  • It was a wonderful aptitude test and much easier than cgl exam but losers ruined it.

    Idk who they are and what they are doing but an aspiring civil servant should have class 10 aptitude at least. Even bank clerk give 2 stages of aptitude exam. Paper 2 is farce today. Atleast 50% qualify lane ka kr do. Idk for what they have kept it. Better hai optional ka kr do like before. And what change doing 33.3 % has brought actually?
  • I once had a chat with a very senior IAS officer, and according to him, majority of his work was looking at statistics and finding out faults and making inferences.
    Based on this, he had to decide the future course of action.

    Now lets think, out of all the exams (Pre, Mains, interview and the subjects within them), which paper would have a direct correlation with the working of a bureaucrat, as described by this IAS officer?

    Engineers don't have a god-given right to CSAT. Many of us fail in it. We work hard to rectify the mistakes. Maybe this differentiates us from Non-engineers (am making a very big generalisation here though)

    Today prelims exam is a Monster, wherein whatever pedigree you have, doesn't matter. What matters is your luck within those 2 hours. A person who may have lower knowledge than me, may have a better luck at guessing answers in those 2 hours and succeed.

    Hence a big thanks to those protesters from Mukherjee Nagar, who led us to this mess.

    Well well well Dsp sir you don’t need any luck now, your brother is inspiration and lighthouse for many so you can still manage those 2 hours better than us.
  • Instead of making csat qualifying it could have been integrated with GS paper.
    Total 150 qyestions. 100+50( csat). Like rajasthan and bihar pcs.

    Bhavuk ho jata hun bhai prelims ko leke :smiley:
  • 25% qualifying hona chaiye 33 bohut zada hai
  • CSAT qualifying was the biggest tughlaq moment in the history of this exam.

    Ab bas prelims, mains aur interview qualifying karna baaki hai.

    Jo andolan karega usko seedha AIR 1 banaenge. No questions asked!!!!!!

    I have so much of anger within me regarding this issue, cant vent it out, its a helpless situation.
