I’ve closed the comment system, because aspirants wasting too much time in debate, rather than studying.
UPSC has uploaded the halltickets for CSAT-2014. No change in exam date. It’s same 24th august 2014, Sunday. No change in exam structure- same two papers. No change in negative marking, same 33%.
Link: upsconline.nic.in/eadmitcard/admit_card.php
Many people getting server down error, so try it later.
Warning
- For entering date of birth while downloading admit card: select year first, then month and then date in the end..else it will not get selected.
- any discrepancy in name, parent’s name, photo then send mail to web-upsc@nic.in
- You’ve to tick OMR answers only in BLACK pen. Otherwise you paper will not will evaluated.
- I recommend you bring clipboard. Reason: Sarkaari colleges and highschools have benches have rough surface and holes. It’ll “injure” your OMR sheet while you’re marking answer in black pen.
- if you’ve applied twice, then Use HIGHER REGISTRATION number while downloading the hallticket.
- If your hallticket doesn’t have clear photo/signature, you will have to bring a photo identity proof viz. Adhar Card, Driving License, Passport, Voter I Card etc. and two passport size photographs one for each paper with an undertaking.
- Save your own hallticket PDF file in google drive. So there is no fear of misplacing/forgetting roll number.
| Paper | Time |
| General Studies (paper 1) | 9:30 AM to 11:30 AM |

Hi friends…….Anybody who had aapeaed in ONGC Graduate Trainee written test (GT-2013…..yes GT 2013 and not 2014) held on 22 June 2014?
The written test had been cancelled by ONGC and a notice says that the box of test material was tampered somewhere in Delhi and police enquiry is going on. But “in the interest of fair conduct of the examination”, the entire recruitment proceedings had been cancelled and the fees will be refunded.

@ndtv English marks will not be included for gradation or merit in UPSC exam, MoS Personnel Jitendra Singh tells Lok Sabha: Press Trust of India
23 minutes ago
Yep..just heard this shit
Its a shame that Upsc again has to bow down bcoz of such useless politics.
http://ibnlive.in.com/news/upsc-csat-row-centre-says-english-language-skills-marks-wont-be-included-in-merit/490205-3.html
govt might hv undone the weightage of english from csat. But is it going to satisfy people who wanted to get csat scrapped altogether. Coz maths and di is still very much there.
and those will ensure cut off will remain high…or go higher if paper 1 is like last year
what the hell /: english k marks add nahi honge???? matlab? I’m out of the game now :(
matlab u only relied on those 22 marks…
are u sure that they are just talking about those 22 marks or complete english comprehension with hindi translation also….
No… I meant, those were the easiest questions!! now it would not be that easy to score well in 2nd paper. and with this the reaction was also momentary as I had just heard the news of eliminating english questions.
well, I don’t think protesters got anything out of this as the step is neither in favour of them nor in the other’s.
why r u thinking like dt its equal fr every one u can score well in other portion ..
And now govt removed the most easy section from CSAT.. lol ye to ulta pad gya.. hahahahahaha.. still its a cake walk for science graduate.
For CSAT- बदलकर फकीरों का हम भेष गालीब तमाशा ए अहलेकरम देखते हैं।
tamasha to humne bhi dekha tha, ab kya bataye sharam se sar jhuk gya us din.
Hi am new to this site.i have heard economy section here is very good.
could anyone please guide me on where to begin reading economy articles and in what order.
thoda confusing chhe!!!
You can follow the studyplans as per the exams you are aspiring for. Checkout Studyplantab. Take some time to explore and you can always find the topics you are looking for in the search toolbar!
Hope it helps..
Cheers!
Mrunal Sir,,,,I think everyone is desperately waiting for your analysis on what happened today in Parliament on CSAT row.
Please come out with a strategy plan for all of us
can anyone guide me on how to study the economy section here?
i mean from where to begin and in which order?
whats the use of expert committee , when govt. has to take decision on its own . Its totally Vote bank politics.
Jo kiya hai usse kounsa vote milne wala hai….
rightly said :)
क्या हुआ तेरा वादा वो कसम वो इरादा Govt.
खिलौना जानकर तुम क्यों मेरा दिल तोड़ जाते हो UPSC.
सरफरोशी की तमन्ना अब हमारे दिल मे है, देखना है जोर कितना बाजू ए कातील मे है CSAT.
aise hi gane gaate reh nikamme aadmi…budhha ho jaayega but tera prelims na niklega…
election me in sb cheejo ko koi dhyan nhi rakhta, i bet this time again bjp will win, Mark word,, even you can save this post!! You no nothing about amit shah, vaise bhi chand protestors lako logo k votes nhi decide kr skte, Baki best of luck.. agr aap muh-alayam ya nitish k samarthn me ho to.
those 8 questions of English comprehension which come before DM questions were the easiest questions of whole paper, which any one was able to solve , accha kaata hai govt ne aspirants ka, had the aspirants not made a big issue of hindi/english and had concentrated on translation issue ,which was seriously the genuine one, they would have got some respite but now the questions will appear with old method of translation only as the papers are already printed, sad end to whole drama this is.!!!!
Nikhil Sir,
I am liking your comment in all 1500 nonsense statements written. Ab maja aayega competition ka.
Ur absolutely right Nikhil.wo 8 questions barabar aate hai.rather than other large passages these r better to attempt
you are absolutely right Nikhil
it will be total cut throat..one question wrong and ur game endss
since science and engineers will attempt all and score 99 % nearly
English made optional.Now these hooligans will intensify their protests to demand scrapping CSAT completely.And then someday they would demand Civil Services be made walk-in first come first served citing descrimination because of entrance exams.These hooligans in my view deserve nothing.They are not the voice of majority of aspirants.Instead of giving in to their stupid demands the govt should take strict action against them.The govt should not hesitate to even use force against them.Enough is enough!

Extremely poor manifestation of democracy ,Bizarre decision by Govt of India…I really doubt how many of the protesting guys will be appearing in the examination… If technocrats can totally change their track studying humanities ….whats the problem in having basic English … sad news for all serious aspirants… Modi government has turned to be clueless and indecisive on this issue..Achhe dinon ka pata nahi par mushkil din aane wale hein….

Tumhari soch ghatiyaa hai. Agar “english” medium waale IAS AC room mein baithj kar decision karte hain to tum “Hindi” medium IAS kya jhopdi mein baith kar decision lete ho ? Baithoge to tum bhi AC office mein hi. Nahin to wahan jaa ke bhi gundagardi karoge !!
Tumhare jaise deshdrohi desh ko divide karne ka kaam karte hain. Maths & English padhne mein tumhari phati padi hai. Isliye gunde mawaalion ki tarah sadak par lad rahe ho. Accha hoga ki koi bhi hindi gunday select na ho.
aasman mein thookoge to khud ke cehre par hi girega :-D
मै आपकी बात से पूरी तरह सहमत हूँ।
jitni achhi hindi yha likh pa rhe hai, utni hi achhi paper me likhte to shyad ye din na dekhne padte.
Bhai kahan achhi hindi likhi hai… Dekho dhyan se, bahot saari trutiyan hui hain inse hindi likhne mei, matrao ki bhool bhi hui hai
Sahi bole bhai. Zaroor google translator se translate karbaya hoga.
Uppsc me csat exam dene record tod number me jate hain, jab upsc ka csat ka baat aya, to anti-hindi, anti-regional language,anti-poor blah blah.
shirts T-shirts ho gaye,paijama jeans ban gaye, phone smart ohone ban gaye, passport pics selfie ban gaye, par mehnat kar ke marks nahi rakh paye!
wo trtiya typing ke karan hai jyda smart mat bano.
wo trutiya typing ke karan hui hai .jyada smart mat bano meri hindi achhi hai.
Tumhari gandi aur choti soch par mujhe ghin aati hai. Samaj sevak ban jaao…aur civil services hum jaise laal gaalon ke liye chhod do.
kyo be sacchai kadwi lagi tum jese log nahi chahte ki garibo ke gaal bhi gulabi ho mtlb smradh ho gandi soch teri hai jo gulabi word ko kahi or jod raha ye vyang to munsi premchnadne bhi use kiya hai. u narrow minded ghin muje tere jese amiri ki pedish se aati hai jo garibo ka khun chuste hai .swiss bank me haramiyo ne kitna pesa jma kar rakha hi janta ka khun chuskar capitalist lal mote taje ho rahe hai or garib kisan kewal 40 ssal me mar jata hai
beta….. the thing u r saying have no connection with CSAT. Agar gareebi hi hatani h to itna mehnat kyun , bank mein clerk ban k b garibi hat jayegi. Civil Services is all about best administrators and if all gareeb are 100% best administrators then sari seat unhi ko dedo.
Aur ek baat bolun sab nahi but jyada tar gareeb hi ghuuuskhori karte hain to raise their status level in terms of property and assets.
CAT ko urban level tumne kaha h , but reality is bahut saare log ( my friends also ) unka aim paisa kaman hota h but with right way, So they go MBA from IIM and xyz top institute. Aur seat free mein nahi milti, CAT mein b galaa kaat competition h . If u dare then only u can win ,
stop criticizing Exam pattern. Tum logon statements padh k ek story yaad a jaati h , ” Angoor khatte hain , fox and grapes story ” , Civil service qualify karne ki aukaat nahi to CSAT ko blaim karke apne aap ko kab tak andher mein rakhoge .
Bhai tu ye comments smart phone se kar raha he ki laptop se?
thofa confirm karna tha ki tu kitna garib he?
delhi me coaching le ke itna to pata chal hi gaya he ki tum jaise kuch lig kyun civil services exam dete ho.
pRe clear hua to 5 lakh dowry, mains clear hua to 10, aur final selection hua to SP MLAs ya MPs ke damad.
so just shut ur mouth and dnt try to be Karl Marx, samjhe sociology optional wale.
@Akhangal What kind of person you are????? What do you mean by mostly garib hi ghuskgori karta hai to raise his assets/property. Wah bahiya garib ko khane ko toh roti nahi hai and you are generalising the fact that garib=ghuskhor. I strongly object to that. Didn’t you hear about Syndicate bank’s top boss 50 lac bribe, F1 boss’s bribery case settlement, Raju from satyam, raja etc they all are #garib#.
Guys ike you have no knowledge of where the real India stands, you are just preparing because its a fashion to prepare for civil service.
I am not in favour of those protesting completely, but one thing i know for sure is that If a guy like you gets through this pattern of UPSC CSE then this pattern is bullshit.
Jaise tu bada garibon ka himayati hai naa….
Yahan par isliye bhonk raha hai kyonki upsc aur govt. ne tere muh se haddi cheen li. Yeh sara naatak sirf csat scrap karne ke liye hi kar raha hai. Koun sa tujhe garibon ki chinta hai ? Agar hai to civil service mein mat aao…samaj sevak bano. Ssale phattu
@raka ha ha Haan aaja bhai tuh bhi aaja, Naya namoona(Sample). Pappu i am B-tech from an IIT and MBA from IIMA and i score handsomely in CSAT. Had objected to particular remark.
Tu Bhaunkne se pehle itna toh dekh le what i am writing about. Or you are not able to control your doggy instincts to bark here and there without any purpose.
And you should be the last person on earth to preach about how to do social service. Now go study and get into civil service agar dam ha toh.
And ask your pappa to teach you how not be uncivilized in your behaviour by using words like “bhaunk”. You are no better than rioting goons of delhi.
Super like!
Laal gaal toh tere tab bhi ho jayenge jab unpe bajenge char-paanch zordaar…
Govt saya English marks will not be considered for cutoff in Paper-II. It means now we have test of 380 marks provided UPSC agrees to it. However, there has been no change to the aptitude section and there is a chance that the students from Hindi belt will once again start protests.
actually maths is the real fear for these so called protesters. Ab seedehe nahi bol paaye ki bhaiya maths na pad payenge hum. So took hide behind language issue hoping csat will be scrapped. They will be in a worse position now.
Kat gai CSAT protest karne walon ki bhi aur nahi karne walon ki bhi …..
Ab to protestor khus honge ki ” level play” ho gaya hai …
Protest karne walon, ab agli bar bhi 2014 IAS exam ka final result dekh lena ….. 26 se 20 bhi aa sakta hai ….
Sirf apna aur dusron ka katwaya hai in protest karne walon ne ….. Ab age kya karenge ye ? Exam to 24 ko hi ho raha hai…..
Guess, the government decision NOT to consider english comprehension marks has backfired on the face of Hindi medium goondas. They lost easy to get marks on these passages which are comparatively easy than quant and reasoning questions. Now the whole burden is on maths. Try to spit on the sky and the spit landed on their face. Isse achha hota ki CSAT ko scrap karne ka demand hin rakhte. Ise kehte hain….jo dusron ke liye kabr khodte hain usme khud hi gir jaate hain. LOL
by mistake I entered KMAR instead of KUMAR in my application.I have sent upsc a mail requesting for change. what should I do now ???????????
Finally a decision has been taken and brought relief about the schedule. According to the protesters they are discriminated because of CSAT, which means all those who pass(discriminated candidates) prelims must qualify mains and so also interview, because there is no other hurdle, with full level playing, no statistics and most important they have to compete only dumb engineers who have passed only because of aptitude?
but this is not the case, because reasoning whether analytical or critical is there in every step! U cant write a good gs answer if u cant analyse critically.
so everybody should try to overcome her weakness by putting extra efforts,cz this Iis the need of the hour. Everybody doesnt get posted in UP or Bihar where a civil servant has to clean the shoes of the politician,there are states like Odisha or Gujarat or Andhra Pradesh where a civil servant is given so much of autonomy, respect and the like.
So grow up and try to improve your selves.
Sab prabhu ki leela……Govt. kya mast decision hai aapne….superb……aur karlo protest…..Sabse easiest part ko hi hata dia…..mast…
A suggestion to all muggers, k bas karo protest nahi to kuchh din me GS ka paper bhi hata degi UPSC aur khali CSAT ke basis pe slection hoga…hahahhahaha
OMG!! I miss u friends. UPSC to sabse smart nikala. They scrapped the easiest section for all students.
Maths+ reasoning to kabhi nahi jayegi and it’s been 3yrs and more with this patttern and still u are not able to adapt urself with this silly pattern. Grow up guyz as every1 is not going to be an IAS so practice maths+rasoning so that u can atleast become a Clerk.

Your comment reminds me of my favorite movie “gangs of wasseypur”–> Teri kah k lunga :)
UPSC & Govt. मुझ पर एक एहसान करना की मुझपर कोई एहसान मत करना। एक दिन ऐसा भी आएगा जब चारों दिशाओं मे हिन्दी भाषा का बोलबाला होगा। जय हिंद. वंदे मातरम्।
Aur bhi languages hai india me,hindi akeli nhi hai, what about my mother tongue han, I like gujrati i dont want to appear with hindi medium why are you so biased? Sb apni apni dekhne me lage hai. Hosh me aao tanik!! , I speak gujrati, marathi, hindi, english,
Kya bhai, dhoond dhoond ke ravi kumarji ke class re rahe ho?
lagta he ravi ji movies bohut dekhte hain, tabhi to pareshan hain, ki csat practice karenge to dialogue kab yaad karenge…..
ravi ji fanah movie v dekh lo usme kafi achi sayarian hain, kam se kam amir khan to yaad ayega.
Ravi Kumar..tu pagal hai..yahan bakwaas mat kar…
Ek aur question, kya deshbhakt hone k liye hindi ka aana jaruri hai, kalam sahab ko bhi nhi aati aur bhi na jane kitne log hai jinko hindi nhi aati, paper nhi clear kr skte, km se km apne swarth k liye desh ko bhasha k nam par bantana bnd kro,
An IAS officer is supposed to deal with all sections of society , poor and rich alike. It is a very flawed argument that only those people who come from rural background can work for the upliftment of masses. To work for people and be successful, one needs compassion, commitment and capability.Taking to streets for protest against CSAT shows a defeatist attitude. How can the country and its people expect such people to work against all odds for the welfare of the country when they can not man up against the challenge faced by them. The exam demands basic skills which are necessary for the job of a civil servant.The protestors are embarrassed to accept they do not have the required reasoning and quant skills, and are hiding behind the issue of discrimination on the basis of language.
burning buses,destroying public property,I present to you the future Administrators. Scary:(
At least the govt is now taking a tough stand on not scrapping of the entire CSAT paper.. finally, I am feeling relieved that no more changes will be made in the preliminary exam… CSAT is a basic reasoning test based on a scientific pattern which is necessary to be present in a candidate aspiring to become an IAS officer…
And for all the pro hindi (pro goonda) political parties, there will never be a single vote from me in elections for you… ;)
These protesting humanities students think that scrapping csat will help them pass the exam definitely it will not help them. It will help only those who have money to pay to coaching factories for several years and mugup each subject and pass.
Can anybody plz explain what does govt present stand i.e. “”English language comprehension skills’ should not be included in gradation or merit” means…..???
1) English comprehension passages will be there in csat, but aspirants need not to attend them…. if this is the case what will be the max marks in paper 2….???
or
The question paper not at all contain the English comprehension passages….???
2)What do govt mean by comprehension passages…..??? Is all the questions with out Hindi translation or any other criteria will be given…???
Regards,
From next year (for CSE 2015) govt want to change prelims pattern. The first paper and second paper will be mixed with reduced weightage on aptitude ( numeracy, logical etc) and more emphasis on ethics and decision making part. Still the paper will be GS1 and GS2, but CSAT name will be removed to satisfy protesters. From 2015 question papers will be printed in all indian languages under 8th schedule of constitution. But English will be common and option will be given to select another medium for question paper selection..
Baba, provide source , other wise it will be like an another rumor.
And if they do some change in pattern still paper will publish only in two official language i.e English and Hindi.
Because inclusion of all language will lead to a disaster , coz after that in every exam candidate will start demanding for regional language.. like CAT, CLAT etc. so its not possible.
ohh Vakkoda , abhi committee ko fir se kaam shuru karna h , Mains k baad hi kuch naya khabar ayega… stop this yaar.
I really appreciate South Indian aspirants who writ this exam in English medium despite of their regional language education. No doubt, a rural student from a rural south Indian village reaches to top echelons in all fields on the basis of their hard work and intellect. They do no WHINE about their disadvantages unlike these North Indians (yes, UP and Bihar). UPs and Biharis do nothing in their life but migrate to Delhi and dream about getting into civil service and that to at cost of others and with easy option of rota subjects like humanities. Actually these UP and Biharis have no brains and gut but only BUTT to lick. I seriously pray to God and government to kick such aspirants out of the selection process. I hate caste-ism, regionalism but these anti-CSAT row is corroding my mind.
UPs and Biharis are good in only one thing….CRIME. Get a career in that. Civil Service is NOT FOR U.
