CSE Mains 2021 Experience explained by

Rahul Chavan, IPS'20

UPSC CSE'19 AIR 109.

General studies paper 4

How I attempted : - started with case studies .. alloted 15 minutes for each case study i.e .total 90 minutes..but It took 10 extra minutes and led to little bit mis management of time allotted for section A...And then attempted Section A ..

Analysis- Section B

Case studies were relatively easy but there were around 4 sub- questions on almost every case study , so Qs became lengthy and ultimately time consuming..Key to solving such lengthy Qs is a good speed and more answer writing practice..(One must avoid habit of writing stakeholders , facts of case , subject matter, values involved etc in lengthy questions. Even if , it gives a good impression, one can't afford to miss other questions for it .)

Section A :- On the expected lines ..most of the questions as per syllabus ..( Q3- a,b,c ...Quote based questions may be difficult but one needs good answer writing practice to attempt such questions)

How to prepare - Lexicon or Lukeman IAS notes will be enough..for case studies..answer writing practice will work ..( mention ethical theories, philosophers , reformers and some quotes while writing answers).

I have still not come across somebody with a score more than this and hence a comfortable claim can be made that this is one of the highest score this year. In this blog, I would mention what helped me achieve this score. I DID NOT refer to any other source than Shubhra Ma'am's notes. There are two reasons to it. Firstly, since I had reached the interview stage in all my three attempts, I never had the luxury of time to refer to any book. Secondly, I believe Ma'am's notes are more than enough to form the core aspect of the subject's preparation. I did value addition from multiple sources so as to get an edge in my answers: I referred to copies of toppers of the respective tests that I attempted during my mains ...
