Civil Service mains 2018

Lost opportunity,

Essay: was ok but left some key points

Paper 1: bad time management,didn't answer well the most scoring questions, society

Paper 2: Forgot constitutional provisions

Paper 3: Science and tech Achilles heals

Paper4: 1 question almost blank

Chemistry paper 1 : ruined. Attempted less. Extremely bad time management

Chemistry paper2: Ok but left 1 or 2 juicy questions

Verdict: Can't say mch abt interview call, much better performance then last year
