@Jammu What about media.Google par search karo IAS aur news wale section main jao.Title of the news article:tum kahi ke collector ho kya aur ban gaye IAS,2 baar prelims bhi clear nahi aur fir safalta,rickshaywale ka beta bana IAS.Especially the case of a gareeb IAS who got IRS last year was used  by news to motivate the gareeb population to start preparing for UPSC.That gareeb IAS is a rajput of bihar who has acres of land.Some people do job only for the work.Ameer hi bante hai IAS.Even those non creamy layer certificate holders are very rich.The other thing is social capital of the caste.Check the CSE rank list.You will find that obc candidates are generally from yadav caste or southern states specially tamilanadu,maharashtra where OBCs are very dominant.

Pappu yadav is a politician in bihar with known assets of 125 crores.How many in India knows about this multimillionaire?The truth is that INDIA is the easiest place to be millionaire in dollars if you are from right caste.This person earned money through corruption and crime and now he wants an India of honest people.There are many pappu yadavs in India making pappu of india.Brajesh thakur bhi yaad hoga.That person has assets of 50 crore,multimillionaire.These people are multimillionaires only because they are from right caste.India has many many multimillionaires

Guys, I want to share my story of failures. I will keep it short. I started preparation in 2014 and gave first attempt in 2015. I have given six attempts, cleared prelims every time, but couldn't clear mains once. In between I prepared for other exams such as RBI, NABARD, RAS, etc. But failed in them as well.

Being 29-year-old unemployed guy dependent on parentโ€™s income, I always ask myself "what have I done to my life". I am being dejected, cursed and ridiculed by everyone in my family and friend circle. Only my parents have faith on me. But I have failed them as well.

I don't know whether you guys especially those with max attempts feel helplessness or not on yourself. Mujhe khud pe taras aata. I am exhausted by this exam. My shoulders feel heavy and weak. Every morning and night, I feel I cannot walk anymore. Sometimes, suicidal thoughts engulf me. I had even tried to commit suicide. But, the very thought of my parents stops me. I had understood that this exam is not only about knowledge, rather about your emotional intelligence as well. I genuinely feel, this is not an exam, rather a loop where majority of aspirants waste their productive year.

People say that you have prepared for upsc, you will excel in life even if you fail to clear. I rather doubt this same thought process. Nobody gives a damn, whether you prepared for UPSC or not. You are a failure, thatโ€™s it. You have to start the process for other exams from scratch. Even, if you go to private sector, they ask about age gap. You feel embarrassed when you report to your younger ones.

Some of you may not concede to above fact. But I know UPSC skills are relevant predominantly for coaching industry only.

I would sincerely urge the younger fellows that please donโ€™t waste your productive age by exhausting all attempts. Discard the urge that โ€œAbki baar to nikal jaayegaโ€. If you have sincerely worked hard and still unable to clear. Mend your ways my dear friend. Probably, luck doesnโ€™t favor you.

Currently, I am clueless and donโ€™t know how to proceed. The constant failures have shattered my self-esteem and confidence. Pata nahi ab life kaha le jaayegi. I am with flow nowโ€ฆโ€ฆโ€ฆโ€ฆโ€ฆโ€ฆโ€ฆโ€ฆโ€ฆโ€ฆ

what would be considered average score in gs2 this year

What do you think? I felt paper had a good mix of factual and analytical questions. Both these types had easy and tough questions. IMO 2019 GS-2 was tougher. This year average would be marginally higher. Btw what do you mean by average here? Not literally right? Because that prediction has little utility anyway.

Not many of us would have thought that the second wave would be so dreadful. I'm appalled by the stories of panic, grief and fear that have come across lately. It's literally a fight for survival these days. 

Days like these make you understand that family and friends are the most important facet of your existence. Something we often discount for while being engrossed in the preparation single-mindedly! 

A friend from my former workplace lost his dad to the raging 'devil' today. I had no words to either console him or ask him how was he doing. 

I am not sure whether it was the guilt of not being in touch with him or the mental state that has become more used to hearing such news that held me back from asking if he was okay. 

However, the guilt of misplaced priorities did forceme to frantically reach out to other friends whom I left behind while embarking on the CSE journey. All I wanted to know was whether they were doing well. 

If there's an opportunity that has opened up amidst this crisis, it is the option to reconnect with our loved ones and revisit our memories. It's important to let others know that there's one more person who cares about them. In the current climate of fear and uncertainty, I believe it would do both the parties a world of good! 

Stay Strong. Stay Together.

@AzadHindFauz i think you should talk to your friend. Recently two of my friends lost their one parent each. 
I was in the same boat, whether to talk or not, whether to sympathise with them or not. 
finally i did, & i know it wonโ€™t impact much but it will like letting know the person yes we  are with you. You can share your grief to us.
this time shall too pass.

what would be considered average score in gs2 this year

I believe it will be slightly lower than last year.Last years many questions were directly from books,there were many repeated questions like individual parliamentarian role.Even ICT question was direct.IR questions were pretty straightforward.Why poverty was asked directly.

This year paper was more analytical which required on spot thinking in many questions.Whenever paper is analytical cutoff falls(as in ethics 2017 or in gs 2 2015) and whenever paper is bookish cutoff rises(ethics 2019 or anthropology 2017).

To me it seems pretty obvious marks in gs 2 will definitely fall.

People r free to have different opinions(anyways who am I to be making predictions-a nail biting,crayon sniffing permanently anxious candidate who is still in shock on clearing mains of this and rbi)

@RYZEN Why not blame on your sky high aspirations and lust for a powerful job only, if I may say so? Two attempts are enough to prepare and if you can't then one should hunt for other job/career first and take a pause in attempts. This saves your career and later on you can re-appear after revisions. Anyway, you are  never late. Empires had been decimated in past and they had rose again. Don't feel embarassed by what you have done. It's not a crime. Don't think of suicide. You will punish your parents, people who had trusted you. Instead take some counseling. Start with something new even if it is a small job/ business/profession. Money is never an issue. You can get loan upto Rs 2 lakhs in Mudra without ITRs. Keep ego aside if you have in case. Build network, file itrs and construct profile and then go for management from a good college after 3 years. Work on skills of data analytics especially. Your journey may look stagnant, may start slow but after 10 years you will be at wonderful position. I can tell you because I had been in worse position than you and this approach only has helped me move forward and successfully.  Apologies if my words are harsh anywhere. I hope you have a great future.
