    dear anthro takes time.. if u see the list most people are 3rd or 4th attempt people.. lack of good material is one of the biggest reason for this.. anthro is not that short and easy as it is projected.. it was easy to handle before 2010 as u could skip 50% syllabus then.. now with social and theories part entering into the scene and paper 2 going crazy, it has become a good enough optional.. welcome to anthro..
  • My 2014 Attempt 89+100 = 189
    My 2015 Attempt 102 + 94 = 196

    I am yet to solve the puzzle of anthropology. But this year I am going to read more books than notes.

    It's not easy to score good marks in anthro. Although the subject is easy to understand.

    @bulla every subject is easy till u read superficial notes.. anthro is highly conceptual subject.. superficial treatment will not do.. now you are no right track.. i think reading books gives marks rather than poor coaching notes.. coaching notes can not develop sense of subject..

    best way is u post some of ur answer of this year's paper and we can work to find where is the mistake..
  • @hemu : Ok. I will start sharing my answers in a week. How much did you get in anthropology?
  • i din't qualified pre this year..
  • @bulla what was your attempt in both the papers?
    What were we supposed to write in short note for HORTICULTURE and ISLAM AND MATRILINY
  • I got 102 & 101 this time which add up to 20 marks less than that of last year. Looking at the scores of you guys 250 this time would be considered excellent score. And i think as anthropology candidates swelling reading from books will distinguish us from rest.
    @Terminator @FordCoppola no word from you guys.........
  • Somebody was telling sosin mam's notes available in rajinder nagar. I asked a few shops and could not find. If any body knows where ican find that in delhi
