[Results] Prelims 2020 Over - Gearing for 2021

Because of the corona virus issue? If it does not happen then worst affected will be people whose interview is stuck, around 600-700 such people I think are yet to appear for their interview.


@neyawn sir and others, what is your take?

@Equalizer  exam time is limited. The word comfort in your comment has significant significance.

Pretty sure there will be a considerable fall in cutoff. Paper was fuckall. Quite possibly, there will be more errors in coaching keys this year. Margins are really small. If you think you might get 90+, prepare for mains. 3 weeks lesser this time. 

How was your second paper

Polity- easy 

Economy- bearable

Modern History- okay

Ancient Medieval- some doable. Otherwise better to leave

Environment- Bad

S&T/agriculture- Tough. Why so much Bio?

To target engineers I guess

Boss, I am a doctor. Recent MBBS passout, I feel equally targeted. This was not Biology. This was random biotech random in all caps. Not Biology for sure. I have not seen such biology in my 9 years of studying medicine and biology.

These coaching wala has become net liability on upsc aspirants. Who else agree. There end number of tests and claim of so many questions directly from their booklet and test series has not gone down well on upsc.

One additional factor this year- pandemic and lockdown has taken a huge toll on UPSC. May be experts not available to set standard questions. Questions this year was not upto UPSC standard.
