[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.

@gauravbrly409 I couln't finish the paper. Could have attempted 5-10 more. No time for 3rd round. Haven't even properly read 5-6 question yet, mostly agriculture ones. And out of haste, I did silly mistake in basic polity question. Lengthy, unpredictable, and unconventional question mix, this paper was tough in all aspects.

To those who are affected by the MPLADS questions,please file a representation...

Statement 1 is clearly wrong wherein it says " MPLADS "funds "MUST" be used for creation of durable assests

There are tons of cases where the funds have been used for other purposes....2.67 marks are game changing if Ur between 100-110

@azam_imame434 In this paper scoring above 110+ is very tough, it can be either tukka or very strong luck. Last year I scored 114, now this year I am in the zone of 92-100. Many first timer tend to be liberal while counting their core, and actual core are generally 10-15 mark lower than they claim.  I have done it in my first attempt. Even if I have had avoided 2 silly mistake which I did, I couldn't cross 105+, that' a drop of 7-10 marks . And veteran generally do not tend to inflate their score. Cut off won't go beyond 98. It can even fall to 90-92. 


This time it is my lowest score. Lastly it was 112, 107 , 112 .  I usually do not do tukka and only sound guessing. Usually have good accuracy and ... use to attempt lesser questions. This it seems .. it backfired. I  am cursing myself now that I could have bubbled 10 more atleast ... kam se kam kuch tukke mere bhi chal hi jaate sayad. 

See, you two people are scoring lesser than previous years, still if you are adamant for getting negative thoights, you will only remember those people who are scoring well and not the ones whonare scoring lower. Bhai tukka maarne waale 70s me bhi pahunche hai aur 110-20s me bhi 

Tukka se bahut fayda nahi hota hai bro. Tukka Marne walon ne investment in agriculture me bhi all mara hai, same with that conjugate vaccine question, biofuel. A few people can benefit from tukka but tukka cut off badha dega not possible

sir,

@Homo NeanderthalensisFrom my understanding, other documents can be used if Aadhar has not been assigned. Read last 4 lines of Section 7.


Yes, what you are saying is also true. It's just open to a lot of interpretations. Although I feel, what you are saying is what UPSC will go with. Because on the face of it, from the heading clause, it seems 'necessary' option is correct.

That is what I am thinking... but ..

when you call your  fellow frnds in ORN ... and listen .. Are yaha sabka .. 100 upar hai yaar. (Then mind says - saala ek hum hi bewkuf hai sayad duniya me ) 

I am not in ORN since last year. I shifted to mumbai. No idea .. what is the reality. Forum is only source of general info now.

@Satoshi_NakamotoUntil Aadhar has been assigned, other documents are allowed. This is what I understand from Section 7.

After thinking lot ... MPLAD me ... carried away wala statement chod ke .. all are correct. MPLAD primarily ..  Durable asset ke liye hai(though people do other things). But, Option me 1 hatane me .. 3 and 4 only bachta hai. 3 And 4 only to totally galat hai. If you look at options. 

1 is contingently correct. SC St and 10% wala sahi hai .. lapsable wala galat hai . So bacha kya options me . 1 3 4 .. I think. 

statement 1 is correct just because no other options to tick. .. and partially correct to hai 1 vaise bhi.

@jvr i know what you are saying. That just makes aadhar a primary document and not "mandatory" . If it would have been mandatory, other documents would not have sufficed. There is no forcing by government to them to enroll in aadhar for benefits . They can't deny benefits because they don't have aadhar. Here focus is on "mandatory"
