[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.
What usually happens when a question or option gets wrongly translated in the Hindi version of the paper. The Gandhi Irwin question has got many Hindi students worrying
Civil Disobedience is notAsahayog Andolan.
So what is likely to happen? Grace Marks, Cancellation of Question, Ya fir Jo chal rha hai chalne do?
This is a massive blunder. Ideally, the commission should award grace marks.
A representation should be made immediately by those who are affected.
Do you believe.. I marked - Constitutional govt as option b. Location of laddhakh wala wrong ... even I have full map in my mind ek ek finger psangpo ki dimaag me chapi hai.So my score is 89.33 from vision taking the preamble and financial debt question wrong. I had told myself if it I dont clear its okay, I did everythng I could and maybe this is not for me. Life has greener pastures elsewhereBut yesterday i discovered I had solved one question right, and in hurry (coz it was an easy question) marked wrong option. Means I solved 1,2 are right, and 3 is wrong, but maked 123 in answer. Blunder. 2.66 gone.Now the guilt is sinking in. Maybe without marking mistake I would see hope right now. Not even considering those questions that I thought I could maha tukka-guess their as answer and mark but ended up not attempting due to the huge risk. Unlike my mock performances, I become risk averse during exam. Always. Since 2017.This was my 4th prelims. Every exam before I panicked n couldnt solve easy questions in exam. And this time I didnt panic, yet made similar mistakes. Was having meltdowns every day since last 1 month, would either shout at somone, or cry. Staying at home, unemployed-unmarried-total failure is not easy. I had good job, was one of thes best in my office, smart intelligent,had an mba call, left it all for this exam.This year I was at home(before was in Delhi since my colg-job everythng was in delhi before, had been staying there since so long). Could often hear parents telling neighbours "iska work from home hai, thats y at home", or telling other family members on fone how I sit in home all day, old and fat and unemployed. Its hard for parents to see their children like this, they have expectations.I broke down everyday when I heard this, cried for sm time, n started studying again. I did everything I could. But its not enough. This is not for me. So it ends for me now.Havent filled up CAT.will fill up whatever forms come out now.have to painfully do mba n listen to parents saying how i kicked mba before. Already heard relatives se how i kicked a good job before. Anyways. Itna minutely khud ko dissect kr lia h is exam se, totally unnecessary. Exam do. Hona h hojaega. Nahi hona ho, nahi hoga. Itna dimag nahi khrb krna h apna.Ps. Can somone plz tell me how to delete account here? I just cant seem to find the delete option..
GreenNinja,@jordan_belfortCoaching centres and Mock test series condition us to think in a certain way, which causes us to make silly mistakes and Blunders in Prelims.That is why Read standard textbooks, with NCERT's as base. They will orient aspirants to think/understand the topics in a certain way, which UPSC wants to evaluate through exams.
I would like to share what I understand from the term basic structure. Every written constitution has a basic structure comprising of certain features. The SC gave the DOCTRINE of basic structure and did not define the basic structure. It simply said that the constitution can be amended in such a way so that its basic structure is not altered.
In my opinion, the question was trying to ask what is the basic structure of the written constitution of India rather than who defines or decides it.
Anyways, final answer will be decided by UPSC. Just sharing my understanding of basic structure. Please see the text from NCERT too.

This year .. they will bring new product in market .

true, ncerts are simple and direct unlike coaching compilations. And sometimes too much interpretation lead us to wrong answers, upsc just wants simple interpretation. I did a few questions wrong this time just by overthinking and interpreting it too far.

gauravbrly409,So , What is your take on it. Mine was - Statement is right. True.I would like to share what I understand from the term basic structure.

SC recognized the BS. BS pahle se tha bhai. SC never used word "defined". In most of judgement i have read with my little brain, I have always heard the word recognized or identified .. but not defined per se.So , What is your take on it. Mine was - Statement is right.

Pacman1,
i have very bleak chances to clear pre
after attempting this pre,i am planning to leave this preparation(nahi ho payega humse) and get back to IT jobs
aur ek man yeh bhi keh raha hai ki ab upsc ke sath sath dedicated baki PSC and non-banking exams ki bhi tayari karu(banks exam ki maths reasoning mere upar se jaati hai )
in upsc i can develop my logical guesses,is exam me bhi i applied some logical guesses and derived the ans,but andh tukka marke ans laanayeh completely us din aapki kisma kaisi hai uspe depend karta hai
seniors plz suggest how to prepare others psc exam and others exam dedicatedly with uspc,jisne qualaified kia ho plz reply....bpsc december me hai
@Sherkhan1428 @Patootie @SergioRamos
Really can't comment much about that bhai. I hate State pcs exams, simply because they have questions like,
" Gandhi ji ke chashme ka number kya hai "
A ) 1.00022 B) 1.00023 C) 1.00024 D) Nahi kar paaogey rehney do
UPSC still gives you the scope for reasoning. State PCS have minimal scope for that and hence i dont get the philosophy behind those exams.
MY suggestion: Your mind right now is bruised and you are hurt a little. Allow it to recover. Let nature take over and allow yourself to heal. If you still have chances to qualify, so be it. Cling on to it and prepare for the next 40 odd days. It will still be a win win at the end of 40 days , even if you don't qualify because you will have momentum and you can carry it into 2021.
Do not take such life altering decisions at this time because you will most likely choose an option which isn't the answer. Make what you will of that advice. But i hope you end up taking an informed decision. Cheer up and bounce back 1000 times harder. My prayers for your well being.
thanku so much bhai,will think on this....all the very best for your mains prepration
