To appear or not to appear

Is it advisable for a last attempt veteran to appear for prelims if not particularly prepared for the Mains?

Age-wise I have one more year.

Selected in state service for a block level job. Next to zero possibility that department will allow a leave of 4 months between prelims and mains in 2020.

*Crash course/Test series etc etc...can they make it happen? Or will it just be a leap of faith?*

  • If u have decent confidence regarding mains/if in ur earlier mains answer writing wasn't ur weak area.. I think u can give this attempt.
  • Strict no......use Ur last year......study mains for 9 months... N go far 4 months for pre in 2020..... without mains preparation there is no use of qualifying pre

  • Don't
  • My concern is that once I join the service, I won't get the time. This year at least I have 100 days between prelims and mains
