  • @Pooja : where to post it? and word limit? and how we would know ,and what we will able to do , if anyone will just copy paste from the google ?
  • @devendra_singh

    Word limit will be as per UPSC standards i.e. 2500 words in 3 hrs.

    where to write ?
    Here only.

    or u may practice at home on un-ruled pages.
  • @dp81 : चलो बढ़िया है ,
  • @dp81 @pooja we need to post it here itself, because the whole point of this is getting feedback from peers. But it will be really difficult to type these many words and we can't post pics of 10+ pages on which we write essay. Very few will review other's essay this essay.

    Why don't we for a start just post outline of essay and we can tell if someone is lacking in some points?
  • Yeah, outline would be good.. some sort of skeletal structure, be it written here or uploaded doesnt matter.
  • @matthardy that's what I wanted to say. I will begin with above topic's essay outline soon.

    Do you think , just outlining here the crucial points of essay would suffice our purpose?
  • lets not start with direct 2500 words ... i would recommed all to first frame the structure and than start with short essay of only 200 words (2 pages) (half an hour daily) ... after 10 days we would extend the time limit ..
  • All are requested not to copy paste from google ... first practice on sheet of paper than photo copy of those final essay should be uploaded ...

    but @Pooja : Is it possible to type 200 or more words here in this forum ? If i talk about myself, then i dont have any cell phone having camera , neither i have any digicam for uploading what ever i will be writing on unruled pages
    Secondly , should we not choose the topics which are not at all straight forward? which has become the trend of upsc, unlike the topic mentioned above.
