Dear UPSC –

When you read Statement No. 3 and wonder :

  • Was that sarcasm?
  • Or maybe it’s UPSC’s way of presenting to students a light-hearted moment in the middle of a stressful test?
  • WAAAAIT, is this a tactic to screen for anti/nationalist tendencies? If so, screen in or out? Omg, has the day come?

Answer is option (a), good to know that was uncalled for. Or maybe it’s a screening out process 😀

For those who want to know how my test went, maybe I’ll write about it in another post. One exam joke is quite enough for a day. Here’s the full paper –

  1. I remember a few “divergent” choices which were there for the UGC NET exams too. There is something strange about these exams, and I feel it further strange that I might be writing it again.
    As a kid, I used to think that I won’t have to write that many exams when I was older, but here I am, facing more.
