UPSC has dropped its answer key and yes, as expected, some answers are as surprising as the Budget being presented by the FinMin on behalf of the PM.
Has it happened for the first time? Of course not. (Remember, Right to Vote? Finance vs Financial Bills?)
Can it happen again? Absolutely. It’s practically tradition at this point.
But come on... life is unfair, right? And so is the marking scheme. So, relax... It’s not personal. Everyone’s boat is rocking equally.
Wrong answers will hurt everyone. No one’s getting a special pass here. Not even the toppers with 7 highlighters.
So what now? Trust your prep. Trust the process. Trust that your effort didn’t come this far to only come this far. And most importantly, don’t waste these last few days yelling at UPSC like a betrayed lover. It’s not listening (Just like your ex).
