tukka making should not constitute a major part ofyour attemppt else it can backfire like Sh!t ... i been a victim

koi kuch bhi bole leaving aside those who have 95%+ accuracy and clear with less than 65 attempt,the rest of us are dependent on luck in one way or another.On a good day one might be comfortably clearing by a 30 marks margin and failing by 1-2 mks on another.Even those few with 95% accuracy might hurt if they attempt very less or make even a few silly mistakes on account of a difficult Paper.Bottomline is it all depends on the 2 hr russian roulette that gs csp is,people having studied fr years and cleared mains etc havent cleared pre whereas a few non serious banking/ssc aspirants made it with 110+ last year.So decide everything on that first sunday of aug and best we can do is self confidence and belief.People starting pre study today might make it whereas those who have done everything 5 times already won't.So be smart,attempt in an optimal range and just hope that its your day and believe in yourself.

Tukka is art or not i don't know but i have felt..
"when you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.”

though it is a quote by Coelho...its true to the core.

Believe me it happens.
ust listen to your Subconscious once.By,7th you would have done your part.On the D-Day its your mind and Destiny.

It is good @Yo_Yo_Choti_Singh , that you opened this thread after the papers have been set for the year.
UPSC reads these threads and won't hesitate in tweaking the questions to circumvent these giveaways next year.

P.S.: For those who think that is not possible, they know what ForumIAS is and they asked Neyawn about it in his interview too. AS ma'am once also asked someone what the Forum public thought of her, if I remember correctly..

bhai fir to is bar Vision CA and Nitin Singhania se kuch nahi ayega

In the context of modem scientific research, consider the following statements about ‘lceCube’, a particle detector located at South Pole, which was recently in the news :
1. It is the world’s largest neutrino detector, encompassing a cubic kilometre of ice.
2. It is a powerful telescope to search for dark matter.
3. It is buried deep in the ice.
(a) 1 only
(b) 2 and 3 only
(c) 1 and 3 only
(d) 1, 2 and 3

Statement 1: As maximbady said, a statement with full of info is mostly true. "largest" "neutrino detector" "cubic kilometre" "ice". 4 pieces of information
Statement 2: "Telescope" and "Dark matter" are specific words, they have to be true.
Statement 3: Buried deep in ice. This one is tough, You really cant guess if its inside or outside. But the options made it easy.. Since there is no 1 and 2 option.. it also has to be true

I hadn't heard about IceCube at all until then. But in this question, I knew neutrino detectors are placed underground to prevent interference and all that.
So I took S1 and 3 as correct.
For S2, I thought "How can a telescope be placed underground?", without paying much attention to the dark matter.
As a result, I marked option C and it turned out to be incorrect.

Moral: You won't be sure whether you are using the correct line of reasoning in the exam hall or not. So educated tukkas are advisable only when you have sufficient leeway -- like you've attempted ~60-65 questions with sufficient accuracy. Blind tukkabaazi is a strict no-no.

I would like to humbly point out a thing if you dont mind
"How can a telescope be placed underground?" is something which we are reasoning through our knowledge base, This sort of reasoning works only when we are 100% sure of the fact. In this case, we are not sure about it.

Therefore it would have been more beneficial if you had thought from the point of view of the guy who framed the question.
Why is the word "telescope" present here? Just think why did he use something specific like a telescope to make a wrong statement?
imagine the number of sources he has to go through just to make sure "Telescopes cant be used to detect neutrinos" ... Its highly improbable that people are ready to take up so much work just to confuse students, unless they are coaching centres

ps, this is just logical reasoning when u have some idea(About the telescope). And yes i too agree that blind tukkebaazi is harmful.

Main bhi ek point rakhun

Exam dene ke bad right question ki reasoning kitni bhi divyang ho sahi lagti hai or galat hone ke bad kitni bhi sahi ho divyang he lagegi, 'arey yar eise sochna chahiye tha, s*** "

theek hai bhai, tum bina comment pade comment kar rahe ho toh main kuch nhi keh sakta

Sir_Potassium_Pandey

Growing up is the name of learning how to tell lies in a sophisticated manner..or to say in sophisticated language.."putting yourself across in way that everybody likes you". In social interactions form is always more important than content..to listen patiently and speak lies artistically is the best way to run social life smoothly i.e. understand everything but say only that thing which makes you people's favorite or at least don't make people indifferent or hostile for you.

Most surprising part is everybody goes to any extent to assert without any proof that how truthful he/she is ..or what fondness for truth he/she has. In economical terminology there is huge demand for truth but very less supply because traders of truth have done vulgar hoarding

Yeah! people like truth but only when it serves their interest..i rarely encounter a human being hard-wired in a way to like the truth even if it is hurting his/her interest.

It is good @Yo_Yo_Choti_Singh , that you opened this thread after the papers have been set for the year.
UPSC reads these threads and won't hesitate in tweaking the questions to circumvent these giveaways next year.

P.S.: For those who think that is not possible, they know what ForumIAS is and they asked Neyawn about it in his interview too. AS ma'am once also asked someone what the Forum public thought of her, if I remember correctly..

bhai fir to is bar Vision CA and Nitin Singhania se kuch nahi ayega

krur singh, comprehension practice kar lena ek bar :P .. he is talking about next year not this year ...:D...

bhai isiliye maine "next year" wala part highlight nahi kiya tha....

waise accha yaad dilaya ....last year se abhi tak apti ek baar bhi dekha....ab se roz 3-4 question karunga...

Na na..
Krur is correct.
Since last prelims, everyone has been telling that Vision is sufficent-2.
So UPSC may choose to deliberately select topics not covered in Vision..

Though I feel that for prelims, the "dynamic" portion has now become static; everyone covers it from the same 2-3 sources.
The basic subjects are becoming more dynamic. UPSC is already venturing into hitherto uncharted territory in history; maybe this time it will do so in polity or geo.
It is scary..

yeh sub kaisi ashubh baatein kar rhe ho

Krur bhai sorry, main comprehension practice kar ke jaunga :P

baat to sach me ashubh hi hai main sirf vision CA hi kar raha hu.....and agar usme se nahi aya to....

I feel tukka making is more productive for senior players...who know something about most of the questions....it could be fatal for freshers.And in 2011-13 papers,these tricks works quite well...even if you don't know anything you can make some question right through common sense.But now upsc is making question paper more factual 2015 CSE and 2016 capf.where the scope of tukka is very limited.

Sir_Potassium_Pandey

@Sir_Potassium_Pandey , shall we call them Truthitutes?

Certainly yes! if they have been successful truthitouts in the non-commodity market
