Analysis of Prelims Paper 1 GS
1. Dominant Subjects:
The examination prominently featured over 40 questions from Economics, Environment, and Polity, while Science & Technology accounted for more than 10 questions. This aligns with the predicted trend of significant emphasis on these areas.
2. CSAT Difficulty:
The CSAT section was relatively easy compared to previous years, suggesting that the cutoff is likely to rise above 90.
3. Comparative Difficulty:
This year's paper was notably easier than last year's. Many questions were based on fundamental knowledge, and even those related to current affairs were not arbitrary. Key current events covered included:

- Speaker of the House

4. Importance of Basic Static Sources:
Fundamental static sources proved invaluable. Most current affairs-based questions could be addressed using PT 365-type current affairs magazines.

Analyzing PYQs can help answer approximately 10 additional questions. Relevant topics included:
- Congo Basin

- Parliament
- Vijayanagara
- Constituent Assembly
- UNESCO Heritage Sites

Questions on government schemes remained as unpredictable as ever.
10. Science & Technology:
