Is it really knowledge that most people who keep writing mains after mains unsuccessfully lack? I don't believe that a fresher knows so much more than a veteran that the fresher gets an under 100 rank while the veteran can't get his name in the list. What are your views. On one hand you( veterans) are spending your time on content enrichment , reading research papers, books, magazines, on the other hand the other guy(fresher) is attending 2 coaching classes in a day and spending the rest on just revising that and writing answers, barely having any time left to go for content hunting and gaining the supposed deep knowledge, which most veteran seem to blame for their failure
Firstly, after a certain basic level of knowledge time management, presentation and interlinking matters the most. Content enrichment beyond a point is futile.
Secondly, many vetrans understand it after few attempts while some freshers understand it clearly in first attempt itself.
Third, is good guidance. People without support keep on learning with attempts while some freshers have good mentor support.
Fourth, not all aspirants at the same level. Some have good writing skill from school days. (50 percent problem solved). Many have not written any essay after 10th or 12th. They have never read a book after 12th. Relied on farra in college. They have hard time reading and understanding ethics and laxmikanth. They will read one para and sleep 1 hour.
So everyone has unique journey. One must not compare two aspirants. They are not on equal level while starting the journey.
comparison is not my intention. my only assertion is that maybe content and knowledge are not the bottlenecks, something else is. Clearing UPSC can not be the be all end all goal of anyone's life, Life is too big to be confined to such a limited end goal.@D503 comparision is the worst think one can do in life. Usse kuch haasil toh hota nai h, thodi bhot self esteem hai, uski bhi dhajjian ud jati hain. And thats not even the worst part. Worst part is that it breeds inactivity and excuse rendering (jaise UPSC ne apko sirf 1 attempt dia h).

yes this is certainly true that everyone starts from a different starting line. Some have never read any book in their life before starting preparation while others have been voracious readers from their school days. This must be the one factor then-Class privilege.Classroom classes ✅

because upsc cutoffs don't go that low, in 2020 few questions were elusive like batman. 2021 was bright and clear paper as broad daylight. so i am afraid about cutoff crossing 100 for obc if that happens it'll be real pain. may shree ram and bholenath save everyone and bring cutoff to below 90
Ni bro.. Itna ni jaega.. Max 95 tak ho skta hain for general. Easy clear ab lg rha hian.. Exam time me buri halat thi.. Csat ka bhi effect hga like last year
