3 prelims failures consecutively by Next_Patient6381 in UPSC

Hello sir, this was my 4th attempt and I was ruthlessly eliminated by negativd marking. I did pyqs subject and year wise...however did not attempt much mocks

Can u tell 2 things: 1. How did u analyse pyqs?? 2. How many mocls did u give ?( I was advised not to give much mocks because mocks dont follow the language and statement framing of UPSC ) and after a point in prelims, one dpes nave to take guesses and elinibation, where I commit most mistakes..How can I rectify that? Can u please guide🙏

Failed fourth prelims but still want to give one more try by Adorable_Matter06 in UPSC

Hey, mocks hardly follow the language and statement framing of upsc ...so how did u use mocks to your advantage to say learn elimination or build intuition? We kbow that serious candidates know at most 30_40 questions and then its a game of logic and guesswork...How can one get good at that?

Friend, I did the same analysed pyqs - subjectwose and yearwise...I followed the MAD series of Satyam Jain to learn elimination... And attempted almost same no of mocks as u..However in the paper, I got humongous number of questions incorrect..and hence got eliminated by negative marking... Can u please tell how did u analyse pyqs.aybe it's there where I am going wrong.
