I wanted to ask those who have cleared this prelims. I can clearly see that attempting on the higher side has worked for many. Do you agree that our attempts should be on higher side given the increased subjectivity in the questions ? Has someone with conservative attempt (Less than 80) cleared here ?
Kindly share your experience if possible
I've always attempted 80 or fewer questions.
2018 - 80
2019 - 81
2020 - 75
2021 - 76
2022 - 78
2023 - 76
Cleared cutoff everytime but 2018.
I'd suggest one shouldn't decide the no. of attempts beforehand. Rather, they should decide it after seeing the paper. Do the first round and see how many questions they can attempt with reasonable accuracy (80%+).
If you've done 35 or more, you CAN clear with ~80 attempt. If you've attempted 30 or less, you HAVE TO attempt more questions.

Mains people
Passed out 2 yrs ago
Still haven't collected original degree from clg
Is it must for DAF?
I understand people in last year or those who don't have it yet can use provisional
but since I passed out 2 yrs ago...... Will I need it or can do without it?
You can use your provisional degree in DAF. Not a problem.

Thanks man for your insights. I am particularly cheering for you this year from the peripheries. Won't jinx by speaking too much :P. All the best :)
@GaryVee You have more than one well wishers here. If you are in Delhi or NCR, do drop by sometime.
Has to do with some good luck!
Ah, unfortunately not :(
I'm a 1000 kms away!
Hopefully, post-Mains. 🤞🫣
