your copy looks neat. That's it.
5. HEALTH : I fell sick before the Mains exam 2022 and lost precious 10-12 days.Make sure you remain fit and PLEASE DON'T EAT UNHYGIENIC FOOD at all.
6. Don't worry if you don't complete the paper in Test Series. As you'll make short notes and mug them up, You'll be able to complete the Final Mains on time. This doesn't mean you take paper completion lightly. Do make a strategy for yourself
7. Work like you have never done before. Don't let the prelims result get into your head. Pat yourself on the back and move with MASSIVE force towards mains.
P.S : I am not attempting this exam this year and I didn't clear the Mains last year primarily due to a 99 in Essay & 117 in Paper 2 of PSIR. Take anything coming from my mouth with a pinch of salt. Just sharing MY learnings
Edit : SHORT NOTES ke bina Mains exam nahi hoga at least mujhse. That is a A HUGE pillar to clear mains. Also focus MAJORLY on analysis but MUG UP ki power ko underestimate mat karna please. It will save you time and help you reproduce faster and better.
This is Platinum, 🙏

How to deal with mid-journey fatigue - physically, mentally, and socially?
The time when one feels like giving up, motivation fades away. Questions like do I really want to do it?
Seriously I am exhausted, it feels gloomy and dark
Bas do ur duty man.
Sabko lagta Aisa normal feeling hai yai.
Mann na kare fir vhi padho.
All the best.
