[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?

This is the official Thread for discussion of Prelims Postponement, Please do not create new threads for the same.

I think upsc will relent only after people start protests to include csat in the exam.

as strange as it might seem this could well be on minds of people in UPSC. That is they want to frustrate candidates so much that candidates start moving for demanding CSAT to be made evaluatory. All this anyway is the direct repercussion of CSAT being obstructed.

@Dead ManThen i think protest will happen saying Engineers are preferred. Already there is a notion that IITians are preferred more .

UPSC doesn't have much on its mind anyway. When they can't even give a thought on the methodology to select people for mains,which is out of pure randomness. It doesn't have anything else to do. Just a recruiting agency which has lost its sheen

@MedicoNot CAT but English professor. Either they are too vague or too narrow. Best would be to learn hindi and solve CSAT comprehension.

Has anyone by chance checked with Jatin’s key?

I did. How much are you getting? Though his key to a few questions seems wrong to me.

They should make one GS paper that includes includes maths, comprehension and reasoning as well. 150 questions in 2.5-3 hours. That's all.

@Medicodidn't do really. in last five minutes did 5 odd RCs starting from end. a coaching key would be more trustworthy than a 'cat expert'. all the best.

@Medico had 99.4x percentile in CAT Verbal, I usually leave RC and attempt quant. In the last 45 mins, I went through them and marked 75-80%. I found them confusing and some of them were quite vague. My strategy therefore always is to attempt Quant first
