  • Failed twice in a row...30+... This time expected to clear with 100 marks. Now left with last attempt. After 5 year of service and 2 year of gap I find myself in a dilemma as what to do ....should I go for my last attempt or get back to job
    U r nearer to success. Bounce back with utmost energy. Give ur last attempt too....

  • Undoubtedly elimination of CSAT merit has been proved as vital for the entry & exit in prelims 2015 and it clear defines a new threshold to beat prelims. Many deserving candidates lost this year which seems unprecedented. Are you in congruence with my thoughts..??
  • @DUKHIYA ...chittu is baar hum bhi tumhare saath ho liye
  • dint qualify.. last attempt remaining.. basics not clear... excessive current affairs focus.. multiple newspapers earlier yet dint remember anything.. what to do so as not to fail in any stage or paper in the whole process next year.. too many materials.. all look great..
  • extra attempt dilwa do koi
    bhai dukhi insaan bhi tum hi the kya ??
  • extra attempt dilwa do koi
    Ek aur attempt dene ki himmat bachi hai aap mein ^:)^ waise pattern change ki waja se ek aur attempt to mil hi jaaega shayad ke nahi?

    bhai jab itni barbadi ho chuki hai to aur shai..chance le lete hain..potential realise karne ki kosis karte hain..

    main bhi wahi mana raha ki pattern chnage kare aur 1 attempt de de extra
  • Hi everyone,

    Saddens me to see so many hard working and well deserving candidates to be left out this year. This was my fourth attempt but first failure at Pre stage. Hurts a lot, but I am also relieved somewhere deep down. The exam had taken a toll on my health, mental and physical, and reduced my social life skills to negligible. I want to take a long break, for at least a month or two, and think on whether I really have the strength and will to go through all those books and material. I mean, how many times can you underline the same words, over and over again?

    But for all others, I offer my honest advise. Please join a part time job, maybe in an NGO or as a content writer to keep you engaged and provide some decent pocket money. Such jobs will also assist you in networking and keeping an open mind. As far as UPSC goes, I think Nishkaam Karma is the only way to go about. That way, we will never be stressed or make silly mistakes in exam again. It is not without a reason that the philosophy of Gita has withstood the test of time!
    tum to kafi intelligent ladki ho agli baar jaroor dena

    and @Reema2688 tum bhi sometimes shit happens


  • I was scoring 109.something.....general cat

    Why am out.....made no mistake in csat also.....and did not mark wrong circles n filled my roll no correctly.

    Plz help.....getting mad.

    same here ..getting 110 at least .failed..
    What is the reason....if cutoff is 104......why we are out......in my case this is the minimum score I calculated.
    I am also in similar boat....104 at least.....
  • @DUKHIYA abe tere attempt kahtam ho gaye kya ya majak kar raha hai , tu thode margin se reh gaya dil pe mat le RTI wagarah dal de ho sakta hai kuch ho jaye jahan reexam ho sakta wahan kuch genuine case ko mains ki enrty bi mil sakti dont loose hope
