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?

great yaar, i think coachings r not doing even half of what we r doing to get correct answers in RC...
Regarding Asset Allocation question, the most appropriate answer should be A.
It was taken from this article and focus is clearly on diversification to minimize risks

Bhai are u sure..as per your analysis all right except 2.... But I think I m on border due to coaching institutes variability
Yes ..aac to above mentioned article...rtp should include some state institutions and state role in regulationg priavte parties..
hey guys, someone plz clear my doubt regarding AI Q - Vision IAS key gives examples of "I am AI" and " Daddy's car" songs as examples of AI composed songs, but there's is a catch - Artists has to rearrange words/sentences of composed by AI, as they were not meaningful. So is 'meaningful stories and songs' option right?
here are the links for reference

@Tokyo Have tried it in past 2 years whenevr RC has no clear answers from coaching institutes
bhai u have this reverse searching in previous year RC question...has it worked with upsc thought process...
In "Right to privacy" passage, answer would be either A or D because 2nd statement is what whole passage is about.
Regarding 2 questions that Vision has answered differently- rukhmabai and desher katha, I was initially skeptical. But now I am convinced that they have got it right.
desher katha is a Bengali translation of ideas of moderates who critiqued british impact on indian economy. Deuskar was a marathi domiciled in bengal, who wanted to propagate Shivajis ideal of a united hindu rashtra. desh in his book refers to india as a nation. not bengal. This one is most likely correct.
rukhmabais case specifically revolved around 2 main points- her husband wanted to reinstate conjugal rights, while she wanted to dismiss the case as her consent was not sought as a child bride. right to education doesnt feature in the picture. it may be extrapolated as a larger debate but had no bearing in the case. This one can go either way depending on upsc.
feel free to share thoughts.
Just out of curiosity, i compared the
UPSC 2019 offical key for CSAT ONLY for PASSAGE question and the answers provided by EXAMRACE's passage answers.
So they got 10-11 passage question wrong
(With all due respect to Mam and her efforts)
So the Maximum variation is 35-36 MARKS, if one considers 2.5 + (-0.83) *11
Given the range, difficulty level of this year's passages i think CSAT BORDERLINE guys have some hope!!!
Padh lo Pantar log, iss saal nahi toh agle saal kaam aajayega. Cheers ;)
NISHKAM KARMA !!!
Yes, I have followed her Geography lessons but as far as CSAT concerned, I am heavily disappointed... Don't take clues from there..
About "Asset allocation" passage, the answer would be D. The passage is clearly telling that no matter wherever you invest money, it is always at risk, even idle money in banks can vanish due to bankruptcy, even homes can lose value. I am also getting that que wrong.
In "Right to privacy" passage, answer would be either A or D because 2nd statement is what whole passage is about.
bhai crux and assumption behind passage was, diversifying risk....read first few lines of para..u will get the message...also the passage from where it is lifted ..is calling for risk diversification....
in rtp....according to passage and from where (hindu article) the answer is A
