Cut-off for upsc prelims 2012

edited May 2012 in Miscellaneous
will the cut off be more than 200 or less than 200 this time? given that csat was cruelly difficult and time taking. i was caught up in english portion and attempted many without discretion. don't think will make it :-(

i think cut off will be 180. what do u guys think??

  • GS was as expected, tough, but cast although lengthy did not seem tough to me..Lets wait for the answers to come

    dont think the cut off would be higher than last year.

    cut off could be higher upto 220. people have attempted high no of questions in csat. in gs also no one knows which guess work might work..lets see..

    As per answer key I have an expectation around 145-150. Do you see any chance.. considering the tough level of exam and also 1000+ vacancies this time.

    Pls respond.

    @Go_tam how much are u gettin? u know what 220 is an absurd score. it hs never gone so high. cut off will not go above 180 for GEN category

    my apologies. that was my first end estimate, since some people i met in the bus said paper was easy..i am yet to chk my score.but spoke to some seniors, and they said cut-ff will be 180-190 for GEN..sorry again for such sensationalism.

    I Felt that Paper - I was not that tough, if you could do some basic elimination and guesswork, and had studied the basics.
    But Papre - II was tricky and took up most of my time.

    Attempted 77 in Paper - I and 69 in Paper - II. But unfortunately, I had attempted many indiscriminately, and after negative marks, my score might come around 200.

    last year cut-off was 194. this time it will go a bit lower. both papers were tough..but again there will be lot of people who will have scored very high and lot of people with very low score.

    for some people the score might be as high as 250+ and for some around 120-130...agar 195(worst case scenario) - 200 (average case scenario) hai to prepare for mains...nahi ton haridwar-amarnath ghum car aayo air phir se mains ki taiyari karo..

    Will there be no individual cut-off for each of the papers?
