  • When you try your best but you don't succeed
    When you get what you want but not what you need
    When you feel so tired but you can't sleep
    Stuck in reverse
    When the tears come streaming down your face
    When you lose something you can't replace
    When you love someone but it goes to waste
    Could it be worse?
    Lights will guide you home
    And ignite your bones
    And I will try to fix you
    High up above or down below
    When you're too in love to let it go
    If you never try you'll never know
    Just what you're worth
    Lights will guide you home
    And ignite your bones
    And I will try to fix you
    Tears stream down your face
    When you lose something you cannot replace
    Tears stream down your face
    And I
    Tears stream down your face
    I promise you I will learn from all my mistakes
    Tears stream down your face
    And I
    Lights will guide you home
    And ignite your bones
    And I will try to fix you
  • 1st_attempt.. 100.67 (obc) i have started for mains... With ethics..socio & world hist along with test series , (sbjcts i didnt study previously.) Even if i dont clear, atleast nothing would go waste, utilizing time & keeping momentum up.
    You will be in surely(*if you are honest in giving you marks

  • Staying positive is the key here. I urge everyone to prepare for the mains regardless of their marks. It's the ultimate thing. One needs to nail mains to get into services. Prelims alone would not suffice.
    At the same time I would ask all the person below 110 to keep in mind that their mains birth is not yet confirmed. And odds are not in favour. This is to avoid the distressed feeling if one fails the prelims on the reult's day.
    I myself getting 112 from shankars key with couple of controvercial questions. And I know my situation is as vulnerable as a person scoring 100, because losing by 0.33 marks is as bad as losing by 12.33 marks.
    But trying my best to cover my optional.
    i remember u were getting 118 last time... :D if i m not wrong ur real score is around 110 in 2016 prelim...

  • Hi all...just wanted to express my feelings...
    This was my 5th attempt and again i am on borderline as usual , previous 4 times also cutoff missed by 4-7 marks..this is going to be my last attempt..yet i am preparing for 3 june 2018 with full zeal....the thing which i have concluded is that CSE is not the ultimate test of your mettle or your capability or proving your point ...most of us tend to think in such way...and also due to much of our parental grooming or upbringing that IAS is the ultimate thing...we know that IAS/IPS/IFS is the one of the most prestigious way of serving our country but i just want to say that those who are genuinely working hard and fail by some margin at any stage of the exam...all those people are equally capable of becoming IAS/IPS etc...because upto a certain threshold, hard work and intelligence is there...but after that threshold point...luck factor comes into working...i know i may be talking nonsense but just wanted to say...
    Exactly .This exam is like a safety valve.It creates and maintains the class difference.Its a hope for many that one day they will also be able to break out from their class & move to higher class.that hope is the reason people don't revolt and all the attempts are over society makes you feel as if you dont deserve to be in elite class because you were not capable of..

  • Invictus

    by William Ernest Henley

    Out of the night that covers me,
    Black as the Pit from pole to pole,
    I thank whatever gods may be
    For my unconquerable soul.

    In the fell clutch of circumstance
    I have not winced nor cried aloud.
    Under the bludgeonings of chance
    My head is bloody, but unbowed.

    Beyond this place of wrath and tears
    Looms but the Horror of the shade,
    And yet the menace of the years
    Finds, and shall find, me unafraid.

    It matters not how strait the gate,
    How charged with punishments the scroll,
    I am the master of my fate:
    I am the captain of my soul.

    P.S.: Invictus means "unconquerable" in Latin.
    Dr you married or single ?

    Single.
    I'm curious as to what prompted this question though. :)
    Raj ko raj rahne do....Will ans...not now...good luck...

    Happy studying ....
