Roll No.190192’s result is withheld, as per CAT direction.
~3000 candidates selected for the interviews. (3003, if I counted the lines and columns correctly.)
@Those who couldn’t make it
My heartfelt sympathies, but this is not “THE END” of life. Atleast now you’re not in limbo about the Mains-result…Now you can proceed with the next-plan you’ve for life and competitive exams. So make a resolute promise and devote your 2014 completely to achieve it. You’ve come this far- there is definitely to a decent career and life for you, Bas Ek baar man banaa lo—yaa toh mein iss paar, yaa uss paar ho jaaungaaa and let 2014 be that year. My prayers and best wishes have always been and shall always be –with every serious player.
@Those who cleared the mains-2013
Congratulations. Interviews likely to start from 7th April 2014 @UPSC headquarter in Delhi. You’ll get a call letter soon. UPSC will also update the timetable on its website.
In the meantime, start a Ph.D on your DAF form inside-out. Be it location based questions, or graduation based, or current or theory. Even wasting one minute is a sin.
Marksheets
UPSC will upload mark sheets of all candidates within 15 days after the declaration of final result i.e. after interview. The marksheets will stay there for 60 days. (and if last year’s system continues – then even candidates who failed in prelims, will be shown their prelim-scores and cut-offs.)
Call letters
- candidates who do not receive communication regarding their Personality Test, should immediately – contact the office of the Commission through letter or on Phone Nos. 011-23385271, 011-23381125, 011-23098543 or Fax No. 011-23387310, 011-23384472.
- No request for change in the date and time of the Personality Test intimated to the candidates will be entertained.

I am going to appear in 2014 prelims but still confused with the optional history, public ad, political science
Political Science, As it covers much GS Syllabus too.
But even public ad and history have coverage even in GS!
i like history but it is very vast
i am thinking of public ad coz it may be useful further
political science fascinates me though haven’t read a single paragraph from it…same goes for public ad
seniors of the respective fields please provide your valuable experiences with the subject!
any comment on psychology ?
friends ,who are selected in mains please guide me about the study of mains
Rumours doing the rounds!
2000 candidates failed in Compulsory English paper.
1000 failed in Indian languages paper.
Cut-off below 600!
Nobody has got more than 70 in GS paper IV.
I hope these are all mere rumours!
And no rumour mongering please!
who is telling
“please”
this rumour might be out of frustration of not being selected
does it matter? 70 number max ho ya 7 number..work towards your goal…
Has anybody cleared Mains with Mathematics as an optional
Yes….
Could not clear mains with Geography… geo-p1 was very tough and then now it seems the evaluation is even tougher!!!!! many of my friends who apeared with geo and socio could not clar it… it seems literature is a safe bet!! Thinking of changing the optional…..

If there is anyone who have cleared mains with Geography optional?
If so please share your strategy.
Cleared Mains without any coaching, study-material etc., with job and without taking even a single day’s leave except on the mains’ exam days. Optional Geography
Place: Mumbai

hi friends myself satyendra . i got through CS(M) 2013 in my second attempt. Last year i appeared for IFS interview in P.K.Mishra’s board .i scored 190 in interview but couldn’t get through the final list due to poor performance in one of my optional which was agriculture. my second optional was botany with it i appeard this year in cs mains. My hobbies are chess ,cricket and reading urdu poetry. plz share some probable questions on these hobbies , specially on cricket. Last year in IFS interview there were not many que on my hobbies but then i had mentioned only chess and cricket.
I m very afraid of questions on cricket as some of my friend told me that since almost everybody mention cricket most of the board are very harsh when it comes to asking on cricket.Plz share ur thoughts and experience .it will be very helpful for me in my interview this time . Thanx.
Satyendra bhai thoda botany ka guidance de do… my email sandeep9cool@gmail.com
