UPSC Prelims verus Sherlocking

I have often been asked what is 'Sherlocking' and if it was applicable in UPSC Prelims 2023 and how relevant will it be moving forward.

This short video not only covers the basics of 'Sherlocking' but I demonstrate its basics by solving some questions from UPSC Prelims 2023.

Know that while this exam comes with no guarantee, I truly believe that following the right process can give you as good a chance as there can be.

Have a good Sunday!

Parshuram’s Curse to Karna should be a lesson in avoiding IP Infringement:

It has come to our notice that some subversive elements are:

-Pestering enrolled Sherlockers to ‘share’ the course!

Since we have a sincere honest community our students don't violate my hardwork. So then the fringe elements,

-Goto other groups finding like minded fringe elements to share the course with.

Know that our students always apprise us of such elements and we have fo unfortunately ban such elements as well as decline their enrollments.

As I've discussed before, I didn’t get this IP in विरासत। I had to create this from ground up and refine it for it to be efficient while giving precious 6+yrs of my 20s!

If you violate it, you’re playing a lose lose for all:

-You devoid me of my due from my hardwork and let down my trust.

-Anyway the IP won’t help you courtesy Parshuram’s Curse to Karna.

If you don’t think IP is worth enrolling in, don’t and just self study or go for “free mentorships” which are plenty on YT!

If you do think my IP can help you, then be true to your side of the social contract!

I’m sure you’ll understand the dynamics of the situation and be reasonable to me and to your future!

I'm sure you won't let me down.

Community Day and A Message to the Aspirants:

As insidergiri peaks this week, speculation is rife that Final Results for UPSC 2023 might be out anytime now.

Having been here in the past, I can suggest certain conventions to be followed which will enrich our entire community even more.

This is a delicate time for students who are waiting for the results. At the same time, it’s a time of curiosity too for the rest.

We’ve to ensure that our curiosities do not come in the way of a fellow member’s mental peace.

I would request everyone to be kind to community members and refrain from asking for results. If you want to check someone’s results, go discreetly and do a Ctrl+F on the Holy PDF.

But kindly don’t act like the metaphorical toxic “दूर के फुफेरे मौसा, the great know it all, a person of no subtlety”!

Every year results come, people are selected, people miss marginally, but it’s your Karma that sticks, it’s your kindness that is remembered!


Also, let’s come together to alleviate our anxieties on @Life_neil at around 10AM and listen to infinite community radio where your recommendations are encouraged.

Wishes!

"Chalo Dilli" या नहीं : UPSC Aspirants Dilemma

This exam is brutally uncertain. Nobody can deny it. But there is still an optimised way to give yourself the best shot in this exam.

What we suggested right after Prelims has turned out to be true, cutoff has plummeted to an all time low into mid 70s.

Anybody claiming that the exam was a हल्वा, is either a fool or trying to make a fool out of others.

The low cutoff is exclusively down to commission’s disregard for meritocracy by making vague, ambiguos and irrelevant questions. But we can’t do anything about that.

While making the Pre 23 Analysis, I firsthand found 10-15 brutally ambiguous questions.

What we can do now is stick to the best process. Basic Sources, Revision and PYQ Analysis, with or without me.

Don’t fall in the trap of unnecessary mocks, guaranteed guidance or clickbaits on YT.

Guard your biggest resources with your life, Time and Attention, and give yourself the best shot!
