Chairman- your interview is over.

Beware of frauds disguising themselves as student saviours and defrauding them of their time, money and mental peace. Make informed choice from multiple credible sources, especially new aspirants! Stay away from people who do not take criticism or ensure credibility for their actions. Ask for marksheets before enrolling in any course. Beware of harmful impacts of AI. Happy learning!

Some statistical modelling done by Krejcie & Morgan and other statisticians suggest that for a sample of around 3000 people, a sample size of around 20%, i.e. data of 600 people is needed for accurate analysis of patterns or behaviours. Hence anyone claiming to know the trend will need data for those many people, otherwise the pattern analysis would be wrong. This much data is not available even to the Chairperson/members or the JS/US, so anyone claiming such trends is just doing creative writing. The level of secrecy and encryption that UPSC is maintaining post some recent events makes it almost next to impossible to get any data leaked, otherwise it would be a blot on the institution. Even if done, it is futile. It is all about the relative performance that matters. Even in optionals, if you have done well, you will get good marks regardless of the subject. You just have to be in the top bracket of that optional.

Similar thing goes with interview. If your interview has gone well, regardless of the board you will get good marks. All boards reward marks in almost the full range(120-200) with the 150-160 bracket being the most crowded, so it is only your performance on that day that matters. So, there is no point getting into the futile discussion as to which board has awarded good marks or which board has not. Just have trust on the outcome. It will be good regardless of what happens in FR-CSM-2024. Just enjoy this time, and keep your calm.

No result today!

CSM-24 Final results likely to be out on Tuesday only.

Since the Personality Tests for CSE-2024 have ended, many of you who appeared for it may be facing anxiety or other pressures. To relieve that, we have formed a result discussion/bakar group where you can speak your heart out. It is strictly for those who have completed their interviews, no outsiders or fake IDs. Just message any one of the following IDs @psm0506 @Lankapati1729 @Pegasus_IND @PPY102

I understand the anxiety you guys must be facing in the anticipation of final results. I sadly don’t have any info/news to share on the same. However i feel next 36-40hrs are crucial. Hold in tight. Do not fall prey to fake news or fake pdf of the same. Trust yourself. You have given your best. Fate is coming.
Hope you see the light at the end of this tunnel!!
