Focus is going to be the ultimate key. Avoid distractions, toxic vampires and thoughts of a ‘defeat’.

Process leads to the best outcome.

Mind will weave a lot of irrational stories - “UPSC will change the format with unsolvable questions”, “CSAT will indeed be CAT this time”, “I will freeze inside the examination hall” etc.

The only way to reign things under considerable control is to stick to basics, tame the beast by positive affirmation and surrounding yourself with encouraging coterie.

Cornwallis had nothing to do with Ryotwari.

Plus, adhoc exemptions were there hence statement was neither correct or incorrect.

Happy to see sherlocking working even in ambiguous situations where keys were digressing a lot. Further affirms, basic sources and common sense is the best way forward.

Another ambiguous specimen where Sherlocking came to rescue. Should further the trust in the IP. Keep sticking to basics and application and then let thy fate show you the way.

Keys have further affirmed the arbitrariness of the process. Stick to your Karma and let the fate decide the rest.

I really hope you’re seeing this post the exams because you should not be here ideally this hour.

Just want to quote Raman Mahadevan from ‘Kholo Kholo’, that encapsulate my wishes for you:

Tujh mein agar pyaas hai
Barish kaa ghar bhee paas hai
O roke tuje koyi kyon bhala
Sang sang tere akaash hai

Too dhoop hain jham se bikhar
Too hai nadi o bekabar
Baha chal kaheen ud chal kaheen
Dil khush jahaan teri to manzil hai vahiin


Go conquer what is rightfully yours.

Just stay grounded into present. No checking answers, no panicking or no complacency.

We will give due respect to the eliminator aka CSAT and then we’ll have loads of fun in the evening together.

I want to see people predicting a high cutoff for this on YT for next week and create useless keys. 😃

As usual, I see a lot of contentions where commission’s recommendation will reign supreme. Not straightforward at all. My 5-7min skim and my gut tells me cutoff should be in early 80s with UPSC key(v preliminary analysis, might update but my first analysis is seldom very off)!

All of you have a chance as long you applied heuristics liberally, leveraged basics and believed in yourself.

Keep at it Sherlockers!
