  • So Mainsex opening at 700 today. I guess that the cutoff will go up owing to the more general nature of the papers.
  • till now did somebody post his/her answers online????
  • @bugsbunny

    You did not appear this year?
  • Bhai is baar almost saare optional ki lagi hai.....and Ethics paper was not that straightforward and easy.......but junta ki writing speed kaafi improve hui, people attended almost all questions irrespective of knowledge level..... so cut off may be 640+/-10!
  • cut off won't be more than 600

    I bid 580-590.
    Last year marking was scaled up, this year it will be repeat of 2013.
    Marks in 2014 were upscaled by a factor of 1.2 At the last minute. The cutoff was around 540,many insiders were also vouching for it.
  • cut off my prediction 585 to 610 genral considering paper and last time coz of reservations issues cut off went high

    In Patna center, I saw the whole demographics had changed. Most candidates were old timers who were earlier eliminated by the CSAT.. Many gave their last mains 2-3 years back and were employed in state PCS or secretariat. Hindi was the dominant medium.
    On the contrary, in the last 2 years, most were engineering graduates. I think other regional centers like Allahabad would also mirror this change..
    How was it in Delhi? Any one observed any change??
  • +1 .. Average age at the Mumbai centre has gone up significantly from the last year .. Many 5th attempters .. Met 2 guys on their 7th attempt

    Plus 75% had Marathi as language paper, last year it was much lesser .. Non-marathi guys working in Mumbai were very few, unlike the last year ..
