Paper was on tougher side. Tough questions-35 Medium questions - 36 Easy/Doable Questions- 29 My Cut off Prediction this year- 80(+-)2

Is there anyone seriously thinking about the pattern and types of questions being asked in the paper? Deployment of Army Corps? Seriously?😳

Today’s paper was not just tough; it was chaotic, unpredictable, and unfair . It felt less like an examination of knowledge and more like a test of endurance under uncertainty. But despite everything, you still showed up, stayed strong, and gave your best in one of the most uncertain exam environments possible.

All the best to all 🧿
